Spawn Rates

[Mushroom]

Hey guys,
I recently invested some money in spider spawners. It didn't take me long to realise I wasn't making much profit off the farm because of the crap spawn rates.
What spawners do you guys recommend for profit?

I think golems as it is more expensive, BUT, with only 5 iron golem spawners i was already making a sweet profit of 8k per 5mins, its not bad, but its constant, i hav' nt tried zombie pigman spawners yet, im in the process of doing, but on the other hand zpigs are cheaper aswell as you can salvage their swords for some nice ingots, but for now im gonna plus golems.

How many ingots does 1 golem drop upon death?

 

[muximus59]

idk im pretty sure 1 as the mobs stack as they drop so 1 ingot per x1 on the ig.

 

[muximus59]

so if it will spawn a x80 ig, x80 ingots on death.

Hmm... I would have expected it to be more

 

[muximus59]

haha ok

I would prefer pigman

As I did the math on earlier threads already, go with Pigman. Every mob spawnrate got cut by 2 and drops on golem / pigs litterly the same. It's just about IG's cost 2,5x the price for the same amount of money. Be smart make Pigs, get 2,5x more Spawners / Profit. Also double loot is still a thing. So chances for x2 Gold

but on the other hand zpigs are cheaper aswell as you can salvage their swords for some nice ingots, but for now im gonna plus golems.

Only Pigs dieing from u give u swords. Drowning / Falldmg is only gold.
