Deserts!

So yeah! Just thought I'd share with everyone the giant free darkroom called "The Desert".

What would you say if I told you they don't despawn in sunlight?
Most of them at least. c:

I know, I know. But they don't respawn once you've killed 'em, that's the key bit.

Yep. I thought about it right after posting. Derp.

Yes, I've run into those mobs while trying to dig sand. There is however a flaw with using it as a darkroom: it doesn't work during the day.

ha! i don't have that problem. i can't go out my house without wasting 8/9 of the daylight clearing out mobs
if i want them gone i jut log out and rejoin. that causes them to despawn

While, yes, any area of Fenderfell or Daendroc could be a good grinding area, at night, presuming that you have more than just yourself there to grind, they dissapate in the day, and my darkroom which is not even half dark spawns more than that with just me in there.

come look under my bed, all the dangers that lurk beneath...

I don't even really use my darkroom anymore since Massivemobs. Instead, I visit a nearby plains biome. Archery is easier there as I have more space than just 3 blocks height, and, ancient slimes can spawn there, which is not possible in a usual darkroom I think.
