Update

Halloween, the Hollow Harvest and the Sculk Dragon

·74 changes·Nicoleuleetandkeova

Halloween is here. Hallow Hank has 16 quests that reset every week, and finishing them earns you Event Coins. You can spend those at the Event Shop on the new Revenant armor and tools, two new pets and the Harvest Scarecrow. The Hollow Harvester wakes up every four hours on his own island, and you can now summon the Sculk Dragon in the End. The Pixelwave Spear and Bow are finally out, the Penguin has joined the Ordea+ pets, and Vøkäi has a new look. Watch out when you open loot chests, because some of them are mimics now. Daily rewards are also starting over on a new calendar, and you can catch up on days you missed over the weekend. The server is also on Minecraft 26.3 now.

Harvest Scarecrow
  • Hallow Hank is at spawn with 16 Halloween quests. They pay money, Event Coins and extras like Event Keys, shards and Harrowmoor Meals
  • You can turn in each quest once a week. They open back up every Saturday at 7 PM Central, and your progress keeps counting while you wait
  • Event Coins are the new event currency. Check how many you have with /currency
  • Spend them with Hank's Mimic at the Event Shop on Revenant armor and tool kits, the Ghost and Gosphy pets, the Harvest Scarecrow, Event Keys, trial keys, shulker boxes, enchanted golden apples, Halloween fireworks and Harrowmoor Meals
  • Every Event Shop trade has its own weekly or daily limit, and the armor kits, pets and scarecrow also cost a Mysterious Coin
  • The Revenant set comes with armor, a sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe, spear and bow. Combine a kit with your gear at an anvil, or on Bedrock hold the kit, use it and pick your gear
  • Wear the full Revenant set and smoke trails off you, with a ring of it bursting out every few seconds
  • Place a Harvest Scarecrow on your farm and crops within 48 blocks grow faster. Break it like an armor stand to pick it back up
  • Some unopened loot chests out in the world are mimics this Halloween. Open one and it hops out and bites. Kill it and it drops the loot the chest was holding plus the chest itself, or walk away and it turns back into the chest
  • The Harrowmoor Meal gives you Speed and Haste for 30 minutes, plus 10% more experience while it lasts. You can eat it even when you're not hungry
  • Spawn is decorated for Halloween

The Hollow Harvest

Hollow Harvester
  • The Hollow Harvester, a giant scarecrow, now rises on his own floating wheat-field island. Use /warp Harvest to get there
  • He wakes up every four hours. Everyone gets a warning a minute before, and the field stays open for 15 minutes so late players can still join
  • He summons pumpkin zombies to fight with him, more for each player in the fight, up to 50 at a time
  • He gets tougher the more players are fighting him, and he hits harder too. Stay inside the ring of jack o'lanterns, because outside it his hits do a lot more damage
  • If the player he's after leaves the island, he goes for the next one
  • Your pet is put away while he's awake and comes back when the fight ends or you leave the island
  • If you get knocked out you go back to the landing deck. Nobody dies or loses items in this fight
  • Fall off the island or fly too far away and you're sent back to the landing deck
  • When he goes down, everyone who fought gets a share of the Llama Piñata's loot, and the top three damage dealers get more
  • Anyone who hits him at all gets a share. If you've logged off by the time he goes down, you get it the next time you join
  • Explore the island between fights. There's a ruined witch's cottage, a pond, a graveyard, scarecrows and small floating islands around it
  • The only mobs that spawn on the island are his pumpkin zombies

The Sculk Dragon

Sculk Dragon
  • New boss: the Sculk Dragon, an ender dragon overgrown with sculk
  • To summon it, place a sculk shrieker near the End's exit portal and put a dragon egg on top. Both get used up, and you and any party or guild members in the End are pulled into the Sculk End, a copy of the island just for your group
  • You have 15 minutes to kill it, and you can't leave until it dies or time runs out. If you die, you respawn back in the fight
  • It flies around the island like the ender dragon. It dives at you, shoots balls of sculk that grow new shriekers where they land, fires the warden's sonic boom and lands to breathe sculk at you. Later in the fight it slams down with a shockwave you have to jump over
  • If you set off a shrieker, it comes straight for you
  • Sculk shriekers are scattered across the Sculk End, in different spots every fight
  • Beating it gives a lot of experience, and the island is yours for 3 minutes before you're sent back

Boss Alerts

  • /pinataalerts is now /bossalerts. Turn it on and you get a Discord ping 5 minutes before the Llama Piñata drops or the Hollow Harvester wakes up
  • Boss alerts have their own Discord channel, #boss-notifications, where each boss posts its own card
  • When someone summons the Sculk Dragon, the channel shows who's fighting it, and again when it falls

