Suggestion:

Strenght IV & Speed IV​

Detailed description:

Back in the day, we had access to Strength IV and Speed IV buffs through /is upgrades, purchasable using IS shards. These upgrades made grinding, PvP, and overall island progression much more enjoyable and engaging. Unfortunately, these buffs have been removed in recent updates, and their absence has definitely been felt by many players.


Right now, getting Speed is frustrating:

• You can only get Speed I or II from E-Witches,
• A few special armor sets offer permanent Speed II, but they’re hard to obtain and not accessible to most players unless they invest a lot of time or money.

Reason(s):

This has made movement and combat feel slower and more restrictive, especially for newer or mid-tier players. The game feels less dynamic, and the grind less rewarding without these meaningful boosts.

Reason(s):

• Reintroduces meaningful island progression that rewards long-term effort.
• Adds depth and variety to gameplay, especially for players who focus on PvP and grinding.
• Reduces reliance on RNG (like E-Witches) and rare armor sets for basic movement boosts.
• Makes gameplay more accessible to casual players who can't constantly grind or pay to win.
• Encourages shard collection and use, giving IS shards more value and purpose.
• Restores a feature many veteran players enjoyed, helping retain old players and improve community satisfaction.

Example(s):

• When Strength IV and Speed IV buffs were available through /is upgrades, players experienced much faster and more enjoyable gameplay. Farming mobs, exploring, and island PvP were significantly more dynamic and engaging.
• These upgrades provided a clear and rewarding progression path, motivating players to collect and spend IS shards strategically.
• The presence of these buffs meant that success relied more on player skill and planning rather than just rare gear or chance drops.
• Without these buffs, combat and movement feel noticeably slower and less exciting, especially since only a few special armor sets grant permanent Speed II—and those are difficult for most players to obtain.
• Temporary Speed boosts from E-Witches are inconsistent and don’t offer the same level of reliability or motivation that permanent island upgrades once did.

-1 *Speed 4 and Strength 4 (-infinite aura) ??? We're minecraft players NOT Superheros *

-1 Well let's be clear it wasn't any strenght 4 before it was strength 3 u could also give a try to write a suggestion by Ur self and don't use any Ai.
I haven't seen u playing PvP in OpSkyblock so why u making a suggestion about strength/speed

-1 I am not playing with Strength 4 to get 1 shot, or speed 4 to have them run the whole map, I don't need speedsters in pvp

-1 , speed 4 and strength 4 is too much if you think about it.
Having speed 3 and str 2 instead of the suggested ones would be better

sp2 and str2 pots, maybe speed 3 with enchants but i think thats too much aswell, are enough, we dont want this next season to be like new opp pvp, getting quicked in 3-4 hits and ppl running around with speed 5 pickaxes.

-1. No need for speed 4 speed 3 was alr too much to handle and speed 2 is pretty good alr and is widely available . Just say you lazy asf and want to mooch off of island buffs.
