Global Updates - February 5th, 2025

• Removed /workbench from 'default' users. (Still added for all ranks, Skyknight/Premium +)
  
  I'm not sure why default had this command added (likely during the 1.19.2 update) as it was always for the lowest tiered rank. I do think the experience for new players should be without this, as it skips an important process when first starting out on Skyblock.
  
• Added /stonecutter to Skylord/Elite users. (As with Skygod/Highroller & Skytitan)
  
  This command allows access to a portable stonecutter.
  
  Thank you to the suggestion from Butter_: Global - Add a command for stonecutter, like how it exists for crafting tables | Skyblock Official Site

Hello everyone,

I am creating this post to discuss the Mob Arena for a final time before its release.

We're nearing completion of our beloved minigame and hope to release it in the upcoming weeks. While there is no launch date just yet, it is something that we are prioritizing and we will try our best to release it as soon as possible. We will strive for the end of February, but in a worst case scenario, it could be pushed into March or early April at the very latest.

Currently, we are working on setting up the rewards system for Mob Arena. As the minigame will be hosted on its own separate server, you will not be able to earn rewards such as random blocks and items that was previously obtained. Instead you will earn "Skyblock Gems", our new minigames currency, in which you can use to redeem and spend on Skyblock Survival and Economy. This rewards system will also one day implement with SkyWars as well.

If you have ideas on what type of items, cosmetics, pets, or trails we...

Today (February 4th), celebrates the 7 year anniversary of Skyblock Survival.

This day back in 2018 marked our transition from Skyblock Classic to the current Skyblock server!

Just wanted to make this quick post to ensure that the release date does not become forgotten, normally we do gifts and celebrations around the anniversary of Skyblock itself, which is September 4th, but perhaps we can do something small such as double vote rewards over the weekend.

I was wondering why this date felt very familiar, apologies on the post being almost a day late.

Thanks everyone!

• Increased duration of auctions within the SkyAuction (/ah) from 3 days to 7 days.
  
• A tax of 1% has been added to all items sold within the SkyAuction. This was originally set to 5% but I decreased it to 1% due to recent comments. I would agree that the rate of 5% is a bit high on some items that are sold, but I think a rate of 1-2% is fair and any type of "money sink" on an Economy server or any game for that matter is always beneficial to the overall economy in the long-term. If you prefer to skip the tax, selling directly to players is always encouraged.
  
• Mob stacks have been increased from a maximum of 99k mobs to around 2.1b (max integer). I have noticed herds of mobs on some islands that are maxed out at 99k and will no longer stack, ultimately leading to areas with large amounts of mobs, which mob stacking aims to prevent. I do see the issue with some players needing multiple mob stacks in some areas for farming however, I...
