​

Changelog​
​
The most important features and modifications coming with this update are listed below.​
​
​
🖥️ New! 26.2 Server Version​

OpLifesteal has been updated to Minecraft version 26.2!​
​
The server now runs on the latest version, offering better performance and new features.​
You can still join using older versions, but we highly recommend updating to 26.2 for the best experience.​


🏛️ New! Spawn​

A season means a brand new spawn, and this time OpLifesteal has received a fresh starting area for everyone to explore.​
For this season we have decided to go with Castle theme.​
​
❓ Are you looking for help? NPCs explain all features.​
🔑 A new seasonal crate has been added.​


📜 New! Scrolls​

Scrolls have been added to OpLifesteal this season. They give you a new type of item to collect, trade and use on the server.​
​
You can get them while playing and use them to improve your gear.​
​
📜 Scrolls​
Keep an eye out for scrolls as you play. They are a brand new way to get stronger this season.​


🌍 New! Custom Survival World Generation​

The survival world has brand new terrain generation. The world you explore this season is not a normal vanilla world anymore.​
​
You will find new landscapes while you travel and build. This gives every base location a fresh look.​
​
🗺️ New Terrain​
Take your time to explore. The custom generation changes how the world looks and feels while you search for a place to build.​


🏪 New! Rotational Gold Shop​

A new rotational gold shop has been added. The items in this shop change over time and are sold at discounted prices.​
​
You can spend your gold on classes, level items, spawners and boss sets.​
​
  • All classes (separately) at 75% their normal price
  • Premium level pass - 1500 gold
  • Level skip - 200 gold
  • Super level skip - 350 gold
  • Stronghold starter - 300 gold
  • 16x Zombie spawner - 500 gold
  • 16x Piglin spawner - 500 gold
  • 16x Piglin Brute spawner - 500 gold
  • Unbreakable elytra - 1250 gold
  • Op Totem of Undying - 1100 gold

  • Atlas Boss set - 750 gold
  • Hades Boss set - 750 gold
  • Blood Moon Boss set - 2500 gold


💾 New! Settings Saved Across Resets​

Your settings are now saved when the season resets. You no longer have to set everything again after a new season starts.​
​
This means your personal toggles stay the way you like them.​
​
⚙️ Your Settings​
Set your options once and keep them. This saves you time at the start of every new season.​


💰 New! Shard Balance In Chat​

You can now see a player's shard balance in chat. Hover over a player name in chat to see it.​
​
This makes it easier to check balances without extra commands.​
​
🖱️ Hover In Chat​
Just hold your mouse over a name in chat. The shard balance shows up right away.​


🛒 Updated! Shop​

The shop has been updated for this season. The items and the way you buy and sell have been looked at again.​
​
You should have a smoother time when you buy blocks and sell your items.​
​
🛒 Shop Changes​
The shop is one of the places you use the most, so it has been cleaned up for the new season.​


📊 Updated! Stats Display​

The /stats menu now shows rank colors and formatting. Names in /stats look the same as they do in chat.​
​
This makes the menu easier to read and easier to see who is who.​
​
🎨 Rank Colors​
Rank colors and formatting are now used in /stats.​


🪶 Updated! Elytra Renaming​

You can now rename your elytras. Give your elytra a name of your choice and keep it after you rename it.​
​
This was not possible before, so your elytra can now be personal.​
​
🪶 Rename Your Elytra​
Renaming works on elytras now, just like on other items.​


⚔️ Updated! Shop Blocked In Combat​

You can no longer use /shop while you are in combat. The shop only opens when you are out of combat.​
​
This stops players from restocking in the middle of a fight.​
​
⚔️ Combat Rules​
Finish or leave your fight first, then open the shop.​


⚙️ Fixed! Bugs​

Nothing is dropping as they have a low chance to appear and have limited stock so no nothing is "cooked chat"
 
Nothing is dropping as they have a low chance to appear and have limited stock so no nothing is "cooked chat"
we will see
i can already predict lvl skips in ah for "50gold"
ts just bad
players will be able to do levels more easily and get "seasonal crate keys " so more inflation of ranks and every item you can get from the crate.
200 gold is nothing when you can get ranks worth 8k+ gold people are gonna mass purchase these skips and use for levelling up

Suggestion: Bring Back the Original Vanilla Lifesteal Experience

With the upcoming Lifesteal reset, I really hope the staff team reconsiders adding custom biomes.

One of the main reasons many of us played Pika Lifesteal was because it offered a more vanilla Minecraft experience. We enjoyed the original world generation, familiar biomes, and classic Lifesteal gameplay without unnecessary custom features.

Custom biomes change the feel of the game, and honestly, many players in our community don't like this addition. We want the classic vanilla experience that made this gamemode enjoyable in the first place.

My suggestion is simple: keep Lifesteal vanilla, or give players the option to play a separate vanilla Lifesteal mode. Not every player wants extra custom features.

Please listen to the community before the reset. Don't change what made us love this gamemode.

Bring back Vanilla Lifesteal! ❤️
 
Excited for the rotational goldshop, scrolls and custom generation. 👀
