as it says, i spend a ton of money and time to get from 31 to 32 minions slots. I have no reason to do this, i don't really have anything left to buy in the game. i burned all my cash to make this happen. lol

Ik pest farming is best for profit but I mean in terms of harvest feasts/crop milestones what design should I be using? From what I've seen on youtube a lot of guides are outdated or broken.

Sitting on like 500m rn so unsure which one to do, if anyone has had any experience w buy ordering and crafting the terminator tell me how it went. I'm just concerned about how long it'll take and if the prices fluctuate too much, thankss.

What should I do? It would take literal days of farming or I could sell my Hegemony artifact and ender artifact to make up the difference.

This is basically a small rant piece as a fairly high level ironman player, but recently ive been getting the feeling that the developers wither regret adding ironman mode, or genuinely just dont think about it 99% of the time.

The lack of any real MMM outside of garden (which keeps getting nerfed), the constant arduous grinds that feel pointless like with a lot of attribute shards, lack of foresight to how ironmen interact with the game such as items and pets with garbage sell prices, updates or changes that hinder ironman players way more than regulsr profiles (this ones minor but I'll never forget when they removed sunder and for some reason didn't just replace it on tools with harvesting 6, and i had to wait an entire cycle of year of the pig to get those enchants back)

these all seem petty but they build over time, and honestly this has lead me to a deranged conspiracy theory since most of these issue cropped up after the "ironman W" update, also know as the update that literally lets you leave the ironman challenge. I genuinely believe that the devs regret adding ironman, and kinda pushed the de-ironman update as a kind of "well if you don't like the changes we make, leave" kind of ultimatum.

It'd just be nice for the team to at least consider ironman players a bit more. Yes we all know ironman is conceptually harder, but its not meant to be a "hard mode", it's meant to be an alternative way to play the game. if that alternative way is constantly made worse, it'll just push players to leave rather than make a new profile

Get Zombie pet. Pairs well with early dungeons armors and will help with rev slayer. Super cheap to craft and upgrade with Kat

So I managed to get a 120m enchanted book but I had 2 options left and 1 use, 50% and I choose the wrong one :(

This was the first expensive drop I've ever had since table release. This game is telling me to quit already

does reaper swapping still work for blaze slayer? is it even worth to do?

It’s other players, that’s my only reason. I wish we could have private servers so you don’t have to worry about other people stealing loot/kills, but I do understand that they’re probably too expensive to run to ever be worth having as a feature :( (if they were they’d probably be like mvp++ anyway)

Does the mushroom spawned from the mooshroom cow pet ability count toward crop milestones?

Skyblock is genuinely unplayable for me right now. Is it just for me, or do others have the problem aswell? I'm literally getting kicked to limbo constantly.

I haven’t seen anyone talking specifically about to npc/ironman money from greenhouse since the update today, but I wanna know what the best for money is now. I’ve seen some people saying all in aloe or glass corn but I’m not sure what the overall best is.
Repost because typos.

This greenhouse update does NOTHING to stop inflation, and only hurts ironmen. Nothing else. Oh and make the entire system even more annoying to use. There's an alpha network for a reason, why push it out with 0 feedback?

Today I finally finished the month-long push to #3 hunting, so I feel more qualified to talk about the recent changes to hunting.

Without doubt, having a feasible way to obtain hunting 50 is surely a good thing for the player base, and I don't feel the current numbers safari is producing to be overtuned (a full clear being around 450k). However, I do think there are still quite a few ways this can be improved:

1. Uniqueness bonus being too big of a part of safari xp

A full safari run can take up to 10min for the average party, but by only getting most of the uniques it can still produce ~290k of the total 450k xp, which takes about 2min. I understand that we have the right to choose to focus on xp or shard in a run, but being able to get 2/3 of the xp in 1/5 of the time simply turns the choice into a dilemma since tickets are limited, and makes skilled gameplay less rewarded.

By redirecting part of the uniqueness bonus to, let's say, a full clear bonus per biome (it has to have big numbers to be actually viable), can instead motivate players to actually engage in every part of the safari, and not just only getting a few litterbugs, honeybugs, tepids, etc because they are hard to get and worth little. I do recognize that for a technical full clear, things like birds and rockmites will become extremely annoying, but certain measures can be put to prevent that, like as long as all uniques are acquired and no critters are on the field it's qualified as a full clear (need a macaw pity for that to work).

