July 26th, 2024, 18:00 GMT / 13:00 EST / 12:00 CST / 10:00 PST / 23:30 IST

Hello, players of PikaNetwork.

It is that time again, time for a new KitPvP reset.
We are happy to announce that the new KitPvP reset is right around the corner!

With this update we have heard your feedback and concerns regarding KitPvP, so we have decided to take a step back, and make KitPvP more about PvPing, and playing against other players again to earn money and resources.
We have removed the old events, and fishing, and are adding brand new minigames, with a minigame shop to upgrade your loadout, but that is not all, read the post for all details!

We can't wait to share with you all the fantastic additions on the way. So, why wait?
We're excited to hear what you think of this exciting new season of KitPvP!

Are you ready to hop into a new season?! Say no more. The update will be released at:

July 26th, 2024
18:00 GMT / 13:00 EST / 12:00 CST / 10:00 PST / 23:30 IST

🪖 Last Man Standing Event

We are delighted to announce that there will be the KitPvP event before the reset to fight for who is the best player out there.
The zone will be manually moved, to avoid everyone being clustered up, and the event will start 3 hours before reset.
❓ What is LMS?
Last Man Standing (LMS) is an event we always run before a KitPvP reset. It is essentially a free-for-all/Team Deathmatch-styled game, where all players are competing to be the last player remaining! Access to commands such as: /spawn, /shop, /pv will be disabled, meaning that you cannot leave the arena, or buy any extra loot. There will be a shrinking border, make sure to stay inside the area, or else you will take massive damage from the border itself. Survive till the end to get the rewards! Once you die, you're out of the event. Carry on watching until someone wins!
💻 How can I play?
Everyone is welcome to participate in the event! To be part of it, simply jump into the Arena before the event starts.
Anyone who doesn't jump before the event starts will not be able to participate. Make sure you're there in time, all kitted up and ready to go! Staff will announce in chat once the event starts. Anyone still at spawn will be automatically TPd into the arena at the start and you might die instantly if you're not at your computer! Once you die, you will go into spectator mode for the rest of the Event, to cheer on your friends, or put off the enemy (politely)! Even if you want to spectate the event, you need to be there on time.

Changelog
The following are the most important features/modifications implemented towards this season's map and features.


🐎 New! Map

A KitPvP season would not be complete without a brand new map, so hop on your horses and run into this new Wild West-themed KitPvP map.
🤠 A new map with a Wild West theme.
❓ Looking for some help? There are plenty of NPCs explaining all the features.
🔑 A new seasonal crate has been added.
Inside this map we have decided to add some more safe zones, to give everyone a fair shot at escaping.
The famous pit is returning, but this time there will only be 1 Pit instead of two.



🎲 New! Minigames

Introducing the new minigames: we now have 5 exciting minigames that start randomly every 2 hours.
Compete in these minigames for a chance to earn a Minigame Token, these tokens can be used in the new Minigame Shop, to upgrade your loadouts.
This shop sells the following items, that rotate every 48 hours:
  • Special Sets
  • Stat Track Tokens
  • Crate Keys
  • Money
  • Essence
  • Brand new special set upgrades

    • Apply these upgrade tokens on your special set to either gain an extra +0.5% damage increase, or decrease.
    • There is no limit on how many of these tokens you can apply, as they will be very hard to obtain.
Each minigame will start with 10 players and has a maximum of 24 players per game.
By default, a minigame lasts a total of 5 minutes.

📰 The following 5 minigames have been added for this new season:
⛄ Spleef
🥊 Last Man Standing
⚔️ Free for All
🏹 One in the Quiver
🎯 Bow Battle
A classic minigame. Spawn on top of a layer of snow, and eliminate your opponents by breaking the snow blocks below them.

Breaking snow blocks gives you snowballs that you can throw at players or blocks as well.
Time for a brawl. Everyone will spawn in with the same loadout, and then it is time to fight till there is only 1 player standing.A more casual version of the LMS event. In Free for All (FFA), you fight to get the most kills within 5 minutes.

The player with the most kills after 5 minutes wins. Upon dying you will respawn.
Another classic minigame. Use your bow to one-shot players, and get an arrow as a refund. If you miss you will have to go into a melee fight to get another arrow.


The player with the most kills after 5 minutes wins. Upon dying you will respawn.
Just like the Free For All Event, but this time, your bow is your weapon. You can only hit players using arrows.

The player with the most kills after 5 minutes wins. Upon dying you will respawn.

