SkyBlock

A small island in the sky — and everything you make of it.

Gather resources, level eleven skills, place minions and trade at the bazaar. You earn the same coins as in the lobby and shop.

Every rule in detail

The complete guide — every number exactly as set on our servers.

At a glance
  • Goal: expand your island, level up skills and collections, grow stronger and richer.
  • Currency: the same coins as in the lobby and the shop – whatever you earn here you can spend everywhere, and the other way round.

  • How to join: in the lobby via the navigator or with /play → SkyBlock. /sb opens your SkyBlock menu at any time.
First steps

/skills shows your levels, /sblevel your SkyBlock level (it grows with skills, collections, fairy souls, minions, slayers and dungeons).

Collections and recipes

Every resource you gather counts towards its collection – about 75 of them across Farming, Mining, Combat, Foraging, Fishing and Bosses. Every collection tier unlocks new recipes: better tools, armor, minions and gear. /sammlungen shows what's next.

Minions

Minions work for you on your island – even while you're offline. There are 61 kinds, from the cobblestone and wheat minions to the zombie and lily pad minions. With upgrades they work faster or sell their output themselves. Every new minion type also counts towards your SkyBlock level. /minions shows all your minions.

Making money and trading
WhereHow
Merchantssell resources directly to merchants; you can buy back your last 5 sales
Bazaar (/bz)buy and sell orders for resources, like a stock exchange; 1.25 % tax on sales
Auction House (/ah)auction single items or offer them for instant buy; 1 % listing fee
Trade (/trade)swap directly with another player

Important: new coins (from selling to merchants, skill rewards and the like) are capped, together with CityBuild – up to 1,000 coins a day in full, above that only a quarter, and from 2,000 coins you're done for the day. Trading between players doesn't count towards the cap. /purse shows your balance.

Fighting: slayers and dungeons
  • Slayer (/slayer): summon a boss and defeat it – in several tiers. Revenant Horror (zombie), Tarantula Broodfather (spider), Sven Packmaster (wolf) and Voidgloom Seraph (enderman).
  • Dungeons (/dungeon): the Catacombs – from the Entrance to Floor VII. Join a group from the party finder (/pf) and pick a class: Healer, Mage, Berserker, Archer or Tank. Every run gives a score and chests full of loot.
Expanding your island
Island sizeCost
radius 80free
radius 1001,000 coins
radius 1202,500 coins
radius 1405,000 coins
radius 16010,000 coins
  • Up to 5 visitors can be on your island at once, more with a rank (VIP +1, VIP+ +2, MVP +3, PRIME +5); you can buy more slots. Visit others with /visit <player>.
  • Co-op: up to 5 players share one island (/koop). An invitation is valid for 10 minutes.
  • Profiles: you can have up to 4 separate SkyBlock profiles (/profile).
Even more systems

Pets (/pets), the accessory bag (/accessories), a wardrobe for whole armor sets (/wardrobe), storage and ender chest (/storage, /ec), sacks for resources (/sacks), quests (/quests), a calendar with events (/calendar), potions and brewing, and a bestiary for every kind of monster.

Tips
  • Place minions early – they are your income while you sleep.
  • Check /sammlungen for what the next recipe needs, and gather on purpose.
  • Sell at the Bazaar instead of to merchants when it's worth it – players often pay more.
  • Collect fairy souls along the way – they make you permanently stronger.
  • Don't go into dungeons alone: with a group and matching classes you get much further.
