Hello!
The community completed the second city project, the Blacksmith Workspace.
Along with this update, we are releasing a few more features...
Blacksmith Workspace[]
Upgraded Blacksmith area, now its own zone with two floors On top of its upgraded looks, the Blacksmith now houses the Smithmonger NPC.
The Smithmonger is a shop offering 5 reforge stones:
- Moil, 50k axe reforge, req Mining lvl 5, grants up to +3% foraging exp,
- Dirty, 100k sword/rods reforge, req Mining lvl 10, grants up to 15 STR, 20 AS & 15 Ferocity
- Toil, 1m axe reforge, req Mining lvl 25, grants up to 20 STR, 20 CD & +6% foraging exp
- Refined, 1m pickaxe reforge, req Mining lvl 25, grants up to 20 defense, +6% mining exp & +0.1% chance to drop the enchanted mined ores
- Blessed, 1m hoe reforge, req Mining lvl 25, grants up to 20 speed, 6% farming exp & +20% chance for double crops
The smithmonger also offers a 2m Reforge Anvil for convenience, or you can use the anvil in front of him to apply the reforge stones. It is also believed half-price reforges have been removed.
New Bits Shop Items[]
We added 3 new items to the bits shop: The Builder's Wand lets you build your dream farm (or anything) way faster
Functions like Expertise, but for Mining
Accelerate your Bits acquisition (still capped by your Bits Available)
New Stat: Ferocity[]
As seen in the player menu when you have at least 1 ferocity For the longest time, Attack Speed wasn't a functional stat in SkyBlock. During that period, one of our internal proposed solution was for AS to increase proc multiple strikes. We then added this behavior with a cool visual FX on the Tiger pet and took a different path for Attack Speed.
But the idea is making a comeback in the form of a new damage stat!
Essentially, Merciless Swipe from Tiger is now a player stat which can appear on any item, pet, enchant, etc.. Updated Tiger Pet, with +20 total Ferocity We retconned +5 Ferocity on Pigman, Ghoul, Hound & Megalodon and +10 on Ocelot pet.
The Shredder also got a +50 Ferocity buff.
The new Dirty reforge has +15 Ferocity on Mythic swords.
Darker Auctions[]
As Scorpius is getting elected, there are a bundle of temporary new items in the Dark Auction.
Since they are available for a limited time (5 days while Scorpius is enabled), we will share them here so that everyone has access to the info they need.
Scorpius auctions have 7 rounds, going as follow:
Item -> Book -> Item -> Book -> Scorpius Bonus -> Flower Minion -> Midas' Staff
Counter-Strike, applicable on your chestplate
Book Bundles are a new concept to try and increase availability of these limited enchants a little bit.
Big Brain is only applicable on your helmet
Vicious is applicable to swords
The Vicious V book was also permanently added to the normal Dark Auction
The Plasmaflux actually sells in the DA as a recipe item
It requires an Overflux in order to craft
In case you wanted more stats
Midas' Mage item
That's it for today!
Enjoy!
