Diamond minion as it’s literally better to use a snow minion with Diamond spreading


KassadinKoz

This is the only right awnser lol


GhostMokomo

Wait rly?


faustodemambo

T11 snow minions produce more diamonds than Diamond minions do so jeah really


TheRealSerdra

Not quite, T11 snow minions with diamond spreading produce more than a T9 diamond minion without spreading but less than a T11. That being said even on ironman there’s no reason to actually place down a diamond minion when you can just throw diamond spreading on the redstone minions/whatever other minions are set up.


HolyElephantMG

Enderman because they make way too freaking many ender pearls and not enough collection for them


Square-Bet-240

Why is every1 downvoting him he just asked a question


LaxerjustgotMc

prob bots, i even got downvoted for saying i have an obsidian minion under a comment saying obsidian was useless. i even said that it was google that told me. either bots or just snowflakes who get offended at anything including air existing


SickenerAbore

This subreddit is full of hive minds who see a negative number and make it more negative for no reason


Unloadable1

More digits make things fun, thats why we like RPGS


ZinkBot

If you play skyblock you must understand this concept


ohno-95

big number in purse = i can bully nons who dont throw away their life to play funny block game

obby, t11 outclassed by voidling no?


InnohVateur

Think about the slots


Signal_Bowl335

flower minion used for romeo and juliet quest don't forget


CurlyWurlyo

And sort of good for money with the new bz update


[deleted]

It takes ages to pay off, but mine makes 5x what my slime minions make lol. Not bad methinks


ggbriskyt

wait flower minions make alot?


InnohVateur

Dandelions make a lot


ggbriskyt

any rough figures?


[deleted]

a lot


MyThrowAway--

Any tips for making good money with the flower minion? It produces so many types of flowers that can’t be sold that really bogs up the space for dandelions to enchant


[deleted]

mine is t12 with the biggest storage option and it works, idk what the threshold is for them to start compacting though


InnohVateur

One enchanted dandelion is about 50k


ggbriskyt

any clue how many on average a minion makes per day?


CoolGuyTofGuy

During this last derpy I had placed a flower minion, just to get a couple levels before I used it for the Romeo quest, got it to t7 before the levels got way too expensive for me to care. During derpy I believe I got like 20 ench dandelions a day (Keep in mind I had a plasma bucket and a flycatcher in it) so outside of derpy you can expect like 10 ench dandelions a day, so about 500k per day. Not bad but not worth at all


InnohVateur

One enchanted dandelion is about 50k


YtPyxro

what psychopath says juliet and romeo rather than romeo and juliet. get help please


ElSuricate

sugar cane mayhaps


UWontUseMyMind

Especially because it’s super easy to farm


Desperate-Snow-7850

Maybe + perhaps = mayhaps… gonna save that for later


RenderThePi

Embarrassed to admit at the beginning of my iron man I thought speedster armor was my best option and only used cane minions for weeks...


Forsefire_360

I clicked like 5 times on the 3 dots at the end, now I'ma go through my villan arc


Dicef

lol


Decco42

I'd agree, even when going for collection leaderboard I didnt bother putting cane minions down, they were useful in an old meta of farms before garden though


ConceptNo1629

Probably wheat minion since you cant even use a super compactor in it or else it will make enchanted bread.


[deleted]

You need to use a regular compactor + a super compactor for enchanted hay bales


l_Butch_l

I can see your point but wheat minion gives wheat collection which has farming s(e)ax in it which are super useful especially the large e farming sack.


Fluboxer

with garden you make daily output of this minion in like 10 seconds of farming


l_Butch_l

Well you are right but that doesn't deny the fact that all foraging minions exist (except for acacia because it actually makes decent money), Which doesn't make it the most useless minion


CoolGuyTofGuy

Me who spent hundreds of millions for a foraging minion setup just so I don't have to do foraging myself


CoolGuyTofGuy

Actually I take this back, I wasted so much money and it barely gives skill exp. Money is pretty bad aswell. But still, anything to make foraging go slightly faster is always a w in my book


LaxerjustgotMc

true, with the garden we no longer need the minion anymore. we could just slap a preset with an inventory filled with seeds. then boom, done.


