Welcome to this week’s Hypixel Skyblock news! This week saw some sneak peaks into future updates for Hypixel Skyblock. This edition of This Week in Hypixel Skyblock covers important events that happened from January 22 – January 29!
Events That Occurred This Week
Friends API Endpoints Removal (January 23)
Essentially what happened, many people especially youtubers, streamers, and other known players were getting queue sniped in game modes such as Bedwars through the use of the friends API endpoints, so the admins decided to remove it. The community is unhappy about this change. You can view the public post by the admins here.
Hub Changes (January 24)
The admins revamped the main hub, this brings the hub a new look! They are definitely preparing for a new update. They added clay to the edges in the wilderness, changed the dark auction house and the wizard towers looks! Along with those they also changed the fishing pond. Be sure to go check those areas out!
Although the change is nice, there seems to be a couple bugs like this house here is missing a wall.
Garden Leaks (January 26)
The alpha network is open again with some more leaks of the garden updates. First things first, when you enter the hub you encounter a new NPC, Centauri. The NPC shows you 3 things:
- Featured Items
The featured items shows items used in the new updates. You can buy them directly from Centauri, in my opinion that’s pretty cool.
- Coin Generator
This is only useful on the alpha network as it allows you to generate coins. It would be pretty funny if it was added onto the main server, but admins wouldn’t do that since it was cause obvious problems.
- Toy Box
The toy box essentially allows you to max any items, and have infinite booster cookies and god pots, thus leading to a easier and more fun time on the alpha network. Some items it cannot be used on like the fire veil wand, this might just be a minor bug.
Now about the actual garden. The garden works faster than your private island, if you stand over your newly built farm you will see how fast it generates. There also is a new item called Sam’s Scythe, which clears a 3 by 3 area of grass, leaves and flowers. You can view some of those changes here.
