However, 2D farms can only be built in the overworld, meaning a shulker has to be transported from the end through the main portal gateway. 2D farms make use of portals, which are a highly effective way of removing shulkers from the region around the breeding shulker, and also provide for a large number of teleportable spaces (with relatively few blocks).

However cell-based farms also need a way of moving shulkers away from the region around the breeding shulker.Īnother key consideration is 2-dimension (2D) versus single dimension (1D) farms. In both cases, these farms are reliant on having a large number of teleportable spaces for the breeding shulker(s). Both designs have their strengths and weaknesses, with reactors tending to be a lot simpler, but being larger, and usually requiring significantly more blocks placed for the same rates. On the other hand, reactors rely on having a large number of effective breeding cells, and just let the number of shulkers naturally saturate, collecting drops from within the reactor as shulkers gradually die off. Cell based designs maintain a shulker in a breeding cell, removing the duplicated shulkers from around the breeding cell as quickly as possible. There are two main approaches to shulker farming, cell-based designs, and reactors. The probability is reduced for shulkers with less than half their health remaining. The chance of this happening decreases with the amount of shulkers in an 8-block radius when more than 5 shulkers are present in the area, no shulkers will spawn. The shulker spawns where the old shulker was before it teleported. The hit shulker must have its lid open to spawn a new shulker. There is a chance that a new shulker of the same color will spawn when one shulker hits another shulker (or itself) with a shulker bullet.
