It is time again for a new season of OpSkyBlock filled with new features & improvements that will make OpSkyBlock even more fun to play on.
We are always looking forward to bring the community their ideas to life and to add more unique features to make OpSkyBlock worth to grind for.
This season we will be introducing a brand new feature, Bosses!
On top of that we will be adjusting some existing features and adding some new ones that you can explore.
Below you can find most of the changes we have made and what has been added, I’m sure I forgot to mention it all but I’m sure giving it a good read over you will be familiar with most you're going to see. If there is however still something you want to change, feel free to mention it on this thread before its release, we can still consider making the change.
Are you ready to hop into a new season?! Say no more. The update will be released this Friday, July 29th, 2022.

End of the world
To celebrate the end of the season, we will be hosting an end-of-season event.

New! Spawn
A new season means a brand new spawn. Is the luck in your favor this season? Will you find the treasure at the end of the rainbow in our brand new fantasy spawn?
A new spawn with an fantasy theme.
The spawn contains an outpost again.
Looking for some help? There are plenty of NPCs explaining all the features. 
A new seasonal crate has been added again.
New! Mine BossesIt is time to give the mines more of a reason to hop into and grind for. This season we will be introducing Mine Bosses.
Upon spawning a broadcast will be sent to all players that a boss has been spawned within the Mines World so you have to go in well prepared, as a lot of players will be fighting for this insane loot from these bosses. But only the top 5 players will be able to claim their well-deserved Boss Loot Bag. These bags contain crazy loot, from Runes to special sets and much more.
As a player you will also be able to obtain boss eggs, which will make you spawn a boss for yourself, however, this will still be announced to every online player.
As there are 8 mines, there will also be 8 bosses. Those 8 bosses are the following:
Wild West Den  Taurus ❤ 7,500 | Hollow Snow Cave  Ice Dragon ❤ 9,000 | Sandy Subterrane  Goblin ❤ 9,500 | Swamp Cavity  Sea Monster ❤ 10,000 |

New! Wandering TradersAfter a long day of grinding your items in OpSkyBlock most players go back to their island and check what they have gathered that day.
Upon checking you noticed that you have a little too many boss drops now, they look cool what else should you do with them?
This season each mine within the Mine World will have a new companion, the Wandering Trader. This trader wants to trade in those valuable items for a great price. However, you only have a few limited trades each day, so choose wisely what you want to give out.
These traders have some great rewards such as runes, level skip coins, re-roll tokens, and much more!
New! Events
Introducing a new way to play, events! You all know the previous Milestone feature, but we decided to step up, even more, introducing the Events!
Each event will automatically start throughout the day, and each event will have its own time you have in order to set the best time possible. These new events will be the perfect replacement for milestones.
How to participate?
Participating happens automatically, each event has its own task to do, which requires you to grind that task, and the progress will automatically be stored for you. All you have to do is start your timer using the /events command.
Events are only available within the Island World, so you will need to be there in order to start & grind for it.
How do we win?
Each event requires reaching a limit of some task, these tasks are different for each event. The player who reaches the goal the fastest will win. Your timer will start counting as soon as you wish it to start. This makes the event fair for everyone, even the players who stepped in later in the event.
The Top 10 players with the fastest time for each event will earn a reward.
What do we win?
Besides being famous for being the #1 event player on the leaderboard you will be showered with rewards. These can differ from crate keys, to fuel boxes and much more!
Updated! Runes
We fixed some issues with runes and did some rebalancing for them as well. We heard the community feedback of Runes being too easy to be obtained and that it has made creating god sets too easy, so for this season we tweaked the pricing for the different tiers.
The new tier prices now as followed:
Common - 3,500 Experience
Epic - 7,500 Experience
Unique - 35,000 Experience
Crazy - 150,000 Experience
Godly - 250,000 Exeprience
Vanilla - 5,000 Experience
We also renamed the Enchantment Orb to the Runes Orb, as that makes more sense. This orb will now also work properly and you are able to add extra Runes per orb.
For the builders at OpSkyBlock we will be adding a new rune called Glass Breaker. This rune will instantly break Glass Blocks for you and drop them as a the block you broke. So you will no need to repurchase all that glass again.
That's not all, to make things even more convenient we decided to make it possible for you to use Rune Dust in stacks, rather than having to apply them one by one. If you have dust stacked with the same type and percentage it will now work as a whole stack.
Updated! Scrolls
Scrolls are a fun and unique way of showing some statistic on your item so for this season we decided to introduce some more. We will be adding the following scrolls to OpSkyBlock:
Crop Counter Scroll - Will count the amount of crops & custom crops harvested, can be applied on a hoe. Boss Counter Scroll - Will count the amount of bosses you have killed in the Mine World, can be applied on a sword and an axe.
Ore Counter Scroll - Will count the amount of ores mined in the Mine World, can be applied on a pickaxe.
These scrolls can be obtained in-game from the transfer shop and the wandering traders.
Updated! Pets
Pets are a fun little companion that you can obtain through crates. We want to make pets more accessible for everyone so we will be finally properly introducing the Zoo Keeper. The Zoo Keeper will be here every Saturday at 4PM server time to sell some Pet Eggs, these eggs come in limited stock and only 3 different types can be purchased.
You will need to save up some boss drops, experience, money, souls, mob coins and Mine World materials in order to be able to afford these pet eggs.
A new item has been added to the Boss Lootbags as well, a Rare Candy. You can feed this Candy to your pet in order to upgrade it's tier!
Next to these changes we will also be introducing 2 new extra pets that you can obtain in-game. One will help you out within the Mine World, and the other will help you with grinding your general needs for OpSkyBlock, the two new pets are:
 Bee Pet |  Dog Pet |
|---|---|
Common Ability: Receive less damage from bosses in the Mine World. Rare Ability: A chance to increase the drops from the Mine World ores. Legendary Ability: Deal more damage to bosses in the Mine World. | Common Ability: Increase the damage you deal towards mobs. Rare Ability: Increase the amount of experience you earn. Legendary Ability: Chance to increase the amount of drops from mobs. |
Fixed! Bugs
We did our best to polish and fix as many existing bugs inside the OpSkyBlock server. We have looked through all the bug reports and managed to fix them. If you come across any bug with the new release, make sure to report them at our forums under the bug reports section.
Here are a few of the bugs we squished out:

Question and AnswersWhy does OpSkyBlock reset?
OpSkyBlock is already up for some time. A reset has to happen to change and improve with new features, to make the game more exciting for you all! This then allows you players to have a fresh start and new players can begin to play without any significant disadvantage.
This means all items, money, and the map will be reset. Nothing will be kept leftover from the previous map. I know this must be a disappointing revelation for a lot of you, but think about the exciting new changes, the new alliances you can forge, the new map, the new features and updates the different kinds of gameplay, and style is provided with this update will surely make it a worth-while and exciting reset!
