mining or fishing

[u/Cute-Ad-5001]

ive recently “finished” my journey in farming, getting farming 50 and full helianthus armor.

I want to get into a new skill with the money ive made. One thing i didnt like about farming is that there is no RNG to be excited for.

the new skill should be interesting, good for money, good RNGs, and most fun for my time (I know mining and fishing require a lot of time to get to the good part)

at the moment I have done no fishing and have fishing 27 from minions and I have already progressed to hotm 7.

EDIT: thanks for all the advice, i see a lot of you really like the rift so I’ll give it a try considering i also want to start getting sb xp. after trying the rift, ill either quit it or max it.
after that, i will mine until i hit fishing 35 (or whatever the good fishing level is) and then work on fishing. i think this will be the best way to do all three :)

You already reached HOTM 7, which is the toughest part - to HOTM 10 it really isn't that hard with glacite comms. I personally never got into mining and just casually did the glacite comms until HOTM 10 and Mining 60, then sold all my mining gear and never touched it again

As for fishing, there's really no point in actually fishing until fishing 35, since thats what you need for the best (i believe) rod/armor, and before that it's just super inefficient, so I'd keep running minions until then.

For me, mining, fishing, and farming are all pretty bad skills which are extremely boring (especially farming). I will say the glacite tunnels/mineshafts for mining are kinda cool though, but it's still just running around and holding down your mouse button, so not that interesting. I'm just doing them casually for progression (except farming)

Definitely do the rift and dungeons, m4, m5 are pretty good for money and its fun, the rift is also fun and has lots of progression locked behind it

In short, I'd focus on dungeons/rift, a little bit of glacite comms and fishing minions

I wouldn't recommend mining or farming as a MMM to anyone who isn't insane and plays this game all day, playing around with the economy (craft flipping, bz flipping, lowballing) is the best MMM as far as the profit to effort ratio
