Minecraft Dungeons:Tutorials/Farming

There are various ways to automate or semi-automate the gathering of resources, and even more ways to efficiently and quickly find specific gear. Farming is the process of gathering the resources through the use of repetition and exploiting game mechanics.

Speedrun Farms
Skipping past mobs to get the completion reward, or reliably opening chests is often the fastest way to farm for gear. Using a in combination with  and other speed boosts/cooldown reductions, it's possible to speed through mobs and get the loot without fighting.

has various skips with rolling and jumping over terrain. It used to be faster where it could be done in less than 30 seconds using an exploit to skip the puzzles. Mouse-clicking on the door to the chest room while pressing the gamepad's "activate" button ignores the wall normally opened by the puzzles. The exploit was patched by making the mouse cursor disappear when moving with the controller. With cross-platform out, this makes the game more fair for everyone playing together.

has a secret obsidian chest near a gold chests and a. Run to the, past the locked door there is a sub-section containing the chests, but there is a bug where the obsidian chest room often cannot be entered, because of the incorrect camera angle. A bit further into the level after the sub-section there is a and a mini-boss (usually an ).

AFK Farms
Various Locations have an unlimited supply of enemies spawning and attacking you. Pumpkin Pastures has a section after the ambush at the bridge where two switches must be flipped to lower the drawbridge and continue. There are also various places where s appear, like the Redstone Mines.

Scripted
Auto-clickers and macro programs such as Auto Hot Key make it easy to run a script to fight and use abilities while away.

A simple Experience and Emeralds farming loadout discovered in beta uses in conjunction with the armor enchant Health Synergy

This can be expanded to be any Summons and the use of Health Synergy armor and optionally a. Since Summons do not provide souls, it is not possible to utilize.

Prospector increases the Emeralds quite a bit, so if automation is the method, holding attack while in a corner allows a player to attack enemies as they come, giving the prospector bonus.

Non-Scripted
Health Synergy armor and Final Shout can create an infinite loop, which heals you and activates your artifacts whenever you take enough damage. Of coarse this loadout still needs ways of killing mobs, so a summon or two can be great.
