What you do when a spot is picked. Each way counts the best one you tick on the calculator.

  3. A round: 64 s for 4 pickups.
RouteCounted
1,475coins an hour · 295 pickups
  1. 5 spots, one pickup each: 1 s at each.
  2. Round the loop: 107 blocks in 49 s at speed 100, sprinting.
  3. Back at the first, it ran out 53 s ago, short of its 60 s respawn: wait 7.2 s.
  4. A round: 61 s for 5 pickups.

Each server has its own spots, as players entered it; we assume a server swap puts you back next to the spot. A swap takes 15 s, the game's cooldown. A spot's respawn counts from when it is picked, and other players aren't counted. Travel is 4.3 blocks a second walking and 5.6 sprinting at speed 100, a jump as sprinting; swimming counts at 2.2, Minecraft's usual: we don't have data yet on swimming speed on Isles.

The route: 5 Raw Kelps

The quickest loop of 5 we found on the map, found with the route finder (swimming and jumps on). We try loops of 2 to 6; this one picks up the most an hour.

Gatherables count the facts players entered: items a pickup, its respawn and the time a pickup takes. Your gathering stats aren't counted there: we don't have data yet on whether they change a pickup. Back to the calculator.

Most items don't have a merchant price on the wiki yetOnly 208 items have one so far. Coins an hour count only the drops we have a price for, so a way can be worth more than it shows here. Each result says how much of what it drops is priced. Prices are what a merchant pays, entered by players and checked before they go live.
