Private Island

The Private Island (also known as the Player's Island) is where all players begin their SkyBlock adventure. Players can build, and break blocks freely here, allowing them to customize their island to their liking. They can also place Minions to help harvest resources, as well as Portals to quickly travel to and from their island.

If you fall to the void, you do not lose any coins, except if you get knocked into the void or killed by a mob, suffocating in a block, dying of fall damage will cause the same effect. (Being in combat and then falling into the void by yourself will not make you lose any coins. You must have been knocked into the void by a mob.)

Initial island state
When a player first starts, they will be spawned on one of two islands, both the "Player's Island". The first island consists of trees, some stone, dirt, and other materials. Players will be prompted to do some simple tasks before making their way to the second island. The game will be played like any normal SkyBlock game during this stage, using only the resources you start off with. After finishing the tasks for the first quest, the player will be told to reach the portal to get to the Hub World.

The second initial island contains the Hub World Portal, a Cobblestone Minion, Jerry, and a small cave with a chest inside that contains a few items, including a Lava Bucket and a Water Bucket for a Cobblestone Generator (a key component of non-Hypixel SkyBlock, though not very important in Hypixel SkyBlock). The chest also contains 3 Bone Meal, 5 Dirt, 7 Grass and 8 Cobblestone.

Progression
From here on out, players will be able to progress through quests that are available from the hub and all the locations accessible from there. These locations allow them to gather additional resources which will, in turn, allow them to level up Skills and Collections, that can then be used to improve their islands.

Mobs
Be aware that mobs will still naturally spawn on the island when it is dark enough. This can be prevented in various ways:
 * Placing a Repelling Candle to prevent hostile mob spawning at all.
 * Placing plenty of torches to keep light level high
 * It is common to place a Day Saver on your island to make it permanently day; this will make your island continuously illuminated by the sun and prevent mobs from spawning. Do note that the Day Saver does not prevent mobs from spawning when it is raining or under overhangs. It is also recommended to use a Biome Stick (taiga, end or nether) as this will change weather and mob spawning.

Uses
There are practically infinite ways you can modify your island. It could be a house. It could be a storage island, just filled with chests. It could be nothing if you really wanted. It could be a minion place, where you store all your minions. It could be really anything you can think of. However, it is common to setup some farms for various purposes (money or skill experience). Some of these farms include pumpkin farm (best for xp), sugar cane farm, cocoa bean farm, and more. You can go to your island settings to set what the island experience will be; for example, parkour, replica, portal hub, etc.

Many people use their islands mostly for function, yet some spend a lot of time working on aesthetically pleasing islands for you to check out. You can check these people out, and you can also get social xp for doing so! Trading centers are commonly found on islands, and make a great place to store your stuff, and make a few (possibly million) coins!

Spawn Location
Players can set their spawn position by using /spawnlocation, /setspawn, /sethome, or sleep on a bed where they want to set their island spawn location to. This will not be where Guests will spawn when they visit the Private Island, they will spawn at the original spawn location on the island unless it is obstructed, in which guests would spawn at the top of the obstruction. Players can set the spawn location where Guests spawn by using /guestlocation.

Visiting/kicking
Players can visit other islands/allow others to visit them. When there is a visitor, the owner can do /sbkickall to kick all players or /sbkick to kick one specific player. Kicking a player also temporarily bans them on the island.

Restrictions
There are, in fact, some things you cannot do on your island. The default island size is 161x161 (shown as 160x160) but it can be increased through your account and profile upgrades. Trying to build outside the limits will tell the player. You can't travel vertically past Y:384, being teleported 1 block below with no additional message, if a player travels up that high.

Since Patch 0.5, Redstone has been allowed on Player Islands, with certain mechanical limitations.

Each island has a Redstone Meter that appears on the scoreboard when a contraption, such as a lever connected to a wire, is activated. When the meter reaches 100%, redstone on the island will be disabled for 10 seconds. Note that any redstone feature changes this meter, including levers, buttons, etc. that are not connected to redstone.

Pistons are placeable, but are currently disabled - they will not activate.

Minecarts are currently disabled due to performance issues and dupe exploits found in the past.

Mobs do not spawn on your island on your first full SkyBlock night.

Visiting
You can also visit other islands by typing /visit. Settings can be changed so that either Anyone, Friends or Guild members can only visit. The amount of visitors can be increased by Elizabeth with the Guest Limit upgrade which the first upgrade is free, however thereon after it requires gems.

The amount of visitors on an island depends on the highest rank that owns that island. This is shown in the table below. Note that stats are based on Solo Profiles.
