Planning Farms Around Blocked Traders and Vanilla Mobs
Before building pens around your Drygmy charms, check which vanilla creatures and trading NPCs are restricted by the blacklist. Capturing blocked mobs for an automatic farm wastes time and effort because Drygmy workers will completely ignore them.
Blocked Traders and Raid Enemies
Do not place the following NPCs or vanilla enemies into a Drygmy setup, as they will never generate automatic drops:
- Trading NPCs: Villagers, Wandering Traders, normal Goblin Traders, and underground Vein Goblin Traders.
- Illagers: Pillagers, Vindicators, and Evokers.
- Vanilla Bosses: The Ender Dragon and the Wither.
Alternative Ways to Get Their Rewards
1. House Villagers, Wandering Traders, and both types of Goblin Traders in safe, accessible trading halls rather than Drygmy pens, and trade with them manually when you need their wares.
2. Prepare a combat area or traditional raid arena when you need drops from Pillagers, Vindicators, and Evokers, since Illager loot cannot be passively gathered by Drygmy workers.
3. Gear up for direct boss fights whenever you need rewards from the Wither or the Ender Dragon, fighting them the normal way in your survival world.
