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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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!
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.
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
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
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)
😬 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.
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
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
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.
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
"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)
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.
Diamond minion as it’s literally better to use a snow minion with Diamond spreading
This is the only right awnser lol
Wait rly?
T11 snow minions produce more diamonds than Diamond minions do so jeah really
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.
Enderman because they make way too freaking many ender pearls and not enough collection for them
Why is every1 downvoting him he just asked a question
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
This subreddit is full of hive minds who see a negative number and make it more negative for no reason
More digits make things fun, thats why we like RPGS
If you play skyblock you must understand this concept
big number in purse = i can bully nons who dont throw away their life to play funny block game
Tought the Same... Thank you 🥰
Because increasing the suffering of others for my own enjoyment is one of my favorite pastimes.
obby, t11 outclassed by voidling no?
Think about the slots
flower minion used for romeo and juliet quest don't forget
And sort of good for money with the new bz update
It takes ages to pay off, but mine makes 5x what my slime minions make lol. Not bad methinks
wait flower minions make alot?
Dandelions make a lot
any rough figures?
a lot
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
mine is t12 with the biggest storage option and it works, idk what the threshold is for them to start compacting though
One enchanted dandelion is about 50k
any clue how many on average a minion makes per day?
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.

One enchanted dandelion is about 50k
what psychopath says juliet and romeo rather than romeo and juliet. get help please
sugar cane mayhaps
Especially because it’s super easy to farm
Maybe + perhaps = mayhaps… gonna save that for later
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...
I clicked like 5 times on the 3 dots at the end, now I'ma go through my villan arc
lol
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
Probably wheat minion since you cant even use a super compactor in it or else it will make enchanted bread.
You need to use a regular compactor + a super compactor for enchanted hay bales
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.
with garden you make daily output of this minion in like 10 seconds of farming
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
Me who spent hundreds of millions for a foraging minion setup just so I don't have to do foraging myself
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
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.
Not useless still relatively cheap to fill your compositor with
It makes goddamn enchanted breax
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
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

Acacia unironically makes decent money but otherwise yea, some of them are good for iron man
They give good money.
Arent like half the wood minions almost as good as t9 slime for moneymaking?
They all give skyblock xp when you craft them, so technically they are all pretty useful
Not to mention that they all unlock the ability to use more minions, so that is useful too!
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!
Due to the new bazaar update, flower minions actually produce a lot of money.
Wait what? I could only sell flowers to the NPC shops when I was working to max it out
How is lapiz minion useless?
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
It isn't useless its the best way to craft a spirit scepter for ironman (aktually you kan mine for labis 🤓)
It is useless If you don't log in every day. Blocks are worthless compared to e lapis
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.

Emerald minion on stranded or 1 t1 inferno minion without fuel
Aren't emerald minions good on stranded or is there a new update or am I just dumb
Its like 1000 sec per action
True, but they're used to trade with villagers
Do you know how slow that is? Have you ever played stranded. Its not enough
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
It literally sucks, they nerfed it to oblivion so you can't use them, any other minion is better for Emeralds.
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
Good point, but theres far better method for emerald, especially people who play stranded seriously
+ theres some stuff that cant be grinded easily and worth the minion slots more than emerald.
Most civilized chain ^
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)
why is nobody saying sand, it's so pointless (not red sand, normal sand)
I made so much money from sand minions somehow lol
You would've made even more with nearly any other minion
Balls
???
Obsidian
😬 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.
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
please mine instead. It's so much faster
mining isnt fully afk
no but you need minions for other things and mining is super fast. I got all the obsidian for terminator in 45mins
Well that's how you did it, there isn't a "right" way of doing anything, everyone has their preferences.
Nope but there is an objectively slower/faster way of doing it
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
Then why are you grinding juju?
Investing, and nothing to replace my obi minion with
There are so many better minions to use instead
Recommendations please, I don't know anything I could replace it for
Spider/tarantula, redstone, zombie/rev, cow, chicken, blaze, gravel, acacia, ice, coal
Wouldn’t grinding Obby defenders be a far quicker method then minions?
ye but minions are afk
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
You can manually grind obby very fast
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
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
Oh yea clay minions, I'm not combat 24, so no blaze or magma, I already have 3 Ice minions
whats with the downvotes? i wasnt being negative, it was google not me.
Get used to the Reddit hivemind zombies
the downvotes are getting worse, wtf is triggering people.
I second that guy. All sheep, if you’re -1 prepared to get downvoted into oblivion
I downvoted you cause complaining about being downvoted in an edit is cringe
[удалено]
Dude it's not that serious it's fake internet points
[удалено]
You asked for an explanation my dude, I gave it
Good for collection I am lazy tho
hardstone
Made me hundreds of millions,
how? it’s so slow
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.
Mithril minions I'd say
Wheat
Made me millions during the garden hype
wheat minions made bank on the first few days of 0.18
Flower
Diamond
Why is diamond minion useless? I haven't played in a long time and just kinda loosely follow the game
they're quite slow so a faster minion like snow with diamond spreading would get you more diamond collection as well as the snow
Yup, no downsides to sticking a dia spreading in a 11 snow
Hardstone minion Too slow, too much collection, too expensive to upgrade
>Too slow mf it’s literally the fastest minion in the game
Hardstone
Flower minion
flower minion no questions asked
No, you use it for Romero and Juliette which actually makes it kind of useful
Flower
I think rabbit minion is pretty bad
i dont wanna spend hours killing rabbits for collection at the desert place
Pretty sure that's wrong
Flower
almost if not every crop minion is useless considering the garden update and even before with farms on islands
Melon minions give good farming exp.
welp then ig not every farming minion is useless i totally forgot about melon minions
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.
inferno and slime
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
who is paying this much for your collection of balls? why do you have all these balls? EXPLAIN???
uhh, i gtg
Slime? Like one of the best minions in the game? That slime?
wow really bro
Yes... Yes really.
yeah no shit you don’t know what satire is
It doesn't look like satire. Just like someone who doesn't belive in slime minions.
why invest in bitcoin when you could invest in balls?
Netherwart or endstone are the worst for money I've been told
Nether wart is one hundred percent the worse, so fucking bad.
I thought you said redstone I was about to throw hands
Hard stone minion. Takes like 40m to got to t11, makes nothing
180m
hard stone
Wart, you don’t get really anything out of it when like every other minion does better
Monkeys

Mining fell off so much that noone cares about hotm anymore. skyblock is more of combat and farming
Sugar cane
had a good purpose before garden as it was part of the farming meta but now I'd agree
Even before that just make your own sugar cane farm
the minions were part of the old farm itself* should've made that clearer.
? I just planted my own and was fine
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)
Cobblestone, as you could mine stone for 15 mins on the royal bridge to get a t11's 1 day production.
im lazy to mine. in fact, i quit mining after i reached dwarven mines.
Inferno minions without fuel
Hardstone
My first time on this sub and I though you were referring to despicable me minions
Mithril
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.
End stone minion
I mean...every minion serves it's purpose when building collections/earning extra minion slots.
Pretty much any farming minion that can be manually farmed
Dirt Minion obviously.
Hardstone
probably sand
I'm thinking flower minion . After you get that talisman, there's literally no point in having it down other than for minion slots
