Minions are NPCs that produce items while placed on a player's private island. Each minion will generate and harvest resources within a 5x5 Area. The resource generated varies by minion type. Minions can be upgraded in order to increase their speed and carrying capacity, to a maximum craftable tier of XI (11) and XII (12) obtainable from the Bartender, Terry's Shop, and Bulvar. Players start out with a Tier I Cobblestone Minion I Cobblestone Minion on their Private Island.

Minions cannot be traded on the Auction House, but they can be traded through player to player Trading.

Minions with a description that includes "Time Between Actions: Xs" will generate collectable resources every other action. For example, if a Tier I Cobblestone Minion does an action every 14 seconds, the minion will generate 1 Cobblestone every 28 seconds and not 14 seconds.

Minions can be crafted into higher tiers to increases their collection speed and maximum storage size, with tier XI being the highest tier for most minions, over time however, some minions received 12th tier. Minion tiers can be distinguished by the colored patch on their heads, with light green patches at tiers II-IV (2-4), purple patches at tiers V-VII (5-7), orange patches at tiers VII-X (7-10), and cyan patches at tier XI (11). There is a quick crafting diamond for quick tier upgrades.

Initially, only five minions can be placed. Extra minion slots can be gained from crafting unique minions and minion tiers, along with Profile Upgrades. See increasing minion capacity for more information.

All players in a Co-op can interact with all Minions on their island.

Crafting new unique Minions rewards SkyBlock XP.

Minions have four types of slots:

  • Minion Skins (Green, x1) - These are purely cosmetic.
  • Fuel (Orange, x1) - Increases minion production speed. Most will only have limited usage and will destroy itself when used up. The exceptions are the Enchanted Lava Bucket, the Magma Bucket, the Plasma Bucket, the Everburning Flame, and the Solar Panel. All 5 power up the minion indefinitely, but the Solar Panel works only in daylight.
  • Automated Shipping (Blue, x1) - Minions will automatically sell generated items once its inventory and Minion Storage Chest (if used) are full. This can be utilized for low-effort minion setups which rely on high NPC sell-value or minion setups aimed at long times away from the game.
  • Minion Upgrades (Yellow, x2) - Unlike the other slots, both upgrade slots have a variety of different functions they can supply, although some upgrades are exclusive to certain minions.

Increasing Minion Capacity

The number of unique minions the player can place on the island increases as they create more unique minions. This includes creating new unique minion types or a higher level minion of the same type that has already been collected. The table below shows the number of unique minions that can be placed after creating a certain number of unique Minions.

Mob Spawning Mechanics

2019-12-15 20.47.57

A two-dimensional representation of where a mob can spawn around a minion (top block height is based on the height of mob).

The mechanics of mob spawning minions are similar to that of mob spawners in vanilla Minecraft:

  • The "ideal layout" shows the general spawning area for mobs around a minion.
  • Minions can spawn mobs only within a 5x5 area centered around them, unless they have a Minion Expander upgrade.
  • The vertical range in which they spawn is 6 blocks (3 below, 2 above, and 1 at eye level with the minion).
  • As long as there is a block for them to spawn on and spawning will not cause them to take suffocation damage, they will spawn in accordance with the minion's normal spawning times.
  • Mobs that are wider than 1 block (slimes, magma cubes, ghasts, etc.) are limited by the horizontal range, but they will still spawn partially inside nearby walls and may possibly escape.
  • If a mob is outside of a minion's range, it will not kill it automatically and collect the loot.

Improving Minion Setup

A more advanced breakdown for profiting off of minion tiers can be seen under this forum post.

This section is about improving minion setup and maximizing efficiency and coins per hour. This section may change slightly due to bazaar prices and updates in the game so it might not be entirely accurate at times.

Profit Table

This is a table of profits for all minions without any fuel or other bonuses. Prices listed are if sold to the Bazaar (or sold to shop if item cannot be sold on the bazaar).

Bazaar prices are updated every half hour and cached. To confirm the most up-to-date values are displayed, purge / refresh the page.

Note: This table assumes that the player is using a Super Compactor 3000, and thus uses enchanted item prices. This is due to the fact that the majority of players use these, and there can be a large gap between what the base item is worth and what the enchanted form is worth. Example: 160 Glowstone Dust is worth 1,408 coins while one Enchanted Glowstone Dust is worth only 1,323.9 coins, a notable decrease.

