Crews System - Bandits vs Pirates

When you create/join an island you can also join one of two crews if you'd like: Bandits or Pirates

Each crew will have their own hideout location for members to chill in, and receive different bonuses throughout the season. For example, one weekend Bandits may receive double EXP, and Pirates another weekend.

Your island level will contribute to your crews total level, and will be displayed on a versus leaderboard @ http://manacube.com/crews

Preview (Getting new skin renders for em soon)



Custom Enchantments

20 Custom Enchantments have been released. You can purchase Common/Rare/Legendary books from the Enchanter & spawn or by typing /ce with experience points. When you open the book, you will receive a random book in that enchantment category.

THE BLACKSMITH

The Blacksmith is an NPC releasing soon that will combine your items and books that have custom enchantments for an XP cost.

Currently just doing some balance testing, and this should be released within the next day or two. When it is released you can type /blacksmith or find the NPC at spawn.


WHITE & BLACK SCROLLS (& ANGEL DUST)

White & Black Scrolls are new packages added to the Black Market on our webstore.

When you drag a white scroll onto an enchantable item, it'll protect that item from ever destroying from destroy rates while applying custom enchantments. It adds a "PROTECTED" lore at the bottom of the item to indicate this

When you drag a black scroll onto an item with custom enchants, it'll take 1 random custom enchantment off the item and return it back to you in book form to use again.

When you drag Angel Dust onto a custom enchantment book, it'll change the success rate to 100%



Merged Spawners & Omni-Spawners

In 5.0 you can now stack your spawners together, similar to how mob stacking works.

This will vastly improve client FPS performance for people with lower end computers while near grinders/big islands, and also will also increase your average mobs/min you get from grinders.

Example: 10 individual iron golem spawners would get you around 220-230 iron golems every 5 minutes
10 stacked iron golem spawners would get you around 600-700 iron golems every 5 minutes



Synced & Upgradeable Hoppers




You can now upgrade your hoppers to increase how fast they go, their suction rate/range, and how many items they send every tick.

You can also sync your hoppers to other hoppers/chests - even if they aren't attached/connected!


Left click a hopper to open it's interface. If you want to remove it you'll have to shift while breaking it.




7 In-Game Leaderboards & Personal Stats GUI



You can now view the top 27 players for 7 different categories by typing /leaderboard or right clicking the leaderboard NPC at spawn.



Auction House Categories




We've added categories to the auction house, to allow you to quickly find what you're looking for



Island Border Expansions


With our new island world, we've vastly increased the distance between islands.
The default starting island borders has been increased from 100x100 to 150x150

You can buy Island Expansion packs on our store (when released) to increase your island borders to 300x300, 450x450 & 600x600!
