If you are reading this, you are either interested, or you genuinely think that Fishing, Clay or Foraging minions are any good at leveling their respective skills. Short answer is No.

long answer is:

Fishing Minion
T11 Fishing minion, costing in material cost:
 * when buying Raw Fish and crafting materials from there.
 * when using Raw Fish and buying Enchanted Raw Fish.
 * if you cannot be asked to craft the materials required.

Anywho, it produces 7 items, giving different xp, as per the table below this; Which does not seem like a lot, and isn't, totaling at  per day, per t11 minion.

Let's put that number to perspective! If you are observant, you might notice the column saying years, which should be enough to convince you. But if you want to waste money and buy multiple t11 minions (only the first give which is W), then you can divide the number yourself by Minions used * (1+(Minion Modifier Bonus)/100) * (1+/100). For example if you are using 20, all with and  and  you would Days/(20*(1+(25+10)/100)*(1+20/100)). Which is not making it a lot better, since unlocking fishing on would still take  Days.

Clay Minion
Clay minion T11 generates 10,800 clay per day giving 0.1 fishing xp per, easy math. Let's put it in the table

Foraging Minions
I have also seen people suggesting using minions to level, and as someone who used minions, I know it's bad. All 6 minions have same speed (6400 wood per day), and their wood gives same XP (0.1 per). However for Foraging, you shouldn't even farm manually, because Foraging revamp has been leaked and supposedly, it should make the skill easy, similarly to what Bestiary, Slayer, Commissions, Lava Fishing, Garden or Experimentation Table did to their respective skills.

so yeah

DO NOT USE THESE MINIONS FOR LEVELING UP THEIR SKILLS
