Global ​

• Citadel and Conquest Sub-Events (NEW): On Skyblock and Factions, new surprise sub-events now pop up in the middle of Citadel and Conquest:
  • Dragon Flyover: Something big is circling overhead, and it leaves gifts behind. Not all of them are friendly.
  • Blessing Cache: Hold it with your team and the whole team walks away stronger.
  • Supply Drop: Watch the sky, because the first one to the crate gets the loot.
  • Jackpot Zone (Conquest): One capture zone suddenly becomes worth a lot more points.
• Per-Piece Armor Draft: The Citadel and Conquest loadout drafts now let you pick your helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots separately instead of one full set, and you can change a pick when you go back to a category.
• Chest Shop Owner Hub (NEW): Sneak and click your chest shop sign, or look at your shop and type /shophub, to open the new Owner Hub: your stock, listings, and every setting for that shop in one place. It shows what you earned in the last 24 hours and 7 days, your customers and trades this week, and your last 36 sales, and it warns you when a listing would lose money if players traded it both ways. Type /shophub anywhere else to see a list of all your shops.
• Clear Out of Stock Listings: A new button removes every listing that has nothing left in stock from your shop in one click.
• Item Showcase (NEW): Plus members on Skyblock, Prison, and Survival can now show off their shop's items as a floating display on the chest, with a price tag above it showing the shop name, item, and prices. Pick where it sits (On Top, On the Lid, In Front, or either side), its motion (Still, Face Viewer, or Slow Spin), its size (Small, Medium, or Large), and its lighting, fine-tune its position and turn, show one pinned item or cycle through every listing, and save up to 7 presets.
• Booster Timers: Boosters now count down in real time, so every booster ends exactly when its timer says, even when the server is busy.

Runes ​

• Rune Overhaul: A huge rebuild of how runes work under the hood, so every rune now triggers more reliably and consistently on Skyblock, Factions, Prison, and Survival.
• Safer Rune Explosions: Rune blasts like Gift Wrap's presents, Random Junk, and Golden Idol now follow protection rules: they won't break blocks on islands, plots, or claims with explosions turned off, they follow Factions raid rules and the world border, and they can't hurt players you aren't allowed to hit.
• Smarter Ability Targeting: Abilities like Vampire Bite, Intoxicating Love, and Mummification now aim at the target your selector glows, and enemy players need to be in your line of sight (Sonar and Blood Hunt still reveal players behind walls). The first ability in a bind now fires the instant you press it.
• Retarget Stacked Abilities (NEW): A new toggle in your rune preferences lets stacked abilities pick a new target as each one fires, or stay locked on the target you pressed the hotkey with.
• Splash Hits: Your on-hit runes now also trigger on splash hits, like mcMMO's Serrated Strikes and Skull Splitter. Cleaving Edge's extra hits now make mobs bleed and no longer knock them back.
• Scattershot: Its extra arrows are their own shots and don't activate your bow's other runes, and the rune's description now says so.
• Lightning Prison: The cage now sits on the ground and hurts anything that crosses its wall.
• Shattering Regrowth: Pumpkins and melons it regrows pay out again when you harvest them.
• Clearer Rune Messages: Crate rune payouts now show the exact dollar amount with easy to read numbers, and Withering Plague shows your earnings in dollars and cents.
• Bedrock Summons: Bedrock players can now see invisible rune summons.
• Grave Grip: The enemy you grip now can't jump at all for the effect's duration (was weaker jumps), so your hold on them is stronger and smoother, and it no longer bounces them into the air.
• Blacksmith: The Blacksmith armor rune now works on Factions too: when you get hit, it has a chance to repair durability on all of your armor.
• Scrimshaw Bulk Buying: Right-click any offer in the Scrimshaw bone shop to choose an amount, with +1, +8, and Set Maximum buttons that show the total bone cost before you buy.
• Greedy Greens: When Monsoon, Granary, or Reap and Sow replant your crop for free, Greedy Greens now sells your whole harvest instead of holding a seed back for replanting.
• Rune Incinerator: XP from incinerating runes now pays back as a refund of the XP you spent on them, so the Experience Gained leaderboard stays a fair race of the XP you earn.
• Reaper's Scythe: Its blast of flames now harvests the crops on the same layer as the crop you broke, so it stays inside the farm row you're working and won't reach into the layers above or below you.

Dungeons ​

• Boss Door: The boss door now usually sits 4 or more rooms from spawn, so every run takes you deeper into the dungeon before the boss fight.
• Leaving a Run: You're only charged the quit tax once per run, you get it back if the server can't move you out, and if your party wipes you pay the fail tax instead of both.
• Seasonal Item Warning: The seasonal item coin tax warning now also shows when you start a solo run, so you always know your tax before you head in.
• Boss Head Rematch Timer: The boss bar now counts down the time left in a Boss Head rematch, and the timer turns red in the last 30 seconds so you know when to go all in.