Note: Note that putting Super Compactor 3000 or Dwarven Super Compactor into these minions as an upgrade is not suggested, as their enchanted (block) form of the items' priced are decreased a lot. However, the negative impact is they will run out of space very often without the minion Compactors.

Note: Lower tiers (tier VII or below) of these minions are not suggested to use as they have many different kinds of items that can be produced and lack storage. Their enchanted (block) form of items' price are decreased a lot.

Note: These minions are not suggested to use for the purpose of making coins as they have many different kinds of items can be produced that lacking the storage or their enchanted (block) form of items' price are decreased a lot.

Access the Full Configurable Profit Table

What Minion Tier to use for coins

The minion tier recommended for each minion varies due to the price of upgrading certain minions. For ice, snow, and clay minions it is best to max them out, but other minions have better tiers. Remember that it is worth maxing every minion at least once for the extra slots. This data gives a rough idea for planning on using the most profitable minions, but profit changes frequently in the Bazaar. This table below uses the Lapis Minion as an example, showing how long it takes for it to make enough material to pay itself off.

Tier Time to start producing more than cost (hours) Time to start producing more than cost (days)
I 0.69 0.03
III 5.12 0.22
V 37.42 1.56
VII 165.39 6.89
IX 708.73 29.53
XI 2655.15 110.63
XII 4787.39 199.48
Total for tier XII (days) 348.33

Other minions follow this trend similar to the Lapis Minion. Days refer to days in real life, not in-game days. It is generally recommended to upgrade minions to tier V for the most profit, with the exception of Revenant and Tarantula where tier IV is generally better to go for. This is due to the market changes in which different minions will be the most profitable, effectively rendering past tier V minions worthless if the best minion changes.

Tier XII Minions

Players can upgrade their Tier XI mining minions to Tier XII by exchanging them along with resources and coins to Bulvar, located at the entrance to the Dwarven Mines.

The Revenant Minion I Revenant Minion can be upgraded to Tier XII at the Bartender.

Players can also upgrade their Tier XI Farming minions to Tier XII at Tony's Shop in Trapper's Den.

Tips

  • A minion with a Super Compactor 3000 or Dwarven Super Compactor will turn items into their enchanted form, when there are enough in its inventory, even if the player has not unlocked the enchanted recipe of the item yet.
  • The player's island is loaded when the player, guests, or co-op teammates enter the island. Approximately one minute after all players have left the island, the island is unloaded.
    • By loading the island, some minions can be set up the perform the same action endlessly depending on their surroundings. For example, a Cobblestone Minion next to a cobblestone generator will only break cobblestone and will not place any new cobblestone if all other blocks are not cobblestone or air.
    • Similarly, players can make mob minions spawn mobs so they die to fall damage and set up Hopper system to collect the resources. This will make the minion twice as efficient since they don't have to kill the spawned mob. But it won't grant Skill XP or collection.
  • For many variants of the  Foraging minions, such as the Oak Minion, if the player places a block/slab 6 blocks above where the trees are planted or decrease the light level to 7 or lower, it will always grow into a "simple" tree rather than a normal tree. This significantly reduces the space occupied by the planted trees and allows far easier access to the minion as leaves won't block the path.
  • If a Co-op member has been offline, or outside of their Private Island, when the Minions were collected, they will receive the Skill XP from them once they go to Private Island, whether it's theirs or someone else's.
    • This can be utilised so that players can level the same pet multiple times from collecting Minions once by having a player collect the Minions and then trade it to their co-op members one by one before they too go to the Private Island to claim the XP.

Trivia

  • Increasing a minion's level sometimes upgrades its held tool.
  • There was a glitch in early SkyBlock where putting a minion in a chest had a small chance of turning it into a Steve or Alex head.
  • Minions used to have colored names.
  • If a minion does the same action twice, it slightly decreases the efficiency of the minion.
  • If the player picks up a minion with fuel inside that doesn't last forever, the fuel will be destroyed. Similarly to how it would have been destroyed if it was picked from the minion.
  • There used to be a bug where minion heads could be placed directly on Hard Glass. This bug has been patched
  • Players can recombobulate a minion. This makes the minion's name Purple instead of Blue when in the inventory. This shows Minions are Rare.
  • In The Catacombs - Floor IV and above, the quiz puzzle has a question about the amount unique minions.
  • After using the "Pick Minion" function, any items that were left in its inventory will go into the player's inventory. However, doing so will not award the collection.
    • This method can also be used to obtain bugged-stacked items like a stack of 64 Ender Pearls.
