Today, I show you how to make that mob farm I've been making in the large scale Terraria videos! I hope this mob farm tutorial will help you as much as it helped me over the years! This farm is capable of multiple artificial biomes, and is even capable of bagging you a Rod of Discord, on top of endless loot and a limitless amount of coins! Thank you so much for watching, and I hope you enjoyed! Make sure to join that Discord and follow the Instagram below!

00:55 you can just bring 99 blocks and block swap the sides, that way you can measure with 100% accuracy

Here's a tip for those interested, build it in Pre-hardmode, the enemies are much more bearable. Also make sure to build it near the edge of the world, while "for the worthy" makes the Hallow and Corruption spread random, normal worlds make the two appear on a V shape, unless the corruption is already at your ocean, the chances of your farm getting infected are greatly reduced if not completely taken away, also if you're trying to farm Chaos Elementals, make sure to make the AFK spot unreachable to them, unless your playing a class that doesn't have them available, some Summons, Sentries, the Star Cloak (with enough defense and health regen) and the Vile Crystal Shard are great to speed up the killing the mobs, not allowing them to take over the mob cap, letting you farm a specific enemy more easily. Wishing y'all luck on future grinds!

10/10 would recommend. I've used this in every master mode world I've created. Genuine hell to make in ftw but it's definitely worth it.

i spent like an hour building and hollowing this out just to realise i got the X and Y measurements the wrong way round

For anyone making this farm, I have a few tips.

To reduce spawn rates while building the farm, place peace candles and drink calming potions. If you didn't know, sunflowers also reduce spawnrates. Place 2 blocks of dirt and hit them with a staff/axe of regrowth to turn them into grass or place 2 grass seeds on the dirt (purchased from the Dryad), and place a sunflower on the grass.

Measurements can get really annoying, so whenever I make this farm, I use this guide I made for myself to really help out. Maybe it'll help you too? :
Take the blocks you will be using for the outline and split them into stacks of: 168, 48, 1, 50, 167, 84, and 84. Make sure these stacks are at the bottom of your inventory, and that they're all marked as favorite. Make sure that if you have more of those blocks separate from the stacks, keep them in your hotbar so if you break any of those blocks, they'll go back into the main stack in your hotbar and not one of your important ones that will be used for the outline of the farm.
Place 168 blocks horizontally on the bottom of your farm.
ON TOP of that final 168th block, place another 48 vertically.
Place one more block ON TOP of that 48th block, and place torches on its side to mark it, as this block is your halfway point. It is exactly in the middle vertically! This will SIGNIFICANTLY help later on to know this now.
Place 50 more blocks vertically on top of that halfway point block.
Now we have the outline pretty much done. Simply fill in the rest of it (by placing 167 more blocks horizontally, and the remaining vertical blocks.
Once you're ready to place that layer in the middle where the mobs will be spawning, remember that torch marked block? Yeah, we're going to be using that now.
As you start building the bridge, a TON of enemies will be spawning and attacking you. Simply drink a gravitation potion and build the bridge upside down, and the mobs will be on the other side of the platform and unable to get you. Place 84 blocks horizontally, and place a torch on top of it. Place 1 more block next to it and put a torch on top of that one, and fill in the remaining 83 blocks. Those two blocks with torches on them are in the center of the farm horizontally.
And there you go! That's how I do the outline without any mistakes, and without having to think too hard about it.


Remember to use luck boosting items, such as garden gnomes, and any luck boosting accessories. The lucky horseshoe found on sky islands (and any other version of it such as the lucky horseshoe balloon) along with the lucky coin from the Pirate Invasion both increase your luck and they stack with each other to get even greater luck.

If you're farming chaos elementals, remember they and enchanted swords can get into your safe area and kill you. And you can't just respawn, since there won't be any background walls behind you. To counteract this, you can simply just use a summoners build and summon minions to protect you, and place a campfire and heart lantern to help with regeneration if the enemies ever hurt you. You can also equip a spore sac from Plantera to help, and it will also help you get some rare banners, such as mimic and nymph banners. Otherwise, just make a nights edge and equip feral claws and make sure it's always swinging as it goes around in a circle around you, protecting you from the enemies.
Despite what Waffle said, I'm 99.9999% sure that being grappled isn't enough to let chaos elementals spawn. An easy solution for this is to equip frog legs (you get them from fishing) and make sure you're constantly holding down the jump button. If you're using a keyboard, put something heavy on the spacebar. If you're using a controller, get a few rubber bands and a coin. Place the coin the jump button and wrap the rubber bands around the controller in a way that pins down the coin. This also works on the "attack" button if you're using Nights Edge, though for this you don't need another coin.