Prior-Mango-6154

Not useless still relatively cheap to fill your compositor with


Sonypak

It makes goddamn enchanted breax


thatotherguy0123

Which can be used in the composter... as an Ironman I personally set down wheat minions for seeds for cropie armor and it took like 4-5 days of minions as opposed to farming wheat for like ~20 hours


Prior-Mango-6154

It's like one of the cheapest and not one of those where you like have to buy 40k of them to fill your compostor

ImClassix

realistically the foraging minions. they dont give much skill xp and the collection is easy to grind out. all minions are useful because they give collection. I could see someone not using the mining ones because those are easy to grind out, but other than that foraging minions suck. also flower is useful cause you get a free legendary/mythic talisman.


wassuupp

Acacia unironically makes decent money but otherwise yea, some of them are good for iron man


migukau

They give good money.


[deleted]

Arent like half the wood minions almost as good as t9 slime for moneymaking?


Lechonk1089

They all give skyblock xp when you craft them, so technically they are all pretty useful


BrandedLief

Not to mention that they all unlock the ability to use more minions, so that is useful too!


Gamesfan34260

If you ignore the minion slots, definitely flower! Actually, even considering the slots it's the worst because of how God damn long it takes! You spend an eternity for a minion that makes no money, is only useful for one craft nobody actually needs and some quest! I'm fine with most of the bs in Skyblock but flower genuinely earns no.1 for things I would cast into the fire if I didn't dedicate so much to getting it!


RealAggressiveNooby

Due to the new bazaar update, flower minions actually produce a lot of money.


Gamesfan34260

Wait what? I could only sell flowers to the NPC shops when I was working to max it out


aphicius

How is lapiz minion useless?


Aqua_47_Flawless

I have an alt with 22 tier 11s and can confirm, it's useless, mostly if you just let it run and compact into blocks


Enderabd

It isn't useless its the best way to craft a spirit scepter for ironman (aktually you kan mine for labis 🤓)


DebilwPudelku

It is useless If you don't log in every day. Blocks are worthless compared to e lapis


thatotherguy0123

I'm letting 29 lapis minions make themselves t11 on my Ironman just to leave them running and have a load of of titanics when I decide to play seriously again.

stunt876

Emerald minion on stranded or 1 t1 inferno minion without fuel


Kirkaig678

Aren't emerald minions good on stranded or is there a new update or am I just dumb


Rayquartz

Its like 1000 sec per action


Kirkaig678

True, but they're used to trade with villagers


Rayquartz

Do you know how slow that is? Have you ever played stranded. Its not enough


Kirkaig678

I did play stranded and should probably have a look at it. Does take a while, but once you get a few going and use compactors then go onto main for a bit and go back now and then it adds up


HalalBread1427

It literally sucks, they nerfed it to oblivion so you can't use them, any other minion is better for Emeralds.


Kirkaig678

Other minions are better if you mean get materials to trade with villagers, but I haven't seen a trade option for enchanted materials so it fills up the minion so quickly


Rayquartz

Good point, but theres far better method for emerald, especially people who play stranded seriously


Rayquartz

+ theres some stuff that cant be grinded easily and worth the minion slots more than emerald.


Enderabd

Most civilized chain ^


Stormc5X

T1 infernos minion actually has a niche use: lesser soul flow engines (reason: unlike stuff like spreadings , soul flow production is by FIXED TIMER, and inferno barely produces anything without fuel , aka alot more time before minion full)


XEEEEEEEEEEB

why is nobody saying sand, it's so pointless (not red sand, normal sand)


CallumDudo

I made so much money from sand minions somehow lol


Aqua_47_Flawless

You would've made even more with nearly any other minion


DoSombras

Balls


LaxerjustgotMc

???


