If you could have one item...

These questions are intended to be lighthearted but "serious". The idea is it gives us - new players and experienced alike - a chance to see how others approach the game and what they find useful or needful.

SO ...
If Farmerama allowed you to have ONE tree of ANY type, what would it be and why?
If they allowed ONE animal what would you choose and why?
If they allowed ONE workshop, what and why?

Stating your current level might be helpful since things at one level are more important than at other times.

Level 94
Tree - suzy tree - very useful!
Animal - chicken - poop is always useful, for either events or cc's.
Workshop - chopstick factory - Baha ep heaven once upgraded

 

Hey BeeDance, great idea for a thread! Thank you. But what about yourself? What are your favorites?

Mine

Tree - Gold leaf: the only tree that still has the goofiness of young Farmerama
Animal - Butterfly: the most beautiful of pens!
Workshop - have to say Bio-glue, new and funky

That concludes the vote from the Swedish jury

 

ps - I guess I should started this off - sorry!

Tree - I'm torn between blackthorn and Buddha hand.
Animal - Wolf. I don't have a use as such for it but it sells well.
Workshop - Bio Glue.

I'm sure people's choices change as they go through the game and I thought this might be a way to for players to see what we think is usless right now might be valuable later or the other way around. I suspect the things I think I can't live without may be of little value as the game progresses. So I hoped we might all glean ideas of what is ahead and more importantly Why some might be more or less useful. I realize the forums are full of info for what is required in quests and such, but since everyone plays a bit differently I thought this could give some insight.

I have read threads where some only grow animals or trees and buy everything else.

 

Ah-ha, I was speaking with my heart with my favorites; if I was to speak with my brains the list would be completely different;

Tree - Blackthorn Plum. Has made me millions in recent times
Crop - Raspberries - has been my cash crop for a couple of years
Animal - Glowworm
Workshop - still Bio Glue

 

Level 68

In a game where every player had the one per restriction my choices would be:

Tree - Apple. You can't get far in this game without them and the demand would far out weigh the supply so the prices would be outrageous.

Animal - Monkey. Only 3 1/2 hours to produce and already a good seller.

Workshop - Bikini boutique. Honestly I don't have enough experience with them at this point to really decide this. I went with the only thing I would have the animals for without having to buy them.

Crop - I'm torn between corn or wheat. Both are needed for many things but in the end I think wheat will win out. Mostly since I think a lot of people will choose chickens and they have to buy their food from someone.

If it's just me with the one per restrictions then my choices would be different.

Tree- Blackthorn Plum. They are a money maker
Animal- I'm sticking with monkey for the same reasons I picked it first
Crop- Tomatoes. They sell well for me at this time already since they are used in PF production.
Workshop- I think I will stick with my original choice again for the same reason.

 

Level 66
My head hurts.

I seem to be changing every time I read more forums.
To me the choices are in two areas of the farming brain.

For makin the coinage.

Tree- Tamarind my most fav. makes my money
Animal- Chicken, fast, sells well, and the product sells on that market no matter the time of day.
Crop- The longest time one hands down, drops and market value never loses.
Workshop- I am not savvy enough for this one yet, so can't really say ya or nay on any right now heck I am still confused about:



I can't figure out the meaning you press the button once you have the tools and animals needed to build the higher up pen or product maker, sooo what is it 10% faster in?
Yes, I am thicker than frozen lemon ice.

Now for I likie it:

Tree- Coconuts they are fun
Animal- Bat, I love the little guys
Crop- Pumpkin, Due to past always will have good memories with them
Workshop- right now Crows, they are little bandits! gotta love the hoard.

 

@100keltic

That rune reduces the time it takes your workshops to produce an item by 10%. It does not have anything to do with how long it takes to build the workshop itself but affects the amount of time it takes the workshop to produce it's goods.

Hope that makes sense.

 

Thank-you Clashstrummer for your time.

But Nope. I still don't see it, <faster tool drops, less tools needed?> but I will write it off as something beyond my poor brain.
It is the next rune up the tree for me, I took a straight shot up just going right to get the breeding ones, it's next so will work it, as the writings all say to go for the legend one asap.

 

Nothing to do with tools

An egg farm usually takes 24hrs to produce an egg (without water). With the workshop rune it will be 10% faster, so that it only takes approximately 21,5 hrs Same with all the other workshops

 

Tree - BB tree, because how can you beat money growing on a tree
Not sure about the other 2, will have to think about it after I get some sleep, been a loooong day and totally exhausted. Will update with my other choices later this afternoon .

And Clash, you're absolutely right, apples are fundamental to almost everything in this game. So much so that you can't realistically grow them yourself, or at least I couldn't when I first started, so it's a good idea to build stock when they're at good prices in the market.

 

Ahhhh, ok

Finished workshops production speed now I get it.
Yes, as for that thank-you Mir85.
Why can't they just say that

Yes, for workshop then I would have to say any red/pink !
I am thinking down the road to buy a lot of apple trees and just let them grow with these new long crops almost 20 hours! think one would need like 70 apple trees to really get your own needs met.

 

Hi!
That's a great question!

1. Sorb Tree, because this is the only one, that I haven't got (including BB-tree )
2. Kivi, the same situation, I got a platypus from the bats so now this is the only one I want to have
3. The workshop of the butterfly, I'm so excited about it!

 

The butterfly has a workshop? Wow! I'd like one of those!

 

Not yet, but there is a rumor in the grapevine

 

Tree: Amherstia - making a killing with this one at the moment thanks to some very lucky secret seedlings.
Animal pen: Bat especially the red one, I love bats.
Workshop: cheese factory just because I love it.

 

This is great! There are several things I did not know existed (BB tree, cheese factory, etc). About the time I think I have a handle on what's going on I find out how clueless I really am! (Not that that surprises anyone of course...)

 

Level 89
1. BB tree, I will agree with spots and Gery
I am not sure which animal and workshop I would prefer but I think it would have been the same(example chicken and egg farm)
I would also choose a Magic Tree from items.

 

level 80....tree (just because it looks neat and it changes with every event) magical tree; animal stall FROGS...just cuz I love them!! And work shop would have to be bikini workshop..(I love watching those crazy monkeys!!)

 

Okay, had some time to sleep, tho still tired *yawn*. For my favorite animal pen, I think I'd go with the pink fishy, because it was my first pink stall, and I earned it all by my lonesome, with fishies I bred myself (all my other pinks have either been mystery stables or event prizes). As for workshop, hmmm...I like the red cookware forge; I love that dragon donkey!

(Nice to see you back, Gerry, haven't seen you around for a while!)
