Hello Faders,
After countless hours of updating and working with the team we are proud to release our brand new Skyblock Season! This is going to be a long post but bear with me!
RESET TIME: 3 PM EST - September 11 2021

Pets Revamp
The pets on skyblock were supper dull. We've added a new system to improve on that. You can now ascend pets for better boosts & loot. The following are the tiers & requirements for pet ascention:
- Common -> Epic (10 Common Pets)
- Epic -> Epic+ (1 Epic Pet)
- Epic+ -> Rare (1 Epic+ Pet)
- Rare -> Rare+ (1 Rare Pet)
- Rare+ -> Unique (1 Rare+ Pet)
- Unique -> Unique+ (1 Unique Pet)
- Unique+ -> Legendary (1 Unique+ Pet)
- Legendary -> Legendary+ (1 Legendary Pet)
- Legendary+ -> Mythical (1 Legendary+ Pet)
- Mythical -> Mythical+ (1 Mythical Pet)
- Mythical+ -> Ascended (1 Mythical+ Pet)
As you can see you have a lot of tiers to go through. You can obtain pets from Crate Keys (Lucky keys included), Pet Boxes, Gem Shop, Mineshaft and rewards (see below)
We only kept four pets, Strength, Money, Gems and EXP. We will be adding more in the future.
All pets are now leveled up with experience so save up!
Rewards
We always have a pass whether its a mineshaft leveling pass or a full on battlepass with rich challenges. This season were doing it different. We removed both passes and combined it with a new system called "Rewards"
Rewards is a plugin created to reward players for playing the game of skyblock. For example, you can get rewarded for killing mobs, leveling up, Finishing quests, etc..
You can also pay for premium rewards from each section. However, free rewards will feel just as rewarding as premium!
(Rewards Above are not up to scale and are just for show)
Old Enchants
We decided to go back to the old enchant system because the current one did not work as expected for this season. All the old enchants and new ones will be available again.
Powers
Since we went back to the old enchant system, we're introducing powers for those lucky keys you get from grinding. This also includes other types of powers like making money from just killing spawner mobs.
There will also be a level system that you can levelup with. This level system will be the main way to go to the mineshaft and unlock powers! You can level up with /levelup or /levelup max!
Aliens
We scrapped out the old robot system that we have and just changed back to the better one you guys loved. We gave the new system a little of a rename to keep stuff a bit more fresh.
Aliens will kill ALL mobs within a radius and add them to their virtual chests. You can place down chunk collectors to store more items within the chest if the aliens storage gets full! Likewise, you can also disable his storage.
Aliens also have levels attached to them. Each level will increase the chances of the alien gaining 2x drops from killing mobs.
We also added a fuel system that will allow the alien to actually grind mobs, You can obtain fuel from the mineshaft, crates or the gemshop.
Robots
Robots will replace generators. You can obtain different types of robots, money, gems, exp, all of those will help you through your skyblock adventures. You can also upgrade their tiers and levels with gems!
Bulk Crate Key Opening
Yes I know this is very well known but I still see people left clicking 1000's of crate keys to open them so I thought making a post about this might help!
You can now simply press 'Q' or your desired "Drop" button to bulk open 1000's of keys in an instant!
And that's all for now. We got more things planned but had to work on recoding our code base that will allow us to scale our servers further in the future! I would get into it but I don't think anyone cares.
