SkyBlock - Year 300

Hello!

Today is the day SkyBlock reaches its 300th year, over 1500 real-life days since the game's inception. As has quickly become tradition, we will be celebrating the turn of the century with lots of cake! However, there will also be some special events taking place throughout the year for everyone to get involved in. Read on to find out more!

Century Cakes!
In celebration of such a momentous occasion, Simon himself has appeared in the Hub. As is typical of century celebrations, he will hand out a random Century Cake to each player who speaks to him. Not only can this be any of the 12 previously existing cakes, but some players may also receive one of two new cakes just added to the game! The Undead Century Cake grants those who consume it Vitality, and players who eat the Not-a-lie cake will find themselves given a small True Defense boost.

Raffles!
This year, Simon has brought a friend! Rezzus can be found at the Raffle Stand just in front of the Community Center in the Hub. Players who speak to him will receive a snazzy emblem showcasing which team they've been designated as part of the raffle event. Players who have been assigned a team will receive a raffle ticket for every 20 minutes spent online. Active playing can also reward players with a second ticket, which has a separate 20-minute cooldown.

All tickets a player collects will be automatically entered into the next raffle of each type. Raffles are held from the beginning of Year 300 until the end, and consist of three types:
  • The Speed Raffle is drawn every 2 hours, real-life time. All tickets players collected within the last two hours will be entered.​
  • The Daily Raffle is drawn every 24 hours. All tickets players collected within the last 24 hours will be entered. Due to there being more tickets entered, there will also be more rewards!​
  • The Big One is drawn once, at the end of Year 300. It gives the most (and best) rewards of any raffle type, and all tickets gathered throughout the entirety of Year 300 will be entered into the draw.​

All of this means that each ticket is entered into three different draws, giving you three separate chances at winning a prize! Fret not, however, as even the more unlucky entrants into the daily and big raffles will receive a consolation prize scaling with how many tickets they gathered.

Raffle Milestones
Another way in which those who participate in the event can earn rewards is through Raffle Milestones. As players gather tickets, they will receive rewards upon reaching certain thresholds. There is no raffle here - every player who reaches a milestone will be able to immediately claim the corresponding reward. With emblems, pet skins, and even a talisman up for grabs, nobody has to go home empty-handed!

A Special Memento
Remember when we spoke about teams being assigned earlier? This is where that comes into play. Throughout the event, a tally will be kept of how many raffle tickets each team has collected in total. By the end of the event, the team that has gathered the most tickets will be declared the winner. All players who took part in the event will then receive a special memento item, though only the winning team will be immortalized in the item's description.

And that's it! The Year 300 celebrations are live right now, so get online and have some fun! A massive thanks to the community for being so passionate about the game, and we look forward to celebrating again with you soon!
