Skyblock Specific Rules​

• You may only be able to compete for 1 PVP TOP island until your cooldown to switch islands is up, or a new PVP TOP month(cycle) starts.
• You may not leave your main PVP TOP to PVP for a solo island while your main island teams and protects you. This is bypassing only pvping for one island and allowing you to claim multiple spots on the PVP TOP leaderboard.
• You may team up with other islands as long as there are legit teams, and not alt islands. This is up to staff discretion.
• You may only compete for 1 IS TOP island. If you would like to change the island you are competing on for the month, you must leave any other IS TOP islands.

  • Spawner Efficiency
• Using your Alt to redeem one-time rewards
• Using your Alt to redeem daily or recurring rewards, including Vote Keys or Daily Rewards, Prestige Rewards (Prison Only).
• Using your Alt to automatically perform commands that aren't related to teleportation.