Pixelwave

Pixelwave Helmet
Pixelwave Chestplate
Pixelwave Leggings
Pixelwave Boots
Pixelwave Sword
Pixelwave Pickaxe
Pixelwave Axe
Pixelwave Shovel
Pixelwave Hoe
Pixelwave Spear
Pixelwave Bow
  • Pixelwave armor now has its own look when you wear it
  • The Pixelwave Spear and Bow skins are out. Combine the kits you've been saving with your gear at an anvil
  • On Bedrock, hold the kit in your hand and use it. A menu opens with your matching gear so you can pick what to re-skin
  • Armor trims on Pixelwave armor are hidden so they don't cover the design, but the trim is still on the item

Crates

Halloween Event Crate
Revenant Tools
Revenant Armor
Harvest Scarecrow
Harrowmoor Meal
Event Coins
Confetti Shards
Ultimate Key
Spawner Key
Reinforced Elytra
  • The Halloween Event Crate at spawn opens with Event Keys. Inside are the Revenant skins, the Harvest Scarecrow, Harrowmoor Meals, Event Coins, heavy cores, skeleton horse eggs, netherite and a small chance at an Ultimate or Spawner Key
  • The Fishing Event Crate has been archived
  • The Key Shop at spawn sells Event Keys again for $3,000
  • The Reinforced Elytra has its own design now

Pets

Penguin
Ghost
Gosphy
  • New Ordea+ pet: the Penguin. It waddles after you, belly-slides to keep up, swims, and flaps when you click it (/pet penguin)
  • Two new pets from Hank's Mimic at the Event Shop: the Ghost and Gosphy, a ghost in a wizard's robe and hat. Each costs 48 Event Coins and a Mysterious Coin, and once you buy one it stays in /pet for good, with or without Ordea+
  • Turn on Baby Pet in /pet to get the baby version of any pet, like a fluffy grey penguin chick, a little ghost or a little Gosphy

Exchange Market

  • /sell now opens the Exchange Market from anywhere. This is a new Ordea+ perk

Daily Rewards

  • Daily rewards have a new 31-day calendar that everyone shares. Day 1 was October 15th, and each new day starts at 7 PM Central
  • Everyone starts over at day 1. The first time you log in after each 7 PM reset you collect your next day, and missing a day doesn't cost you anything
  • If you're behind, you can catch up from Friday 7 PM to Monday 7 PM Central. Play for an hour in each of those days and you get an extra day. /dailyrewards shows how close you are
  • The new rewards include Event Coins, Event Keys, Sculk Ascendant Shards, Mysterious Coins, diamonds, netherite, Ultimate Keys and a Spawner Key on day 31

Vøkäi

Vøkäi
  • Vøkäi, the night market vendor, has a new look

Guilds

  • /guild home now takes you to your guild home, same as /ghome
  • Guild+ guilds can put items into Guild Storage with /gstorage from their own claim, their town or anywhere at spawn
  • The Guild Storage keeper is now Ingrid Mercer, who you can find at /warp hall

Claims

  • New claim setting, Allow Chorus Fruit, which is off by default. While it's off, players you haven't trusted can't eat chorus fruit in your claim or use it to teleport in
  • Players you haven't trusted can't use jukeboxes, crafters, flower pots, composters, cauldrons, beehives, berry bushes, cake, candles, note blocks, respawn anchors or pale oak buttons in your claim anymore

Art

  • The easel, paint brush, palette and paint bucket have their own look now

Minigames

  • You can't teleport out of a duel or minigame anymore. Leave through the game instead
  • Duel and minigame arenas don't count toward map exploration anymore

Server

  • The server is on Minecraft 26.3 now. You can still join from any version back to 1.13, or from Bedrock
  • When the server starts to lag, it now finds what's causing it and eases it at that spot
  • If a chunk with more than 150 mobs is causing lag, the extra mobs stand still until the chunk is back under 150
  • Hoppers and spawners in the laggy spot pause until the lag passes, and if you're loading lots of new chunks at the time, your view distance drops to 6 until the server recovers

Fixes

  • /texture brings the pack prompt back if you declined it
  • The locator bar only shows your party members again
  • Fixed players near a lightning join effect getting the lightning advancement
  • Without the texture pack, custom armor, tools and items now show up as their normal versions, both on other players and in your own inventory
  • Fixed sometimes getting pulled back right after teleporting or logging in
  • Pet cats don't sit on chests anymore, and a cat that's already sitting on one won't stop it from opening
  • Pet allays don't take items from you anymore
  • Fixed the Auto Collector claim setting not switching on or off
  • Fixed your arm turning black in first person while wearing a trimmed chestplate
  • Party members show up green in the tab list again
  • Crate previews show the real odds of the rarest rewards instead of 0.00%
  • Bedrock players who vote without the dot in their name get their vote keys on the right account now
