@firefish5000 Wait, does M.O.S.E.S count as griefing?

Grief them fishies!

"The Horseman comes, and tonight he comes for you!"

Isn't Bigger than Life a play or something? Or am I thinking of something else entirely.

@ViciousKangaroo Gotta tp out.
How about this. Set home on a block above a pressure plate next to the trap. Connect the pressure plate to a clock firing arrows or potions. When they tp to you, you tp home, break the block and land on the pressure plate to trigger the clock.

@ViciousKangaroo I tried this on my self and it didnt suffocate me!

It's not supposed to, it makes it so you can't break or place blocks to escape. Then you can kill them with arrows or harming potions while they're stuck there.

They can climb panes and iron bars and the like, but they will get stuck at the top if there is a block on top.
Doors is interesting, haven't tried that before.

Just tested this at a second monument and had an elder guardian disappear right in front of me.
I would imagine this is very easy for admin to reproduce using summon commands if confirmation is needed.
Any chance of this being modified? I was able to easily raid a monument with nothing more than an iron pick and a few blocks, to my mind that shouldn't be possible.

We're all to scared of you iwarriiori!

Here is cross-section of the trap

The sand is actually an entity hovering above the fences. This means that when you try to break a block you just hit the sand instead. You cant place any blocks because the entity is in the way. Ender pearls hit the sand sand entity and teleport you nowhere (I think). You cant jump out because of the slabs above.
It is actually possible possible to mine your way out if you stand on the very edge of a block, and face in one of the cardinal directions. However this is really difficult to do and will be impossible when taking damage ticks.

As of 1.8 they can climb all blocks with a hitbox that impedes the player, including glass. The buggers will climb anything that takes up 1 block of space.

What are you trying to do?

@tsu Chorus fruit for being trapped in a space

Chorus fruit teleportation is easily blocked

@tsu water bucket for a fall trap, Fire res for a lava trap,

Trap I have doesn't use either

@tsu tp out for a drown trap

I think this is pretty much the only way to escape my 'lil trap. By running away. Also, if you don't react fast enough you won't be able to tp due to damage

On an unrelated note, you could make a pretty entertaining trap using 20hz clock to make mob-only doors. Wouldn't' be inescapable, but sure would surprise someone.
