I see YouTubers amongst other people talking about lava farms every time they see dripstone. They seem very excited when they see
✨The Dripstone Cave✨
-and immediately mention lava farm.
Why? Doesn’t it take literal hours irl to get a few buckets? Isn’t it quicker to fill 10 buckets from a lava lake in the nether than to make 10 buckets from a lava farm?
What makes a lava farm so appealing? Why wouldn’t you take the opportunity to drain an entire nether lava lake?
I think when I start branching out I’ll make pop up lava farms instead of hauling kelp over thousands of blocks.
I still want to stay where I am for at least another 1,200 days tho. Currently on day 300 and making something pretty cool at spawn