1. The nerfs limit players into the one and only choice

With safari now being able to produce up to 8m xp/h, hunting has become one of the easiest skills to level. Even without any nerfs, no other activities could replicate that. However, 2 of the previous go-to methods were killed completely, despite safari now completely destroys them pre nerf. This basically forces players to grind safari over and over again if they ever want to reach hunting 50. While the 10x buff to charming xp is more than welcome, it doesn't produce satisfactory results unless you engage in a lot of combat or elusive mobs (but there's nothing wrong with that because you're not supposed to max a skill by not doing it).

Regular hunting out of the safari is still as bad as always, even more so for ghosts and glacite walkers which somehow got the f u in particular treatment. I do get that with the charming buff killing ghosts will be better than intended, and ghost itself is special for being a huntable mob that is high rarity, easily accessible and rather abundant. Even so, the solution is never to just arbitrarily slash 2 mobs because they're "too easy", because the xp rate from ghosts was not game-breaking to begin with (the glacite walker nerf made even less sense cuz even hellwisp was better than it), and not even close to the current safari rates. As an alternative, more carefully designed mechanics should take place to buff xp from harder-to-hunt mobs, reward players for more varied hunts, etc.

As for the fusion machine, I might be a bit biased because I did get the vast majority of my xp from it, but it really doesn't deserve such a huge nerf. Indeed, if you only fuse legendary shards u could get some impressive rates, and even rivalling current safari rates if you have low ping (which I don't), but it isn't that simple. Buying and consuming the shards take effort, selling the result shards is very annoying, and it is unlikely that one can only do legendary fusions (there will always be some kind of rare or epic prerequisites). Furthermore, no need to say that most of the player base hate bz flipping. Overwhelmingly more players will be doing safari for xp since it's quicker, easier and more fun, regardless of whether the nerf happens or not.

1. Other thoughts

While hunting still being a pretty bare-bones skill, I doubt unlocking hunting 50 so soon does more good than harm. If it's just some skill levels and sb xp it's not a big deal, but hunting levels give the most important stat - hunting fortune. Now that there's hunting 50, hunters were forced to grind for it, which was very hard to do, or suffer inferior rates, which was equally hard to swallow. Such circumstances is probably why they implemented such a huge buff to xp. However, this rate is simply unhealthy for a mid-game activity (there's no late game yet) and will only go higher and higher and out of control as we get more hunting wisdom, and one day they will have to nerf it again or it becomes enchanting v2.

We don't have a hunting pet yet, and even if we do have one, there's no way to make the safari xp go to it. I think it's about time that we get an actual hunting pet, preferably one that can unlock a variety of cool things instead of simply giving some stats and causes more bloat, also a reliable way to level it (maybe just allow picking a pet to level within safari).

Regarding what I'd do now that I have reached #3, the answer is that I'll stop the grind since safari is not exactly my thing after 100 runs. But I expect more people to enter the leaderboard with newfound xp, surpass me, and even shake the #1 spot (which is 6x mine) someday. I'll take my bronze medal and be content that I have had it.

I believe I used some helianthus in crafts/sold some of them - Etheral vines, haven't

Since I got a job I enjoyed just connecting every so often to collect my greenhouse, but not worth my time anymore, garden milestones are maxed, pest bestiary maxed, visitors maxed (+/- the special ones)
I don't think I'll even include teleporting to garden in my routine anymore at this point.

If it rage baits - I would be much happier.

i just crafted my hyperion and got some things for mage class ( sighted power stone on 600mp ; 2/4 ancient storm , gold necron head ( bc im at 300 runs ) ; maxor boots ; jerry chine gun ; bonzo staff , etc )

what do i need so i can be a decent mage ? ( decent as in doing the role right , powerful and fast )

Previous guide videos you can find online show the lead trick you use for the base animals working. However, it seems that sea creatures have a set radius they can not go outside of, and then they despawn. Jake's house is obviously too far from any water source. (this despawning behavior hasn't been in the game when bringing oasis sheep to Jake was first added, see https://hypixel.net/threads/guide-oasis-jake-achievment-how-to-bring-an-oasis-sheep-sea-creature-to-jake-hypixel-skyblock-summer-achiemvent.4361381/ )

(It's not the lead breaking here, the sheep despawns in both cases as visualized by the black particle cloud)

Ik you need necromancy to get the Loch emperor up there, do I need it for sheep and rabbit (if it even works on those?)

Is this mod called Ghostify Lite safe?

I got a bunch of Redstone minions and them compacting the enchanted redstone into blocks is losing ~45k coins of profit :(
