Changelog
The following are the most important features/modifications implemented toward this season's map and functions.
New! Collections
Collections in this game are available for every type of mob that can drop a spawner.
To level up a collection, you need to kill the specific type of mob associated with that collection.
Each level in the collection has a set milestone of mobs you need to kill to progress.
As you reach higher collection levels, you unlock more spawners, which help you gather more resources and advance in the game.
As we would like to see players play together, these collections are shared within your island, so every island member can contribute to upgrade your collection level by grinding mobs.
New! Spawners
We have simplified spawners and removed magic spawners, there are two types: normal and enchanted spawners.
Spawners can stack up to 100. Once you reach 100 spawners in a stack, you can combine them to create an enchanted spawner.
This enchanted spawner will then spawn the enchanted version of the mob, which drops better loot.
Enchanted drops can be sold for more money in the /shop than normal spawner drops, it is essential to grind for enchanted spawners to make more money and advance your island.
New! Spawner Shop
We have updated the spawner shop, there are a total of 31 spawners available in the game.
These spawners can be purchased from the new spawner shop. However, most spawners are locked behind collection levels.
To get better spawners, you need to reach certain levels in multiple lower mob collections.
This makes the new spawner shop more progressive, encouraging you to grind more and work through the different collection levels to unlock and purchase higher-tier spawners.
New! Quest Level
We're super happy to share a big update: our new Quest Level system!
This new system combines the best parts of Player Levels and Challenges.
Climb through the new levels
Now, you'll love what we brought back from Player Levels
You get a new thing called Quest Level. It goes up when you finish quests, which start on their own now - no need to buy them.
Every quest you complete gives you Quest Experience, bumping up your Quest Level, kind of like the old Player Levels from Season 1.
Big rewards are waiting
For certain levels, there are specific rewards you can get, besides the Quest Cases you already get from finishing quests.
This means more prizes and clear goals to hit.
New! Island Level
The island level system has been overhauled. Island missions no longer exist.
Now, your island level scales with your progress in the quest level system. Every quest completed by your island members contributes to your island experience.
To level up your island, you need to complete quests in the new quest level system.
This change ties island growth directly to the achievements and activities of your members, making teamwork and quest completion essential for island advancement.
Updated! Island Top
We have removed mining fragments as a factor for determining the island top ranking, so your island crystal no longer exists.
Now, the ranking is based only on the new spawners and stacked valuable blocks.
This change simplifies the ranking system and focuses on the progress you make with spawners and the valuable blocks you collect and stack on your island.
Updated! Island Upgrades
Island upgrades have also been overhauled. Since missions have been removed, shards are no longer used.
Now, your island upgrades scale with your island level. Each upgrade automatically improves every X levels, depending on the specific upgrade.
This new system simplifies the upgrade process and ensures that your island's capabilities grow steadily as you level up through quest completion.
Updated! Transfer
We have overhauled the transfer shop, updating both the prices and the items available. Additionally, the stock is now global rather than personal, making these items more valuable due to limited availability.
The transfer shop now refreshes every 6 hours, featuring only rotating items. This change ensures a dynamic and competitive market, encouraging players to check back frequently for new and rare items.
Updated! Shop
We've added a bunch of new blocks that you can use to decorate your island and make it uniquely yours.
Head over to the /shop now to explore a wide variety of new decorative blocks.
Updated! Crates
We've made significant improvements to our crates, compared to the previous season, making every key feel more rewarding like they are supposed to feel like once again.
Better rewards are returning.
For this season we will be slightly changing the crates again, and making them more rewarding as you all know and love.
A brand new seasonal crate.
The seasonal crate has undergone a complete transformation, we're thrilled to introduce brand new rewards that are worth opening the crate for. Especially because this key can now also be earned by completing quests, we feel like making it more rewarding is the right way to go.
