Islands is heading into it's 6th season, packed with a bunch of new features, as well as being updated to version 1.16.5
We are releasing a staff-only beta tonight, and will be doing an Elite beta this weekend (probably Friday).
Hoping to release June 24th, but won't confirm that until the Elite beta is out
THE SPAWN
We've set our sails and have found a new island to call Spawn
A part of spawn has been overrun by the Drowned
Slay these drowned to earn yourself Mana and valuable rewards.
Be careful though as this is also a PvP enabled area!
Drowned Loot Table
---------------------------
Common
Kelp
Prismarine Crystals
Sweet Berries
Uncommon
Gold Ingots
Golden Berries
Rare
Trident
Ancient Treasure Key
Ancient Guardian Boss Egg
---------------------------
Venture into the depths of the island to summon the Ancient Guardian Boss, for an intense but rewarding battle
No footage/screenshots yet of this, but it is a successor of the Elder Guardian Boss we had in Season 4
ISLANDS
The island system has been given an overhaul.
You can now own up to 3 islands profiles, and manage everything through a GUI
The ocean water is no longer toxic. We are exploring event-based ocean water damage, or "Hardcore mode" profiles.
Need community feedback about this.
New things you can change about your island:
➥ Ranks & Permissions
➥ Upgrades (Growth Rate, Spawn Rate, Hopper Limits, XP Rates, Loot Rates)
➥ Island Shared Bank
➥ Island Shared Vault
➥ Island Shared Quests
➥ Island Shared Collection Log
➥ Bans
➥ Logs
➥ Warps & Public Warps
(As well as public warps that cost money to use, easy passive income!)
LEADERBOARD
A virtual leaderboard can now be access from anywhere on the server! Type /leaderboard
RANKS AND PRESTIGES
A new never-ending /rankup & prestige system has been created,
with never-ending Cubit rewards!
Once you have completed all 10 rankup challenges, you can then prestige for 10,000 Mana
Prestiging will give you a reward of 5 Cubits. This amount increased for every prestige.
For example; Prestige 6 will give you 10 Cubits
After prestiging you will be set back to Rank 0, and have to complete all rankup challenges again.
The objectives for these challenges are increased based on your prestige level!
There is no limit to how many times you can rankup/prestige. Excited to see who will climb the highest!
MINION REWORK
➜ You can now get minions from Kilton's Soul Shop, and the in-game cubit Black Market.
➜ Give your minion a spawner and they will collect the drops of that mob type!
You can add up to 64 spawners to a minion, as well as an infinity chest to auto sell the loot.
➜ Each minion can hold 100,000 items
➜ Sell the items the minion is holding with the sell button. This will also show the total amount and $
➜ You can access all of your minions from anywhere on the server through the /minion GUI
➜ Minions will work regardless if you're nearby, and for up to 6 hours while offline!
➜ Minions need Sweet Berries to stay awake
Sweet Berries can be farmed on your island
➜ Give your minion Golden Berries to double it's work speed
You can get Golden Berries from The Drowned and Kilton
CUBIT & FURNITURE SHOP
You can now spend your cubits directly in-game without needing to cash out giftcards!
We are releasing a whole new set of furniture as well this week (To Olympus too!)
Including various new carpets, tables, chairs, decorations & lots more.
KILTON
Kilton is back with many new rewards to unlock. He has also received a graphical revamp - you can find him at Spawn
MANA POND
Last but not least the Mana Pond has arrived to Islands!
Catch items that jump out of the pond with your fishing rod. Events happen multiple times daily!
Have any suggestions or concerns? Post them below, we still have lots of time to change & add new things!
