Similarly one may ask, can you pick up a mob spawner?
4 Answers. You can't obtain Mob SpawnersinVanilla Survival. No you cannot get mobspawners.You can only use cheats to getthem.
how high does a mob grinder need to be? For mobs to spawn very efficiently you wanttobe 128 blocks away from any other potential spawning pointsforthem (blocks with block light lower than 8), so youshouldbe 128 blocks above the highest block in an 128x 128 areaaround your spawner. I think the best wouldbe around24 blocks for the floor.
Keeping this in view, is there a way to make mob spawners spawn faster?
Spawners can be used to make veryeffective"Mob Grinders", as they spawn more mobsfasterwhen a player is in the spawner's vicinity.The best wayto make one is by first make a largedark room aroundthe spawner, then place down a "floor"3–5 blocks belowthe spawner.
