Mob Drops and Loot That Sell

Mob drops and loot DonutSMP players sell - totems, ender pearls, blaze rods, bones and more - and how they get them.

How mob drops are sold

Mob drops are sold like any other item. /sell puts your items into the buy orders for that item at the order's price, and anything nobody buys comes back to your inventory [1]. You can also list items on the auction house (/ah), where you set the asking price [2]. DonutOrders warns that "The top order only wants so many", and past that the price drops [3]. For more on the market, see Economy.

Since the 2% tax of November 11, 2026, the seller pays no tax when selling into orders with /sell. On the auction house the buyer pays the tax, and the player who places a buy order pays it when placing the order [4].

The June 2-3, 2026 update removed /shop [2]. Right after it, BasicRedstone and Artumpkin called enderman farms the "new meta" [5][6], and Brown Mushroom posted a totem farm "after /shop removal" [7].

Live prices for every drop below are on the fan price tracker DonutOrders, which takes its prices from the in-game /orders [1].

Totems of Undying (raid farms)

In vanilla Minecraft, evokers drop totems. Evokers spawn in woodland mansions and in raids, and each one always drops one totem [8]. On DonutSMP, players get totems from raid farms:

  • On June 9, 2026, Brown Mushroom posted "NEW Best Totem Farm after /shop removal (DonutSMP)", a totem and raid farm heavily inspired by another creator's design [7]. On August 10, 2026, the same channel posted a "Raider V2 Totem Farm" that it describes as extremely small [9].
  • On August 12, 2026, BasicRedstone posted a raid and totem farm "made for Donut SMP", for Minecraft Java 26.2+. The video description says it gives totems, redstone and emeralds [10]. Redstone Guide (August 31, 2026) and Vanquid (October 3, 2026) built farms based on BasicRedstone's design [11][12]. Vanquid's video tests how much money the farm makes [12].

Killing a raid captain also gives an ominous bottle. A February 2026 blog post describes getting one this way near a pillager outpost and selling it [13].

Live prices: totem of undying, emerald.

Ender pearls (enderman farms)

In vanilla Java Edition, an enderman drops 0-1 ender pearls (0.5 on average), and Looting I, II and III raise the average to 1, 1.5 and 2 [14]. Pearls also come from piglin bartering and from expert-level cleric trades [14].

Several pearl farm videos came out in the week after the June 2026 update:

  • On June 4, 2026, the channel archivePedro posted "200M/DAY PEARL FARM? - DONUTSMP" [15].
  • On June 5, 2026, BasicRedstone posted an enderman farm for DonutSMP. The description says that "Since the shop was removed ender pearls are one of the most valuable items on the server" [5].
  • On June 9, 2026, Artumpkin called an enderman farm "the new meta after the recent update the removed /shop" [6].
  • On June 10, 2026, VarmiMC tested "the 'new meta' Ender Pearl farm everybody is talking about" to see whether it was good [16].

DonutOrders' piglin bartering page works out whether trading gold ingots to piglins beats selling them. Ender pearls are one of the less common barter results [17].

Live prices: ender pearl, eye of ender.

Gold nuggets (zombified piglins)

Zombified piglins drop gold nuggets, both from farms [3] and from zombified piglin spawners [18]. On November 11, 2026, DonutOrders named a gold farm selling gold nuggets its "Best all-rounder", saying "Nuggets are where the demand is" [3]. It says that gold ingots only drop when a player gets the kill, that a Looting sword raises nuggets per kill, and that spawning platforms beat portal farms [3].

Several 2026 videos show gold farms on DonutSMP. In an August 23, 2026 video, RyvenSMP said he made "$124,000,000 in just 1 hour" with his gold farm [19]. An October 17, 2026 video by Mr. Flanders says his gold farm was "Making 120m/h" [20].

Nine nuggets make an ingot and nine ingots make a block [3]. DonutOrders' blocks, ingots and nuggets page compares converting items between blocks, ingots and nuggets [21].

Live prices: gold nugget, gold ingot.

