Bedrock Directions and Trident Killers

Use cardinal directions when building Bedrock farms and understand the moving parts of a trapdoor-based trident killer.

Updated 2026-10-27 · Bedrock · Trident Killer · Farm Building

Bedrock farms can depend on the direction a block faces. Before building a design, check the cardinal directions in-game and compare them with the tutorial. This matters especially for observers, pistons, portal layouts, and trident-killer chambers.

How a trapdoor trident killer works

A trapdoor-based trident killer uses the chamber geometry and moving blocks to keep thrown tridents in a controlled path while mobs are held in the kill space. The correct orientation and timing are important: copying the footprint while rotating key components can cause tridents to miss or mobs to escape.

Raid farm ravager checks

The lava should be one block below the intended ravager position.
The ravager should be pushed up into the water so it takes lava damage.
Remove extra gates and compare the build with the tutorial if the ravager is not entering the water correctly.