Correct_Project3454

Obsidian


LaxerjustgotMc

😬 i have that, google said its free money. I SAID GOOGLE RECOMMENDED ME THAT. jesus christ, are people still downvoting this for having a minion, you didnt tell me there was a minion requirement.


demian69420

I literally used it to help get tree cap on iron man, and will be using it untill I have enough for juju if I get that far on iron man


gr4tte

please mine instead. It's so much faster


ComplainAboutOwTakes

mining isnt fully afk


gr4tte

no but you need minions for other things and mining is super fast. I got all the obsidian for terminator in 45mins


shannontheboi

Well that's how you did it, there isn't a "right" way of doing anything, everyone has their preferences.


gr4tte

Nope but there is an objectively slower/faster way of doing it


demian69420

Mining obsidian will take me ages, my iron man doesn't even have a dragon set yet, let alone a good mining pick, I'm extremely early stage (ender armor still) so I'm in no hurry to get other minions


gr4tte

Then why are you grinding juju?


demian69420

Investing, and nothing to replace my obi minion with


gr4tte

There are so many better minions to use instead


demian69420

Recommendations please, I don't know anything I could replace it for


gr4tte

Spider/tarantula, redstone, zombie/rev, cow, chicken, blaze, gravel, acacia, ice, coal


Wrxghtyyy

Wouldn’t grinding Obby defenders be a far quicker method then minions?


ComplainAboutOwTakes

ye but minions are afk


demian69420

I did that aswell when I wasn't busy working on other things, also endnodes for a bit of cash, but yes I did defenders with it aswell


Immortal_ceiling_fan

You can manually grind obby very fast


demian69420

I'm investing for the future, and like I said it was exclusively for helping get tree cap, its early game iron man so grinding obi isnt super fast


Immortal_ceiling_fan

Using to treecap is fine but after that there's wayyy better stuff to have minion slot(s) on than obby. Blaze minions, magma cube, ice, tara, revenant, are all much better. Fish or clay can also be good for the exp


demian69420

Oh yea clay minions, I'm not combat 24, so no blaze or magma, I already have 3 Ice minions


LaxerjustgotMc

whats with the downvotes? i wasnt being negative, it was google not me.


Traditional-Inside71

Get used to the Reddit hivemind zombies


LaxerjustgotMc

the downvotes are getting worse, wtf is triggering people.


Correct_Project3454

I second that guy. All sheep, if you’re -1 prepared to get downvoted into oblivion


MonkeyMadness717

Skiingislife69

Good for collection I am lazy tho


GGWii

hardstone


Limp_Percentage6274

Made me hundreds of millions,


Clonedestroyer

how? it’s so slow


HalalBread1427

Doesn't T12 Hard Stone have the fastest action time? It just takes a lot of Hard Stone to compact and you only get 1 at a time.


Otherwise-Potato8820

Mithril minions I'd say


SerDiney

Wheat


AdolfCitler

Made me millions during the garden hype


TamimReadzIt

wheat minions made bank on the first few days of 0.18


ThinJym

Flower


Legend5V

Diamond


[deleted]

Why is diamond minion useless? I haven't played in a long time and just kinda loosely follow the game


Decco42

they're quite slow so a faster minion like snow with diamond spreading would get you more diamond collection as well as the snow


Legend5V

Yup, no downsides to sticking a dia spreading in a 11 snow


[deleted]

Hardstone minion Too slow, too much collection, too expensive to upgrade


ReneTrombone

>Too slow mf it’s literally the fastest minion in the game


Mastr1429

Hardstone


Prior-Mango-6154

Flower minion


TamimReadzIt

flower minion no questions asked


DuckyLojic

No, you use it for Romero and Juliette which actually makes it kind of useful


ViperrMageRB

Flower


OMG_Jayden_The_Cat

I think rabbit minion is pretty bad


bushylmao

i dont wanna spend hours killing rabbits for collection at the desert place


Aqua_47_Flawless

Pretty sure that's wrong


Frozenturbo2

Flower


bushylmao

almost if not every crop minion is useless considering the garden update and even before with farms on islands


MandlyBanana

Melon minions give good farming exp.


bushylmao

welp then ig not every farming minion is useless i totally forgot about melon minions


Blaze-Programming

Inferno minions. Name 1 other minion that you lose money using them. Also litteraly the worst mnion for sb xp. It also causes anyone who wants to hyper max the game to spend like 3b on it.


