I wanna build a creeper farm and this [tutorial](https://youtu.be/DKWMOcxU0CQ) says that I need to find a deep ocean, theres an ocean near my base so i was thinking of building it there, does it affect the rates if i dont build it on a deep ocean?

I don’t know this exact design, but the type of ocean shouldn’t matter overall.
Likely the reason for building over a deep ocean is that it is well, deep. Mobs won’t spawn more than 128 blocks from the player. Farms are usually built over oceans because then you don’t have to spawn proof the whole surface or dig a perimeter. A deep ocean tends to be a lot deeper overall than a regular ocean, so you can make a farm that doesn’t need to be as high in the air.
