What is the best item your minions have brought you ?

What is the best item your minions have brought you ?

Postby gem » Mar 07, 2010 10:51 am

I was just wondering what type of Items your minions have brought you. I know the 1min minion mission brings a random selection of furniture, some common and some less common. So far I've only gotten 2 tables, but they both sell well. I think I got shoes from the 3 or 10min mission... well the one that brings footwear.

I've got lifestones from the "Lure unsuspecting victim." It does have a low %.

I've got 2 titles from the "Keep it in the family" Seems to be good titles The Historian and Team Edward.

So what good weapons or clothes or furniture have others gotten from minions ?

I've gotten lots of house items, no new weapons or anything only the sock weapons etc. I was curious about the titles as the old minions gave recipes, I figured the new ones would give made titles.

I've been getting mostly furniture off my minions, since that's the task that gives the visible rewards haha. Been trying reeeeeally hard for a random sock, earring and necklace now, logging in and starting those ~5% tasks twice a day, but I haven't seen a single one yet...

Has anyone managed to get those random equipment from minions? I'm worried that it might be that the minion rewards haven't been fully fixed yet, and that I'm wasting my time for nothing.

Well since the 5% went to 1%, not much.

I just got a sweet keyboard and gothy table with candles from the "If This Coffin's A Rockin'..." 4% chance of getting furniture, so it does take a while to get a winner.

In case some don't know yet. To my knowledge no one has ever received a weapon from minions (earring, handhold, bracelet) since the new update for minions.

Minions only return furniture, clothes titles and potions.

Correct me if you can prove this wrong. So avoid minion tasks that bring back weapons.

I like this topic! Im also curious to know the complete set of objects minions can give you, so thnx Gemma for opening this thread!
I only send my minions for furniture (1 min mission) and very rarely for plants. I like when minions give me stuff, whatever it is, though i think the Dire pieces of furniture i got where the one i was hoping for the most. I dont mind weapons as I helped myself of great gear in the Oogalunka quest.

Heres a list of what i got (hoping i remember everything):
Dire Table with Candles
Dire Coffee Table
Dire Hall Table
Lux-end Table
Asian Dinner Table
Asian Chairs
Spirit Chairs
Dotted Kitchen Chair
Blue computer chairs
Macabre Toilet
a purple-like toilet i dont remember the name of
Black Toilet
White toilet
Plain toilet
Luxe Bidet (hooray! bathroom isnt a bathroom without it.. :-P)
Gothic chair (the "cushioned" ones, not those that cost a hell)
Black Corner (couch)
Tan middle, left and right (couch)
Standard chairs (armchairs)
Standard Sofa: 2 middles and a right
Standard rug (the red one)
Sand Tables, standard and with pink and green plants
Sand tables II, standard and with plants
Sand tables III
Blue beds
Ocean Armoir
Ocean Lamp
Sand bookshelf
Small Luxe Sofa
Red cafe stools

Stump

Im not sure of the names, cos im in linux and cant access the game :-(
I would like to see other lists like this one, also to see if there is any chance to get the X thing from minions.

For the record I think there is another furniture thread that looks at how often minions actually bring you stuff. And Calan was doing a collection of data from different users for different missions, so he's got the results somewhere, sent on to Ohais....

Daniela, you got a lot of furniture!

I always ask my minions to bring me titles, I think there is a 3% and a 4% (strike a pose), both 7hrs that I send minions on. (yeah, I do 1min missions and 10min, but the furniture and plants have been pretty common boring stuff...) And to think I thought titles were silly when I first began. And now I'm super excited by titles. Only 3 more make levels till I get a skill pt and get scribe mastery! So here's to my favorite minion returns.

I'll list the titles I've got so far (Perhaps I forgot 1 or 2...) :
Secret Agent (my current one and favorite one!)
Seraphina's Saber (up for grabs)
Team Eric (please tell me this is a reference to True Blood's awesome vamp sheriff, and most likely in 4 days you'll see me with this title.)
Little Buddy
(Team Edward)
(Hell's Bells)
The Stoic (a scribe 3 can make this and a minion brought it to me... so disappointed....)
Girl Friday (a scribe 5 can make this... disappointed again)

(edit: just thought i would point out, I average a title about a week, maybe, so it's not a super fast minion result. checking minions twice a day and send only 4 minion on title task at a time. But I only need 1 new title a week, any extras i'll give away)

(edit edit: OK I've run "Strike a Pose" for 2 weeks, 8 times a day with 4% chance of title and all I got was the title Girl Friday, I'm so disappointed.
4% x 8 minions a day x 7 days = 224% - I should be able to get 2 a week, why was I only getting 1 in 2 weeks, even if I miss collect one day or so, I should be able to get a title a week, and getting a title I can make was so disappointing but I suppose if I wasn't scribe or couldn't make this one I would be less disappointed? not really. The stats are still not quite right yet...)

@calan - I haven't gotten a title in almost 2 weeks, running strike a pose 4% chance almost 8 times a day :( A bit discouraging, but I'm hopeful that any day now, I'll get a new minion title, especially since last time I got 2 titles in 2 days on this mission... so there must be a bit of a wait now. However, now that I mastered scribe, I can make lots of fun titles, so it's OK for a while. Minions bring stuff so rarely, it really is a huge reward when they finally bring you something. :D

So I hear from Randy that the longer furniture missions give better furniture. What cool furniture have people gotten, or clothes ?

From my own experience I do find the longer furniture mission gives better items.'Spruce up my Crypt' is the only mission I do now.
'Sharpen my Fangs' yielded toilets,dotted tables etc.,although i have gotten a couple gothy chairs.

Spruce up my crypt has yielded more uncommon items such as a garden swing,cafe checkout,luxe fridge.These are green title items,but uncommon in the sense that you can't purchase these from merchants.....yet anyways.

I prefer the less common items and I'm willing to pay lots of rubies;)Hit me up if you're selling.

yes, you gain maybe 2 missions every level or so. I can't quite figure it out, but I do get new missions as I level up. The entourage points seem to need some exponentially more points than the previous levels, and the new higher level missions provide better rewards and more entourage and other points.

i think the mission randy is talking, spruce up my crypt, is somewhere around lvl 42/43? I just know I got it recently and I'm just at 44. maybe some ones posted something on the wiki about missions and what level they are available...

you need to whip those minions into shape!
I specially did all the missions I could to get entourage points so I could get to the good missions faster... which really is just getting to 'Strike a Pose' at level 40 or so. I just want titles from minions. Some say the best way to increase minion level is to do the 1min missions, but then you really are only doing minnions for a long time, and batty is really really chatty. But it is true you get thousands of points relatively quickly.

/ I finally got a title from minions. It's "Girl Friday" :( I hate when minions bring titles I can make. really useless reward. whine whine whine...
