My definitions of XP grinders and mob traps/looters XP grinder: When you obtain/find a mobspawner, put water under it which flows to a 23 block drop. Stand at top by spawner for a while then head to bottom and punch those suckers. Mob traps/looters: Pretty much a massive dark room with water flowing towards the middle, that either leads them to a drop in which they die and you get loot or a water system which kills them with lava and keeps their drops and sends them to you. OK here is the layout for a Mob Trap, just add a roof and either a system down that middle hole that kills them by fall damage or lava or a 23 block deep hole to leave mobs at half a heart of health when they hit. You can add multiple stories to this. i.imgur.com/u24jJ.jpg

I love making mob traps where it just kills them and I get their things. Its the easiest way!

I've never made an actual big-full mob looter, but I have done several small ones near mob spawners.
It's just way too much work to get a real mob looter to work.

I don't find it that hard, except on PvP servers. It's way too time-consuming and tedious to make a mob tower purely out of obsidian.

Well, I don't find it hard, I just said I find it's too much work. Takes so long time.

Takes me roughly 10 minutes and it is worth it considering you would spend hours to get the amount of loot you get with it in 10 minutes.
