Water Drops are the essential event currency introduced in the Desert Dunes update of Raise Animals Roblox. They are the key to purchasing exclusive items from the Oasis Revival shop, including the highly sought-after Anubis. Unlike cash or other currencies, Water Drops have a unique farming method. This guide will explain everything you need to know to efficiently collect Water Drops and secure the best rewards.
What Are Water Drops and Why Do You Need Them?
Water Drops are a limited-time currency used exclusively at the Oasis Revival shop. This shop offers unique cosmetics and, most importantly, rare animals that are difficult to obtain elsewhere. The most notable prize is Anubis, which costs a staggering 60,000 Water Drops. Other items like the Bone Fence are also available, making Water Drops a top priority for any dedicated player.
How Water Drops Production Works
The primary way to get Water Drops is not through minigames, but through passive production from your animals.
Source: Only animals with the “Desert” tag produce Water Drops.
Mechanic: Each Desert animal in your plot produces a set amount of Water Drops every 5 minutes.
Offline Progress: The production continues even when you are offline. As long as the animals are placed on your plot, they will generate Water Drops that you can collect when you log back in.
Water Drops Production List (Per Animal)
Here is how much each Desert animal produces every 5 minutes. This highlights which animals are the most efficient.
| Animal | Water Drops Produced (per 5 mins) |
|---|---|
| Anubis | 70 |
| Pharaoh Eagle | 60 |
| Deathstalker Scorpion | 50 |
| Camel | 40 |
| Sand Cat | 40 |
| Fennec Fox | 25 |
| Sidewinder Snake | 10 |
| Sand Scorpion | 10 |
| Lizard | 5 |
How to Get Water Drops: Farming Methods
To maximize your Water Drops income, you need to employ several strategies.
Place Desert Animals on Your Plot: This is the fundamental method. The more Desert animals you have, and the higher their production value, the more Water Drops you will earn.
Fill Every Plot Slot: Ensure you have no empty slots on your plot. Every vacant slot is a missed opportunity for Water Drops production.
Use an Alternate (Alt) Account: This is a highly effective strategy. Use an alt account to capture common Desert animals like Sand Scorpions, Camels, or Sidewinder Snakes. You can then trade these animals to your main account to fill your plot quickly.
Check the Shop Regularly: The in-game shop occasionally sells Desert animals for cash. While the stock is random, purchasing them is a quick way to boost your production line.
Best Animals for Water Drops & Farming Strategy
Your farming strategy will evolve as you collect more Water Drops.
The Fastest Water Drops Farming Strategy
Unlock Desert Dunes: First, you need access to the source. Unlock the Desert Dunes biome, which costs $7,500,000 in-game cash.
Initial Capture: Go to the Desert Dunes and capture as many animals as you can to start your collection.
Pharaoh Eagle Focus: The Pharaoh Eagle is the best early-game workhorse for Water Drops farming. It produces a high amount (60) and, crucially, has no capture limit, unlike some other animals. Aim to fill all 15 of your plot slots with Pharaoh Eagles.
The Anubis Loop: Once your team of Pharaoh Eagles has produced 60,000 Water Drops, go to the Oasis Revival shop and buy your first Anubis. Place it on your plot to replace one Pharaoh Eagle. This will slightly increase your production rate. Repeat this process—using your current animals to farm for the next Anubis—until your plot is full of them.
Animal Tier List for Water Production:
Best (End-Game): Anubis (70/5 mins) – The ultimate goal.
Excellent (Early-Game): Pharaoh Eagle (60/5 mins) – Reliable and unlimited.
Good (Support): Deathstalker Scorpion (50/5 mins) – A solid find.
How to Get Anubis
The primary and most reliable method to get Anubis is by purchasing it from the Oasis Revival shop for 60,000 Water Drops. While there might be extremely rare alternate methods, focusing on optimizing your Water Drops production is the guaranteed way to add this powerful producer to your collection.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q: Do I need to be online to get Water Drops?
A: No, you do not. The animals on your plot will produce Water Drops offline. You just need to log in to collect them from the producer.
Q: What is the best animal for farming Water Drops?
A: Anubis is the best per slot, but since you need Water Drops to get it, the Pharaoh Eagle is the best animal you can farm indefinitely to start your production line.
Q: Can I get Water Drops from minigames?
A: No, Water Drops are only produced by Desert animals placed on your plot. There is no minigame that rewards them.
Q: How many plot slots are there?
A: There are 15 plot slots available for placing animals.
Conclusion
Earning Water Drops in Raise Animals is a test of patience and strategy. By unlocking the Desert Dunes, focusing on high-yield animals like the Pharaoh Eagle, and ensuring your plot is always full, you can create a powerful passive income of Water Drops. Remember to use an alt account to speed up the process and keep your eyes on the prize: a plot full of Anubis animals from the Oasis Revival shop. Happy farming.
