Getting every single skill to Level 50 (Level 60 in Farming, Enchanting, Combat and Mining) is one of the most notable SkyBlock achievements and is often seen as a mark of dedication. It also provides several useful stats for other activities such as Slayer and Dungeons.
Exponentially more Skill XP is required to reach the next level as compared to the previous level, and as such it is recommended to grind Skills at maximum efficiency to save time.
In general, a Booster Cookie and God Potion are recommended for their passive buffs to Skill XP gain. Their buffs should be active at all times when grinding Skills.
Minions of the highest tier should be placed down with Catalysts or Hyper Catalysts for maximum XP gain. Patient players should wait until Derpy is elected to claim their Minions for his XP boost.

Farming[]
See also: Farming
- Sugar Cane provides a relatively high XP/hr rate and a relatively comparable Coins/hr rate, and is recommended for new players getting into Farming.
- Pumpkins give the highest XP/hr rate out of any crop. However, the process of building a Pumpkin farm is lengthy in comparison to that of the Sugar Cane farm.
- Rancher's Boots and a Mathematical Hoe of the crop selected should be used when grinding. In addition, the Hoe should have the Blessed reforge for higher XP per hour. A Rabbit Pet of EPIC or higher should be used as well due to its Farming XP Boost ability.
- Melon Minions provide the highest XP/hr rate of any Minion
Mining[]
See also: Mining
- Mining Mithril in the Dwarven Mines with the Silverfish Pet of EPIC grants extremely high XP/hr rates.
- One should have as high ⸕Mining Speed as possible to mine as quickly as possible, maximising XP/hr. One should also focus primarily on the gray wool and clay blocks as they break the fastest.
- This can be done with Divan's Armour (requires Heart of the Mountain 7), Yog Armor, Sorrow Armor, Glacite Armor or Goblin Armor.
- A Drill or Pickaxe with the Refined reforge is also recommended for high XP gain. Rich players may consider purchasing a Blue Cheese Goblin Omelette for the highest possible XP rates and the ability to instantly break Mithril.
- The Snow Minion with a Diamond Spreading will generate the most XP/hr out of any Minion.
Combat[]
See also: Combat
- A Wolf Pet should be used at all times when grinding Combat due to its Combat XP boost. It should also be used when collecting from Minions.
- Revenant Horror Tier
V
give high Combat XP when done quickly. To achieve this, a Warden Helmet and Necron Armor with an Axe of the Shredded is recommended for the most kills per hour. - Players who are unable to afford the costly gear to farm Revenant Horrors can consider running The Catacombs - Floor VI and killing the Golems there.
- Alternatively, using a Soul Whip to kill Ghosts in the Dwarven Mines will yield similarly high XP rates.
- At lower levels, leveling up the Bestiary can grant large amounts of XP. However, it becomes too time consuming to level up at higher levels.
- Having a LEGENDARY Grandma Wolf Pet in your pets menu will provide a +15% Combat XP boost with a kill combo of at least 20.
- If the player owns a Spider Pet of LEGENDARY rarity, the Tarantula Minion provides the highest XP rates. However, one must be AFK on their island for the boost to take effect.
- Should the player not own the aforementioned pet, the Revenant Minion provides the next highest XP rates.
Foraging[]
See also: Foraging
- Using a Treecapitator with the Toil reforge in the Dark Oak Forest with a LEGENDARY Monkey Pet and 400 ✦Speed will provide the highest Foraging XP rates in the game.
- The player is assumed to be under the effects of a God Potion and thus able to reach 400 ✦Speed easily. If this is not the case, Young Dragon Armor should be used to reach 400 ✦Speed.
- Alternatively, on your private island, get Dark Oak Saplings, Enchanted Bone Meals and a Treecapitator in your inventory. Stare at the center of four dirt blocks placed together as a square. Quickly spam four saplings and one enchanted bone meal on it, then chop it, and repeat. This method is considerably less annoying because you can avoid getting into other players competing for resources in the Dark Oak Forest, or spend time going to each tree before chopping it off. It is estimated that over 1 million experience can be made per hour with this setup and the monkey.[1]
- If the player does not own a LEGENDARY Monkey, an Ocelot Pet will suffice.
