Changelog/2025/January 21

Hello!

Happy new year and welcome to Hypixel SkyBlock Patch 0.21.1! Today we bring to you an update containing substantial changes to several different areas of the game.

Read on for all the details!

Our latest RNG Meter has been added to the game, and it's for the Experimentation Table! All players have been given 10%EnchantingXP/1000 as retroactive progress. In addition to the meter, we have also done a pass on the various loot the Table has to offer. The new loot tables for rare and ultra-rare books can be seen below. All books have the same chance of dropping.

Spoiler: Rare Books

Spoiler: Ultra-rare Books

• Removed "Basic" and "Advanced" books from the Experimentation Table and replaced them with varying amounts of Enchanting XP.
  • To level this out, the Enchanting XP given upon table completion has been reduced.
• Added the following dyes to their respective RNG Meters:
  • Jade Dye (Crystal Nucleus RNG Meter)
  • Matcha Dye (Zombie Slayer RNG Meter)
  • Brick Red Dye (Spider Slayer RNG Meter)
  • Celeste Dye (Wolf Slayer RNG Meter)
  • Byzantium Dye (Enderman Slayer RNG Meter)
  • Flame Dye (Blaze Slayer RNG Meter)
  • Sangria Dye (Vampire Slayer RNG Meter)
  • Livid Dye (Master Mode Floor 5 RNG Meter)
  • Necron Dye (Master Mode Floor 7 RNG Meter)
• Added a /meter alias to the /rng command.
• "Your RNG Meter was reset" message now only plays AFTER obtaining your selected drop. No more ruined surprises!
• Added some hologram text above the Experimentation Table to make it stand out more.
• Added a search bar to all RNG Meters.
• Added overflow charges to the Experimentation Table.
• Changed the reset button on all RNG Meters from a Sign to an Exclamation Mark player head.

A new area, named the Abandoned Quarry, has been added to the Dwarven Mines! Players can travel to this area by talking to the Station Master, and can choose to either spend their time mining veins of Dwarven Quartz, which have a higher base yield than regular Quartz, or to cast their rods in the hopes of catching some Mithril Grubbers.

Mithril Grubbers drop varying amounts of Mithril Power when killed, the amount varying with the size of the Grubber:

• Small (55% of Grubbers): 250 Mithril Powder
• Medium (30% of Grubbers): 500 Mithril Powder
• Large (10% of Grubbers): 1000 Mithril Powder
• Bloated (5% of Grubbers): 5000 Mithril Powder

Powder drops from Grubbers are affected by your standard powder-interacting perks, such as drill parts, HOTM perks, and the 2x powder event.

Also added to the game is the Speckled Teacup, a GREAT CATCH! tier of treasure that can be returned to its rightful owner, Brynmor, in exchange for his Abiphone contact.
