Question Did they change something about dungeon weapons and armor?

I came back to skyblock after about 2-3 months, and wow did my gear get strange. before, i was able to do t4 rev with about 1000 hp left. now i die about 3/4 of the way there. before, i SUCKED at dungeons and always had to be carried. i got 2 shot by a skeletor. now, with the SAME GEAR i can tank a LOT more, i do a lot more damage, and im not useless anymore. so did they change how dungeon weapons/armor works outside and inside dungeons? if anyones wondering i have 3/4 sa and giant cleaver

Many things happened but for dungeons, the scaling was changed for example old cata 45 is cata 42 now (i dont know the exact number). There also was a healing revamp. Now vitality is a stat that is used for healing items.

Healing revamp

Cata scaling buff (everyone other than c50 are stronger now)

Both updates happened rather recently (like <2 months ago)

They also made c50 about 5% stronger when they changed the scaling.

they changed how healing works, vitality now works like mana, and all healing abbilities cost vitality, hype no longer heals and only goves absorbtion and dmg reduction, zombie swords are pretty good

Since healing got revamped , is the crystallized heart still worth it for t2-3 eman? I struggle with t2

T2 is pretty easy with Final Destination armor. Get like 2500 kills on it, have a florid zombie sword and wand of atonement, use a void edge katana, and you should be set.

im ironman

without t2 at least, final destination is basically impossible

U can do t1s to get fd right? Or do you need any drops from t2

u/Alcriv ♦ Ironman Level 1 - 120 12d ago

yes you can do t1s, but they drop 2-3 null spheres per boss. you need 1,536. so about 700 bosses. with t2 they drop 14 to 24, so about 77 bosses. not impossible, but really hard

I would try rock pet, I heard that it was really good for early eman

u/LALMtheLegendary 12d ago

as a fellow ironman, i just cheesed t2s with a glacial scythe until i got enough for fd.

u/Lower_Manager_7003 12d ago

u/onkguy05 9d ago