- It is not advised to use Foraging Minions as they are slow and costly, for minimal XP gain. Should the player nonetheless choose to use Minions, Oak Minions with a nearby Woodcutting Crystal will provide the highest XP rates.
Fishing[]
See also: Fishing
- Maximum Fishing XP rates are obtained by maximising αSea Creature Chance. This can be done with a Dolphin Pet,Submerged Shark Scale Armor and a Rod of the Sea reforged to Salty or Treacherous.
- Spiked or Whale bait should also be used to this effect.
- Wealthy players should consider applying the Legion enchantment to their armour for higher αSea Creature Chance.
- Players should also own a Squid Pet. Refer to the section below this for an explanation.
- Fishing should be done in the Spider's Den or The Park as the rain that occurs there increases αSea Creature Chance.
- It also goes that players looking for maximum XP/hr should not fish in Jerry's Workshop or the Crystal Hollows as these areas do not rain and do not maximise αSea Creature Chance.
- Players with a Autopet Rules can consider setting 2 conditions as such:
- Condition 1)
- Condition 2)
- When: On throw fishing hook; equip Dolphin Pet
- The above conditions will cause the player to swap to the Dolphin to increase αSea Creature Chance, then swap to the Squid when a Sea Creature spawns to take advantage of its Fishing XP boost.
- Fishing Minions give the best XP rates at Tier XI, but it is outclassed by the Clay Minion at all lower Tiers. Players may still choose to use a Clay Minion as it provides more Coins than the Fishing Minion.
Enchanting[]
See also: Enchanting
- Doing experiments on the Experimentation Table daily will give the maximum Enchanting XP, as experience from the Enchantment Table is capped. There are Community Resources/Mods that provide solvers for the table so as to not require the player to memorise the patterns. Players should equip a Guardian Pet so as to increase the XP they earn.
- No Minions directly provides Enchanting XP. However, players may wish to use Lapis Minions to craft their own Experience Bottles to aid in gaining the Experience required to do the experiments in the Experimentation Table.
Alchemy[]
See also: Alchemy
- Brewing Potions is the best way to gain Alchemy XP. Using Enchanted Fermented Spider Eyes to brew Weakness Potions is the cheapest, but slowest conventional method to gain Alchemy XP. Alternatives include the middle-ground Enchanted Sugar Cane to brew Speed Potions, and the expensive but fastest Enchanted Blaze Rod which can be brewed into Strength potions.
- Players who wish to recoup their investment can add Glowstone to their potions to increase their sell value.
- Brewing by hand is slow and tedious, and it is recommended to construct an automatic brewer. Various tutorials can be found on YouTube for such machines.
- No pet directly increases Alchemy XP gain. However, the Sheep Pet and Parrot Pet are Alchemy pets and as such will gain a large amount of XP from the player. Players may wish to take the opportunity level these pets up while grinding XP.
- Similarly, no Minion directly increase XP gain. However, players may choose to use a Sugar Cane Minion or Cave Spider Minion to generate Enchanted Sugar Cane and Enchanted Fermented Spider Eyes respectively to lessen the upfront cost of grinding .
- The only crop that gives Alchemy XP is Nether Wart and it can give medium amounts of Alchemy XP, but becomes unreliable towards higher levels of Alchemy.
Carpentry[]
See also: Carpentry
- Since Carpentry is no longer a cosmetic skill, crafting items is the best way to gain Carpentry XP. Some good ways of leveling the skill up are crafting Sapphire Power Scrolls, or using an online calculator to find the best, updated items to craft.
Taming[]
See also: Taming
- Taming is levelled up passively from equipping Pets while playing SkyBlock normally. Players will hit Taming 50 naturally as they play the game. However, players who wish to get high Taming quickly should look to grinding Enchanting and Alchemy with the methods mentioned above while equipping a Guardian Pet for Enchanting or a Sheep/Parrot pet for Alchemy.
