Ghast Farms

Ghast Changes

Due to the lag that is caused when Ghasts go through a Nether portal into the overworld, we have made some modifications to Ghast farm mechanics.

When a Ghast enters a Nether portal, it is automatically killed and converted into Ghast tears and gunpowder with the Looting III effect applied. Due to this change, all you need on Vanilla X is one small Nether portal and hoppers on either side to pick up the Ghast drops that come through the portal.

Additionally, you do not need an account on the overworld side to load the collection system, this is done automatically.

Simple Automatic Ghast Farm

Please note that due to Ghasts automatically dying, you do not need to resend the Ghasts back to the Nether, they die when entering the overworld, meaning you need to make your collection system there, not in the Nether as shown in the above tutorial.

Note: Due to the reduced spawn radius on Vanilla X, you are limited to how big you can make this farm. Make sure to remember you must be 24 blocks above the farm when you go to AFK it.

Donut-Shaped Ghast Farm

It is imperative that you orient your Donut Ghast Farm in the correct direction before building it. This direction changes according to each individual situation. You can use the following orientation tutorial to figure out how to orient your farm.

If your farm is not oriented correctly, it will not work.