PVE (Dojo, Tomb, Skull Etc.) ​

• Steadier Mob Spawns: Mobs in the Dojo, Pharaoh's Tomb, Skull Island, and the Darkzone and Lightzones now spawn closer to you and more steadily, so rejoining or hopping zones no longer changes how many mobs you get.
• Corrupted Hoe: Corrupted Hoes from the Darkzone now always come with the Greedy Greens rune at level 17 to 23, on every tier, for even better farming.
• Skull Island and Darkzone Gear Previews: Angelic gear on Skull Island and Corrupted and Angelic gear in the Darkzone now show in the loot preview as timed items, with their rune level range and how long they last.
• PvP Beacons: PvP Beacon range on Skull Island and in Pharaoh's Tomb now only counts how far across you are, so flying up or digging down keeps you in the PvP zone, and the scoreboard distance matches.
• Healer Mobs: Healer mobs no longer heal bosses near them, so every boss fight stays fair and your damage always counts.
• XP Boosters in PvE Zones: XP and Mob XP boosters now add their bonus on top of the base XP of every PvE zone kill instead of multiplying your whole rune and zone stack. This keeps PvE XP balanced and the Experience Gained leaderboard fair for everyone, and your boosters still give you extra XP on every kill.
• Pouch Previews: The Dojo and Pharaoh's Tomb loot previews now show pouch drops as a Random Pouch with its tier range and every pouch type it can be, instead of one sample pouch.

Skyblock ​

• Casual Lockout Warnings: You now get a chat and on-screen warning when your competitive island time starts counting toward the Pharaoh's Realm Casual Lockout, when you have 12, 4, and 1 hours left, and when the lockout starts, so it never catches you by surprise. If you're AFK, the warning waits until you're back. You can check your time anytime in /realm under Information.
• Unpin Skills: Shift-click a pinned skill in your Pharaoh's Realm skills menu to unpin it, and your scoreboard goes back to following the skill you last gathered.

Factions ​

• Spawners on the Auction House: You can now list spawners on the Factions auction house, so buying and selling them is easier than ever.
• Crop Sell Prices: Farming pays better for a healthier crop economy. Per 64: wheat 900 → 1,800, potatoes 500 → 1,000, carrots 720 → 1,440, melon slices 250 → 500, and pumpkins 700 → 960. Nether wart now sells for 25 each (was 90) to keep it in line with the other crops.

Bug Fixes and Misc Changes ​

Global ​

Coins you earn after the boss kill now count on the Dungeons Coins Earned leaderboard. The Scrimshaw bone shop now matches every copy of a drop, including lodestones and hidden treasures. Dungeon Void Stalkers no longer get mixed up with the Pharaoh's Tomb Void Stalker. Short network hiccups of up to 30 seconds no longer disconnect you from the server. Ace playing card rewards now show the full amount you got in chat. Here Be Treasure chest messages now show the full amount you found. Grave Grip and Monster Grab now work on mobs too, and skip bosses and armor stands. Bat Abduction now lets riders off when the bat dies or the abduction ends. Falling blocks from Dungeon bosses no longer stay behind as permanent blocks. Withered crops now count toward Island Milestones, leaderboards, and Rookie scoring. Timed shovels no longer roll Excavator, which only works on pickaxes. Clue scroll tasks no longer count pickaxes as axes. Items you pick up right before swapping or leaving now always land in your backpack. Golden Grub bait's bonus fish now still pays out when a rune replaces your catch. Undying now also saves you from a killing damage-over-time tick, like bleed. Quests whose progress jumps past their goal now complete properly. Rune pop-ups and other on-screen displays now show reliably on Lunar Client. If your Elytra is taken off automatically while your inventory is full, it now goes to your /collect storage instead of dropping. Duels now cancel the ready check cleanly when a player leaves before it starts. Custom armor now keeps its look when you put it on an armor stand. /joinevent is now blocked inside PvE zones, so you can't lose your Skull Island tokens that way. Red mushrooms now count as crops, so crop runes and crop sell bonuses work on them, including Corrupted red mushrooms. The Boss Merchant now shows boss spawn offers and item trades on separate rows, so extra offers never hide the boss spawn. Boss beacons now keep their countdown and spawn their boss after a server update, instead of getting stuck. Auction House prices with a typo, like 2k', are now rejected instead of listing your item for $2. Reviving a teammate in Dungeons now always brings them fully back into the fight. /lockitem now works while you're in combat and inside the Kill the King arena. Mobs no longer spawn naturally inside Factions raid camps.
