Playtime rewards - Due to some not receiving awards due to having a full inventory, heads will no longer be given through playtime rewards. Instead, rewards will come in the form of achievement keys, vote points, claim blocks and cold hard cash. 

 

Daily playtime rewards will earn a player $1,000 for every hour online, increasing each hour. (1 hour nets $1,000 reward - 2 hours will net $2,000 - 3 hours will net $3,000 - and so on)

 

Daily login rewards will award additional votepoints for each day logged in, increasing each day.  (Day 1 gets you 1 extra vote point, Day 2 will get you 2, Day 3 will get you 3 and so on)

 

Global playtime rewards will net an achievement key and 1000 claim blocks every 6 hours of cumulative gametime.

 

Mob heads - To help balance the lack of head rewards, the chances of mob drop has increased. Certain weapons will increase the drop rate even more. The following methods are ranked from highest chance of a head drop to the lowest. The multipliers are listed with the item. Any item not listed will have a base 1x multiplier.

 

AIR: 3

SHEARS: 3

GOLDEN_AXE: 3

NETHERITE_AXE: 2.6

DIAMOND_AXE: 2.5

IRON_AXE: 2.4

STONE_AXE: 2.3

WOODEN_AXE: 2.2

DIAMOND_SWORD: 2.2

IRON_SWORD: 2.1

 

Daily Quest NPCs  -  You may have noticed some more NPCs around spawn. These will offer repeatable daily quests. Some (like the gourd prince) will be seasonal. These will have an icon hovering above their head when the quest can be redone (24 hour timer). More will be popping up over time.

 

In the works - We've added a new forum, "In the works" to show what we are working on, so we can get your input. These exist apart from the player suggestions, but we want your input!  This forum also serves as a "heads up" on what is to come.

 

Less pings - I want to thank everyone that has submitted anonymous feedback (⁠announcements⁠), letting us know how we can improve. Among some of the feedback was a mention of the amount of announcement pings. We will strive to do a weekly update announcement instead of an "as it comes" approach. This may not ALWAYS be possible, depending on the circumstance, but, we hear you!

 

Maparts - I apologize it has taken so long to address this issue. Each time someone is tasked with replacement, it seems a real-life situation comes up. We haven't forgotten about these. Rest assured it is still on our list!
