make xp less grindy

right now xp is mainly collected through mob farms and for players who don't have the time or technical knowledge that usually means staying at a mob spawner for half an hour to get level 30. this process is slow and boring and can make middle game of Minecraft feel like a constant slow grinding fest. im not saying this method should be nerfed and completely replaced because for those who like to build and design farms its fun to collect xp this way

 

but as an alternative I suggest we add a new item "bundle of experience" this item can be found along with regular xp bottles in any overworld structure and are more common in end city's. the xp bundles will take you from 0 xp to about 5 and will usually spawn with 3 to 8 xp bottles in the end the rates are doubled.

this encourages exploration over constant grinding while still giving a reason to make insane xp farms and if the bundle of xp is too weird the structures could just spawn with more xp bottles.

    I like this idea. Not everyone likes the grindy part of minecraft. I hate standing at an xp farm for ages, I have a really short attention span. I would much rather explore. I agree with the sentiment that there needs to be other ways to get xp to make it more fun for all play styles. Exploring still takes time, it is not an instant game beating mechanism. At the very least it would be nice to have some more engaging ways to grind for xp.
