Employing Golems, Mobs, and Traps to Protect Your Minecraft Base!
Tip: The video above demonstrates many things you can employ to protect your Minecraft base, check it out!
#3 – Build Traps
Building traps is a given to protect anything. The video we have above demonstrates how you can build electric fences as traps to support your base and give it higher defense. In addition, consider digging up a lava trap to easily dispose of mobs and players. Place these traps where people least expect them to be. This applies the most to the lava traps. Think of unconventional places like staircases and not near the entrance or storage units.
You can also employ multiple traps in different places to completely safeguard your belongings. Being unorthodox with the placement of the traps aids a lot in fortifying your base.
#2 – Invest in Mobs
There are lots of mobs you can get as pets to ensure that your base stays secure. The Golem is the most used out of all of them and a lot of bases have these mobs near front gates because they are really difficult to take down. Combine these mobs with adequately placed traps to catch your enemies off guard and secure your base. We have a tutorial on How to Make an Iron Golem if you are interested in increasing the defense of your base. Click here to check it out!
You can also employ Elder Guardians if you are building an underground base but that is a different story. There are plenty of tutorials that will show you how you can get some guardians around your base.
#1 – Choose a Quiet Place
Choosing a place that is quiet, secluded, and lesser known is your best bet in decreasing the chances of your base being under siege. People with TNTs cannot attack your base and steal from it if they cannot find it. There are ways you can build invisible walls around your base to make it stronger. However, building in a place no one expects you to be is the best way to protect your treasure and resources.
Building a place thousands of blocks away from general spawn points can help in keeping your base discreet and undiscoverable. We have attached a tutorial for invisible walls if you need it. You can find it above.