Ghast tears and gunpowder

DonutOrders (November 11, 2026) says ghast tears "need a large ghast farm in the Nether", and that over 800K were wanted [3]. Creators have published ghast farm designs:

  • In a September 15, 2026 video, Dropjawed said his farm makes "~125m/hour with 5 modules, or ~5,600 Ghast tears" [22].
  • In an October 19, 2026 video, Dropjawed said a newer farm produces "10,950 Ghast Tears/Hour", worth 2.6 billion a day through /sell and 4 billion a day on /ah [23].
  • On August 31, 2026, Liam And Logi built a ghast farm made to produce gunpowder and ghast tears [24].

Gunpowder also comes from creeper spawners [18] and creeper farms. In a July 3, 2026 video, RavvixSMP built a creeper farm and used the gunpowder to craft TNT to hunt down bases. He wrote that "people find you the second you start building" [25].

Live prices: ghast tear, gunpowder, TNT.

Bones (skeleton spawners)

Skeleton spawners drop bones and arrows. According to the fan-run Donutpedia wiki, they "tend to be among the most valuable" spawners [18]. The Minecraft Forum guide lists skeleton spawners as the source of bones for bonemeal [2]. Bones craft into bone meal, and bone blocks also craft into bone meal [13].

Since the June 2026 update the Shard Shop no longer sells spawners, so they are traded only between players [2]. Videos from before and after the update:

  • In January 2026, MyshCat posted "I Made $1,000,000,000 Using Skeleton Spawners on DonutSMP", which covers spawner stacking [26].
  • In August 2026, DanyZGone tested whether skeleton spawners were "Still Worth It", using a bone loader [27].

Donutpedia says stacking spawners "concentrates valuable resources in one location", and warns that many players hunt for bases to raid [18]. See Spawners FAQ and PvP, bases and raiding.

Live prices: bone, bone block, bone meal, arrow. DonutOrders' composting page compares the cost of making bone meal by composting with what bone meal sells for [28].

Wither skeleton skulls

DonutOrders (November 11, 2026) says wither skeleton skulls drop 2.5% of the time, or about 5.5% with Looting III, so they "come slowly" [3]. Creators posted wither skeleton farm videos for DonutSMP in April 2026: Poiztato ("Wither Skulls Turned Me into a MILLIONAIRE", April 7) and BobIsFound (April 11) [29][30].

Live price: wither skeleton skull.

Blaze rods and blaze powder

In vanilla, a blaze drops blaze rods only when a player or tamed wolf kills it, 0-1 per kill, and Looting raises the maximum [31]. Sources disagree on DonutSMP's blaze spawners. Donutpedia says they only produce blaze powder, and that blaze rods could be bought from the shop [18]. The Minecraft Forum guide lists blaze spawners as a source of blaze rods [2]. A February 2026 blog post, written while /shop still existed, says the market price of blaze rods was well above the shop's price [13]. The shop was removed in June 2026 [2].

Live prices: blaze rod, blaze powder.

Shulker shells

In vanilla Java Edition, shulkers have a 50% chance to drop a shulker shell, raised by 6.25% per level of Looting [32]. Since Java 1.17, a shulker hit by a shulker bullet can spawn another shulker, which makes shells renewable [32].

Live price: shulker shell.

Other drops

Other spawner drops include string and spider eyes (spider), iron ingots (iron golem), and raw beef and porkchop (cow and pig) [18]. Live prices: string, spider eye, iron ingot, slime ball, phantom membrane, rabbit's foot, leather, feather.

DonutOrders' best money farms post compares farms, and links to its money guides [3].

Rules for mob farms

The official rules (last updated November 11, 2026) ban macros for farming, listing "Mob grinding" as an example, and ban "Using Macros to collect or do anything in spawners" [33]. Auto-clickers are banned for repeatedly attacking entities and for auto-clicking spawners [33]. ESP that can "Highlight mobs" is banned [33]. Duplicating items "using bugs, glitches, or unintended game mechanics" is banned [33]. See Rules and Rules and bans FAQ.