Good luck with your farm (:

a good tip is to use Dungeon blocks to outline the Farm because dugeon blocks are resistant to explosions

A couple things to make this farm a lot better:

1. Use a garden gnome and correct biome torches for increased luck (use bone torches bought from the skeleton merchant in normal caverns, and incorrect torches cancel out the effect). Increased luck means better loot, more money, and rarer enemies will spawn more often
2. Make sure to use a treasure magnet to collect the souls
3. If you want to use this to farm the rod of discord make sure you are continuously moving because chaos elementals don’t spawn if your standing still or not using items for more than 5 seconds. Flying mounts can do this. Auto jump from a frog leg, or a grappling hook, but grappling hooks only last 10 minutes.

I actually improved this design in a few small ways

-When making sure mobs can't spawn below, I walled the area off instead of using lava. I then placed a bunch of platforms down there, along with campfires and heart lanterns. Now if you convert the area into Hallow or Corruption/Crimson you have a Biome Mimic arena.

-You can wire up dart traps inside the lava pit to kill stuff faster

-You can add exactly the amount of blocks needed to make it Underground Hallow/Corruption/Crismon, then remove/place one to essentially turn them on/off. This is handy to prevent Biome mimics from killing your AFK session.

The sigma strat that I used to measure is by splitting blocks into 99 and 168 so you don't have to do the torch thing

4eli's epic tips *bad to the bone opening riff*
- you can use dungeon blocks and unsafe dungeon walls (blue/green/pink brick walls into shimmer) to farm golden keys and paladins
- use campfires/torches of the respective biome and a garden gnome to boost your luck with drops
- use a summon for mobs that get in (if they even can idk)
- back to tip one but with lihzahrd bricks for epic stuff like solar tablet fragments and power cells
- use a greedy ring or a lucky coin to get extra coins
- if you are using the greedy ring, you can put quick damaging summons in the pit for more coins (e.g, slime staff, blade staff)
that wraps up 4eli's epic tips

I've seen alot of videos like this, and I always go to make it in a new playthrough, you BY FAR, explained it the best and even added specific biome configurations. Thanks, you can also add temple traps like spiky ball trap and arrows in the kill chamber trust me its great.

I highly recommend Granite as the uncorruptible block of choice. Not only are Granite biomes fairly large and easy to excavate into the farm, but the Golems and Elementals have 3 drops in particular that make it very worth it, especially in PreHardmode:

1. Night Vision Helmets: this lets you instantly craft the Ultrabright Helmet, which can be used to great effect in your Mining Loadout with the rest of the Mining Armor. They also sell decently after the first one.

2. Geodes: for the big bucks, Geodes are an item you can toss to get tons of Gems like Amethysts, Rubies, and Diamonds, which you can use for things like Gem Weapons, King Slime summons, etc., but they're very valuable to just straight up sell after slamming them into a wall.

3. Spaghetti: Spaghetti gives you a MAJOR improvement to all stats for 8 minutes, which is about the same amount of time as most buff potions, especially combat potions. And you're gonna be getting about as much Spaghetti as a Hotel Mario YouTube Poop.

This may take a while but it pays off! Platinum early game when corruption or crimson starts to get out of hand for a clentaminator is so useful. Along with this you can also get many accessories and mob drops! 10/10 great video thank you!

OMG I had this farm and placed 300 ice blocks thinking that was enough and after having it not working I was just gonna give up on it but then I looked at basically the same farm but your version and I realized I was so wrong thank you <3

You need hardened sand block walls behind the player for a desert biome. These walls can be crafted with hardened sand blocks and a workbench in a graveyard biome. Without the walls there are no underground desert enemies spawning.
