    Is it just me, or do Ghasts seem to have a much lower spawn rate than usual? The only reason I notice this is because I'm constantly needing ghast tears, and I never find any ghasts after spending hours in the nether.

    Hmm... Odd. Either way, the lack of ghasts is quite odd and annoying.

    I think much of the issue is due to local spawn limit being filled with pigmen. It might be worthwhile to increase the spawn weighting of ghasts or decrease that of pigmen, in order to allow players an easier time finding ghasts.

    Should work fine, but ghasts need a minimum of 5x5 empty space to spawn, so it will need to be cleared very quickly for a chance at spawning one.

    Yeah, no. I can't very well make that, so... changing the spawn rates would be better and much appreciated.

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA, HAHAHAHAHA AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA, ooo boy, i'm sorry, i'm sorry, just couldn't help it, but seriously, you expect the admins to change the spawnrates just for you? use cursed earth, or go ontop of the nether, go a good distance high, and make a temporary farm, and remove it! works perfectally

    Let's see... For one, it would take up way too much space and redstone knowledge, of which I don't even have enough to make a hidden piston door without checking a video every single time. Also, I don't have nearly enough resources to be able to construct such a structure. Not to mention that from what I've heard, other people are having this same problem, so one structure wouldn't fix it.

    Well, I could... if a ghast would actually spawn for me, and if I could generate enough power to run a soul binder...

    So... a video which walls you through how to build it is not enough? And you would not have enough resources to make it anyways?

    Sounds like you are coming up worth reasons you don't need ghast tears.

    And no. We will not be raising the spawn limit.

    Fair enough. And I do need ghast tears, but that still doesn't change the fact that I wouldn't have enough resources to create a structure like that.

    Google is your friend. Their are many examples, I believe that was the second reault. The third one is for 1.8