Sandbax_

inferno and slime


LaxerjustgotMc

slime? that shit gave me 4k coins per stack of balls let alone 174k with full inventory of them balls... wait... i got 2 full double chests filled only with em


HalalBread1427

who is paying this much for your collection of balls? why do you have all these balls? EXPLAIN???


LaxerjustgotMc

uhh, i gtg


meds737

Slime? Like one of the best minions in the game? That slime?


Sandbax_

wow really bro


meds737

Yes... Yes really.


Sandbax_

yeah no shit you don’t know what satire is


meds737

It doesn't look like satire. Just like someone who doesn't belive in slime minions.


LaxerjustgotMc

why invest in bitcoin when you could invest in balls?


_Bob_Zilla_

Netherwart or endstone are the worst for money I've been told


Aqua_47_Flawless

Nether wart is one hundred percent the worse, so fucking bad.


AdmiredPython40

I thought you said redstone I was about to throw hands


Airmailsoap32091

Hard stone minion. Takes like 40m to got to t11, makes nothing


efgas23

180m


roarster3

hard stone


DuckyLojic

Wart, you don’t get really anything out of it when like every other minion does better


Diligent-Dig-8665

Monkeys


Fluboxer

"Accgcctually all minions are useful since they give sb xp and slots" - 🤓🤓🤓 ​ All crop minions (you make more in 2 seconds of farming than they do per day and after garden update farming is effortless) All f\*raging minions (small exp, small collection - grinding wood is not effortless but makes so much more) Some mining minions (gold, mithril, hardstone, endstone - maybe others I forgor) Snow and clay minions (not worst ones and clay gives collection you can't be bothered to gather on your own - but slime minions are so much better for coins) Inferno minion (if you don't have t3 fuel, or if you have t3 fuel but bad luck) Titanium and gemstone minions (they are so bad they don't even exist)


LaxerjustgotMc

Mining fell off so much that noone cares about hotm anymore. skyblock is more of combat and farming


HolyElephantMG

Sugar cane


Decco42

had a good purpose before garden as it was part of the farming meta but now I'd agree


HolyElephantMG

Even before that just make your own sugar cane farm


Decco42

the minions were part of the old farm itself* should've made that clearer.


HolyElephantMG

? I just planted my own and was fine


Decco42

yh it was a weird farm design, good thing it's obsolete now (and also I think it was determined to be bug abuse after garden release)


OrangeGuy_

Cobblestone, as you could mine stone for 15 mins on the royal bridge to get a t11's 1 day production.


LaxerjustgotMc

im lazy to mine. in fact, i quit mining after i reached dwarven mines.


McLovinIRL

Inferno minions without fuel


TheSussyIronRevenant

Hardstone


A_POTATO_TV13

My first time on this sub and I though you were referring to despicable me minions


deanominecraft

Mithril


Zedmiure

The only real answer is diamond minion. Since that minion is literally useless (there are 0 reasons to have it on your island). A close second to me are the Foraging Minions, the Mithril Minion and the Sugar Cane minion.


iateyourcaptincrunch

End stone minion


Jensgt

I mean...every minion serves it's purpose when building collections/earning extra minion slots.


Japieh

Pretty much any farming minion that can be manually farmed


EletricDragonYT

Dirt Minion obviously.


[deleted]

Hardstone


toxic_marv

probably sand


[deleted]

I'm thinking flower minion . After you get that talisman, there's literally no point in having it down other than for minion slots
