Superfast guardian XP farm that doesn't require draining the ocean monument and can be built in under 30 min if you know what you're doing. Produces XP a little faster than you can absorb it, at 180,000 XP per hour, and can generate about 90k drops per hour (dph) with Looting 3 (50k shards+20k crystals+20k cod).
* In 1.18+, the rates are about 74k dph (41k shards+16.5k crystals+16.5k cod). You can add an additional spawning area to the farm to compensate for the lower spawn rates in 1.18+:

NOTES
5:28 You can get a sweeping edge sword as an initial trade with a weaponsmith. This shouldn't take more than a few minutes of rerolling the initial trade offers.
6:14 Many fishermen will trade raw cod for emeralds at the second tier.
6:24 A cartographer offers a map to find ocean monuments at the second tier.
6:30 In 1.18+, the monument is not necessarily centered in the 4x4 chunk area, so the chunk borders may not be a good substitute for counting blocks. For example, if the tutorial states to go out by 1 chunk diagonally, you'll need to count out 16 blocks instead. The farm does not require chunk alignment.
6:45 You can build the farm to use one of the "back" corners of the monument.
7:05 I actually choose the wrong "side" of the monument for the tutorial. The 2 islands in the background will permit spawning of other mobs at night, and I should use torches to light up those islands to fix.
8:26 The guard rails are 2 blocks high.
14:17 Rotate the gates by 90 degrees to avoid cramming issues in 1.18+. If you still have cramming issues after rotating the gates, try widening the portal elevator as in this screenshot:

The portal frame is widened, more scaffolding is added inside, and an extra gate is added to each side. The hopper clock is also now oriented vertically.
16:26 To prevent phantoms, place leaves over the double chest.
17:14 Once you lay down some of the soul sand, you can go to the killing chamber so that the mob cap becomes filled with guardians. The spawning area will then be devoid of guardians, allowing you to continue laying down more soul sand in relative peace.
19:22 Gnembon's guardian XP farm shares many conceptual similarities with this farm. His video is a great reference for players:

MULTIPLAYER USE
For multiplayer servers, the farm works as long as no other player is in the nether, or if at least 1 other player is within 128 blocks of the portal elevator in the nether.
You can partner with a friend to greatly accelerate the rate of drops. Build a killing chamber in the nether, underneath the portal elevator, at the same X and Z coordinates. While one player AFKs in the overworld, the other can use Looting 3 in the nether to get 180k dph.
Modded servers often change portal mechanics, spawn radius, mob caps, etc. which will adversely affect the farm.
UPGRADES can be made to make the farm faster, but you are still restricted to absorbing at 180,000 XP/hr. That said, the following may boost your farm's productivity, for example, if you are looking to use it for drops:
- Surround each 7x7 square of scaffolding with a portal on each of the 4 sides, and make several of these units over the monument.
- Put a wall around the soul sand up to the scaffolding edge so that guardians cannot escape the bubble columns.
- Completely remove any kelp in your quadrant of the monument bounding box. Remember that kelp will grow back if you don't break the bottom piece.
- Place magma blocks on your quadrant of the monument so that any guardians that spawn outside of the collection areas will get pulled down. This causes them to despawn once they are more than 128 blocks from the player.
BUILDING OVER THE NETHER ROOF isn't permitted on some servers. You can build the portal elevator under the nether roof instead, with your feet at Y=117 when standing inside the portal frame. However, you will need to sacrifice the drop shaft in the overworld. Build the portal at the killing chamber right behind the iron bars, with your feet at Y=164 when standing inside the portal frame.
SHOUTOUT to friends on my Discord community who provided feedback during the development of the farm and on the drafts of this video. Thank you!
