Spleef Event:
Skyblock has been long neglected when it comes to events. For many years now, the only 2 available events on Skyblock have been Boss Battles and Envoys, both of which are PvP oriented. This upcoming season, a brand new event will be making an appearance - Spleef Arena! Spleef is a classic Minecraft minigame where you need to dig the snow below your opponents in attempt to make them fall into the water below. The last surviving player will be deemed the winner!

Ravager Pets:
One of the biggest changes players will see next season is the introduction of island pets. Our first island pet to launch is the Ravager which can be purchased from the Coinshop. Ravager pets will instantly attack and kill all mobs that enter within a 5 block radius, allowing for unique new grinder setups. Ravager pets are a huge help when it comes to unlocking the higher tiered spawners (all mobs killed by pet Ravagers will unlock tiered spawners at double the speed). Look after your pets and remember to keep them fed!

Winter Keys:
Winter keys are a brand new type of key which are only available to purchase until the end of February. These keys are unique in the way they work, giving players a guaranteed 5 rewards (2 of which are limited edition chat tags). There are currently 7 available chat tags for players to collect, all of which can be viewed and activated by using the command /tags. The only way to obtain these chat tags is by opening these limited edition keys, or purchasing them from another player (auction house).

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! Players can expect to see brand new builds alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!

The time has come once again for our Prison server to start a brand new chapter. This season is focussed on adding as much new content as possible to keep the game feeling modern and fresh! Players can expect to see some massive new features this upcoming season such as Mob Armor, Prison Dungeons, Ability Runestones and much more! This changelog will detail all changes big and small for our upcoming Prison Reset which will be dropping this upcoming Friday 16th December 3pm MST.

Mob Armor:
This upcoming Prison season will be introducing 7 brand new and unique sets of armor known as 'Mob Armor'. These rare new armor sets are crafted using the skulls of mobs (which can be obtained with the decapitation custom enchantment). Whilst wearing a full set of Mob Armor, players will be granted access to a huge piece of new Prison content known as Dungeons (more information below). Depending on which set of Mob armor you choose to wear will drastically change your approach to the newly added dungeons!

Prison Dungeons:
Dungeons are one of the largest pieces of new content to make it's way to Prison in recent years. Players are able to enter a dungeon by equipping a full set of mob armor and using the command /dungeon. Dungeons are a pure PvE experience where players will battle waves of mobs which will progressively get harder. The goal of dungeons is simple: Progress through as many waves as possible, and be rewarded with Dungeon Credits which can be used to upgrade the brand new Ability Runestone (more information below).

Players are able to participate in dungeons with up to 3 other friends (4 players in total) but be warned! The difficulty of the dungeon will scale depending on how many players you choose to participate with. When playing with friends, players must all choose a different set of mob armor when entering the dungeon. Teamwork is key, and selecting the correct mob armor for your playstyle is vital. Good Luck!

Ability Runestone:
Ability Runestones are a brand new item which are making their way to Prison. All players will receive a runestone in their inventory upon joining the server for the first time (players can also use /kit runestone). Runestones are a physical item which will activate an ability upon left click whilst holding the Runestone in your hand. Players are able to upgrade their Runestone by right clicking whilst holding the Runestone in their hand.

Abilities can be purchased for your Runestone using Dungeon Credits (obtained by participating in the newly added dungeons). As of this upcoming season, there will be 6 abilities available for players to purchase and upgrade on their Runestones, ranging from potion effects (used primarily for PvP) to massive mining abilities such as Pipe Bombs, Thor Strikes and much more!

Care Packages:
Out with the old, in with the new! Care Packages will act as a direct replacement to our old Envoys system (which has been left untouched and abandoned for many years now). Care packages will drop 6 times throughout the day, providing a more PvP focussed experience alongside much more valuable rewards. The player whom successfully opens the care package will be deemed the winner!

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! Players can expect to see brand new builds alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!

AlexMarkey Nov 22, 2022 at 6:33 AM Posted By AlexMarkey {date} at {time}

The time has come for our Lifesteal server to start a brand new chapter. This season is focussed on adding as much new content and fixes as possible to this brand new gamemode! Players can expect to see epic new features this upcoming season such as an Obscure Zone, Last Man Standing Event, Boss Battle Event, Supply Drops and much more! This changelog will detail all changes big and small for our upcoming Lifesteal Reset which will be dropping this upcoming Friday 25th November 3pm MST.

Upcoming Changes
- 1.19 Boss Event has now been added
- 1.19 Last Man Standing event has now been added
- Care Package event has now been added to the Warzone

- New command /outpost has been added, allowing players to view outpost information anywhere on the server

Obscure Zone:
The Obscure Zone is located directly outside of spawn inside the Warzone. This zone will act as the home to the all new Obscurus mob which will drop Obscure Shards upon being killed (which can then be sold for profit). Grinding the obscure zone will be one of the most efficient ways to make money, but be warned! As this is located in the warzone, it will act as a highly contested PvP hotspot for enemy players!

Important Gameplay Changes:
As lifesteal is a new gamemodes which is still maturing, a few changes will be making their way next season. Firstly the maximum amount of hearts that a player can have is now 30. Players can also expect to see a reduced map size of 10,000 x 10,000 (in attempt to increase the amount of raids). Lastly, upon killing a player whilst you have max hearts, that player will now drop a heart container when they die, allowing you to pick it up!

Boss Battle:
Boss battle is the first event making its way to Lifesteal with this reset. This event will also take place on a 1.19 backend, making use of the new combat mechanics. The goal here is simple, gather your clan and kill the boss! The player whom deals the most damage to the boss will be deemed the winner and receive an event key. Good luck!

Last Man Standing:
This upcoming season, Lifesteal players can now participate in our Last Man Standing event. This event will take place 3 times per day, and the goal is simple: Kill all other players in the arena to be the last man standing! This event will run on a 1.19 backend, and will make use of the new combat mechanics. Good luck, the winner shall receive an event key!

Care Package:
The third and final event making its way to Lifesteal are care packages. Care packages will drop 6 times throughout the day in the Lifesteal Warzone (located outside of spawn). The player whom successfully opens the care package will be deemed the winner and will be rewarded with an event key!

Miscellaneous Changes
As always with new seasons, it is our primary focus to ensure we deliver enough content, quality of life changes and bug fixes to satisfy our community! Players can expect to see brand new builds alongside a smoother gameplay experience with a handful of our backend plugins being updated with performance improvements. We look forward to seeing everyone this Friday. As always, enjoy!
