»[Factions] Farming Tutorial (Time it takes to get 1 Mil)

Hey guys,

So the faction server just reseted with a new economy, and i was really curious to find out what is the best money making methode at the moment, in this tutorial i will show you how to get 1 mil with the different farming methodes ( i will look at the time/afford it takes)

NOTE

i used only 1 Claim/Chunck ( 16x 16) and only 1 layer (you can obviously expand it)

cactus!

So i started of with making a cactus farm which is 7x7 and has 49 cactus:



A cactus grows every 2-4 mintus, so ill take the middle which is every 3 minutes, that means that you get 49 cactus every 3 minutes, Now lets do some of my favourite subject in school MATH: 60/3 = 20, so every hour you get 20 x 49 cactus = 980 cactus per hour,

64 cactus costs 80 $ 80 /64= 1,25 $ per cactus, 1,25 x 980 = 1.225 = 1,2 k,

This obviously doesn't seem like a lot for a hour, but if you build another layer, you're already close to 2,5 k per hour,

So to get 1 million ingame $ you'll need 800.000 Cactus (Wow!)

800.000 / 980 = 816,32... Hour of afking!

REMEMBER

If you make another layer you can already half the time!

Now lets say you got 4 of these layers, which will make you (980 x 4) 3920 cactus per hour, you'll need
800.000/ 3920 = 204,081... hours

8 layes will already be 100 hours,

Conclusion!

cactus farming is easy, you build a layer once, and you'll never have to do anything about it again, making 1 layer like this will only take you like 5-10 minutes, think about if you have 32 layers (which will take you like 5 min ) = 2 hours to build and you'll make around a mil every 25 hours! of Fully afking.. doesn't seem that Hard!


sugarcane!

I started making a Sugar cane farm in 1 chunck, it contains 15 x 7 = 105 Sugar cane per layer!


as you can see a very simple farm.

I coudn't find the time it takes to grow 1 extra Sugar cane, so instead i used a timer and waited till 15 Sugar cane (1 row) was fully grown, it may be different with ur Sugar cane but ill use these times for the tutorial.

After 10 minutes all but 3 are fully grown, but for the sake of me being lazy, we'll go with 10 mintus, Every 10 minutes you get (105 x 3) = 315 Sugar cane, it also takes like 1-2 minutes to farm so we'll go with 12 minutes per run

60/12 = 5 run per hour which means 315 x 5 = 1575 Sugar cane per hour.

64 Sugar cane = 160 $ 160/64 = 2,5 per Sugar cane

1.000.000/2,5 = 400.000 Sugar cane! 400.000/1575= 253,96... hours

And ofcourse, if you make more layers the time will be much shorter=

4 layers = 63 hours

8 layers = 31,5 hours!

To make 1 'layer' you'll need i guess 5 minutes max, its really not that hard, you only need to get a flat area and some space to put the water in.


Melon!
yes melon333 its ur turn,

So again i made a simple farm



If fully grown there are 6 rows of 15 melon, so there are 90 melons, Every melon drop 3-7 melon slices, so we'll take 5 melon slices per melon ( For max money making use a silk touch!)

After 11 minutes, all the 15 melons are grown, if you instantly farm them you'll get 90 x 5 = 450 melon slices per 11 min, per hour you can do 5,454545... full runs 450 x 5,45 = 2452,5 melon slices, 2452 / 9 = 272 melons per hour, 160 / 64 = 2,5 $ per melon 272 x 2,5 = 680 per hour ( wow this is quite bad TBH),

For 1 million, you'll need 400.000 Full Melons 400.000/272 = 1470 Hours!, jeez

and ofcourse if you make mulitple layers, it all goes faster

4 layers = 367 hours

8 layers = 183,8 hours

16 layers = 91 layers

You can ofcourse make it semi-automatic (maybe full auto but i don't know the design),


CONCLUSION

Some farming methodes are easier, some are fully afk-able some are not, in my opinion is cactus the very best, you can fully afk and with 32 layers you'll make a mil in 25 hours, which is pretty sweet since its full afkable, also i think melon/pumpking needs to be a bit buffed, cause i don't think its fully worth it !



TL; DR (mostly for aXed)
Cactus :

1 layer = 816 hr

2 layers: 408 hr

4 layers : 204 hr

8 layers : 102 hr

16 layers : 51 hr

32 layers : 25,5 hr

64 layer : 12,8 hr
(FULLY AFKABLE)

Sugar cane:

1 layer : 253 hr

2 layers: 126,5 hr

4 layers: 63,25 hr

8 layers: 31,625 hr

16 layers: 15 hrs
(CONTINIOUS PLAYING CAN'T AFK)

Melon:

1 layer : 1470 hr

2 layers: 735 hr

4 layers : 367,5 hr

8 layers : 183,75

16 layers : 91,875 hr

32 layers : 45,9375 hr

64 layers : 22,96 hr
(REQUIRES TON OF WORK (probably a silk touch)AND CAN'T AFK)


Pfew, i took me around 2 hours to figure out everything and make this thread

I Hope this was usefull, Leave some suggestions

Goodluck in the new reset

haha kris that is really good . I may need a better way if anyone have comment down.

 

Personally, after playing for about 7-8 hours in total..i find the suagrcane farm the best. The cactus farm is a bit irritating and frustrating to make if you dont have fly. On top of that Members and some ranks cant even afk..so yeah..

 

cactus is a bit gimmicky for me and I find the cane farm the easiest to make and the most profitable.

 

no nether wart farm?

 

Do some nether wart tests too kris <3

 

Im the only one who knows how to build the secret 1 million a hour potato farm, msg me if you are interested.

 

@Johannesvanurk ill msg you about that

 

nice tutorial dude

 

Very nice, detailed, and well written tutorial !!

 

Nice toturial! My faction already made the sugercane farm

 

Nice tutorial, I wished there was a way to access ratings on the tutorial thread section so I could give you a like

 

Nice Tutorial

 

*UPDATE*

So here we go, Again i used 1 Claim = 16 blocks

A nether wart takes at average 3 minutes and 30 seconds to grow, You also need to hit the netherwart and collect it, so ill take 5 minutes per run, which means you can do 12 runs, The amount of nether wart that drop is 2-4 so we'll take the middle =3

16x3= 48 nether wart per run, 12 x 48 = 576 nether wart per hour,

You can sell 64 Nether wart for 50$

64/50 = 1,28$ per nether wart

576 x 1,28 = 737,28 per hour ( LOL)

so to make 1 million (Which is still the goal ofc )

1.000.000/737,28 = around 1356 hours

soo here we got the conclusion :

1 layer = 1356 Hours

2 layers = 678 Hours

4 layers = 339 Hours

8 Layers = 169,5 Hours

16 Layers = 84,75 Hours

32 layers = 42,375 Hours

64 Layers = 23 Hours





I will keep this post as updated as i can, If you know what i should look into next time

*kuch*Like*kuch*

 

we have a 6 layer cactus farm with 54 cactus on each layer.... this tells me we need to make it stronger

 

For some reason I can't like it.

Nice tutorial Kris, I will use it once I start play factions

 

I don't know what you had, but you magically changed 16 layers into 91 layers, so Melons must be most profitable for you :O
Gimme what you got xD

 

Very well made!

So sadly I can't like "Tutorial" posts

 

Except you forgot cactus will fall on another cactus and delete the item,and with the adding of more layers theres more of a chance of more cactus getting destroyed.
Dawn has a 22 layer farm and makes around 3-6k per hour