😲 Spice up some minigames with your loadouts.
These minigames would not be complete for KitPvP if you couldn't upgrade your own loadouts for these Minigames.
That's why for the Last Man Standing, Free for All, and Bow Battle event you can setup your own loadout to take into this minigame, rather than playing with the default assigned kit you get.
Your loadout is locked in for a Minigame, once assigned it will stay assigned unless you take the loadout items out of it again, this means if I want to have my special set in the Last Man Standing event, I will need to have it put inside my loadout locker before the event starts, when its in the locker, you are not able to use these items in PvP, it will be given to you during the event, and will stay in your locker after it has ended.


🏆 New! Prestiges
Players can climb a ladder of prestige levels, which show how well they are doing in the game.
Each prestige level is split into smaller parts, showing more detailed progress.
🚩Prestige Points.
Your prestige level is determined by your prestige points, which work like a ranked ELO system seen in other competitive games.
This means your points change based on how you do in your fights—how many players you beat and the level of those players.
🧗‍♂️ Climb the ladder of Prestige.
When you kill a player, you gain prestige points, especially if they are ranked higher than you.
If you lose, especially to someone ranked lower, you lose prestige points.
Upon reaching a new prestige you will be able to claim the one-time rewards for reaching that prestige, so there are always new rewards waiting for you.



🏰New! Outpost

We have added a new outpost to KitPvP called the Damage Decrease Outpost.
When your team captures this outpost, everyone on your team will take 5% less damage.
This outpost helps protect your team and makes it easier to survive battles.
Capture the Damage Decrease Outpost to gain this important advantage!
Gold Flip is a new coin flip-style minigame where you can challenge other players and wager your gold. If you have any leftover gold, you can now flip a coin against another player for a chance to double your gold or lose it all. It's a quick and exciting way to test your luck and see if you can increase your gold stash. Good luck, and may the odds be in your favor!

🤺 New! Battle Crate

The Battle Crate is a new crate key that you can randomly obtain by killing players.
This crate is perfect for gaining extra money, exp, essence, and other essential items that you typically grind for.
It's a great way to boost your resources and rewards through PvP battles.
🥇 New! Gold Flip

Good luck, and may the odds be in your favor!



🏯 Updated! KOTHs
We're making exciting changes to the King of the Hill events in KitPvP!
The loot tables for all KOTHs have been buffed, offering better rewards for capturing the hill.
To keep the action going, KOTH events will now happen more frequently—every 2 hours.
We will be having 2 ground KOTHs and 2 sky KOTHs to add variety and new challenges.

🎨 Updated! Aesthetic Overhaul
We believe that change is essential for growth and development.
At PikaNetwork, our style is always evolving, and we aim to ensure that our SkyBlock game keeps pace.
This season, we've given SkyBlock a major aesthetic overhaul. Here's what's new:
  • In-depth Help Commands: We've enhanced our help commands for certain features to make them easier for players to understand and use.
  • Hologram Styling: We've revamped the styling of our holograms to give them a fresh, new look.
  • Messages: We've updated all our messages to make them clearer and more informative.
  • Menus: We've also refreshed the styling of some existing help menus.



🥊Removed! Special Weapons

We have decided to remove special weapons from KitPvP.
With the new features and special sets we have added, we realized that they provide more than enough excitement and variety.
For now, all special weapons have been put away and we do not plan to bring them back.



🎣 Removed! Fishing

We have decided to also remove fishing, and go back to a KitPvP where grinding the new minigames, or killing other players is the way to grind.
With this change the economy will be tuned down by a lot, making money more valuable, as you are no longer able to 24/7 grind in peace, as you could with fishing.
To make money, you need to participate in minigames, koths, or fight for it.
📑 Misc. Updates and changes.
After receiving some suggestions about modifying a couple of things, we have decided to make the following modifications in order to make everyone's SkyBlock experience much better. We have modified a few features that were present on the previous map, and here is the list including those modifications, along with a justification for the majority:

  • Added a new seasonal crate.
  • Added back killstreak messages.
  • Added more ways to obtain stat track tokens.
  • Updated the spawn layout.
  • Removed Quest Level system.
  • Added new classes.
  • Removed all older events (except Stronghold & KOTH)
  • Added an option to withdraw essence.
  • Heads of players you kill now go in your mail delivery.
  • Added a party crate for vote parties.
  • ...and much more.


Please note: Any suggestions for changes feel free to leave them in the comments.
❓Question and Answers
What will I lose?
  • Your stats & team
  • All items in your inventory and ender chest
  • Any currencies such as money and exp
  • Chatcolor permissions.
  • Seasonal ranks and perks
What will I keep?
  • Purchased Ranks & Rank Upgrades
  • Purchased Perks
  • Won out of crates commands/ranks


We hope to see you on our new SkyBlock server soon!
If you have feedback or any suggestion, let us know we'd love to make this as good as we can.
Thanks

If you have any leftover gold, you can now flip a coin against another player for a chance to double your gold or lose it all. It's a quick and exciting way to test your luck and see if you can increase your gold stash. Good luck, and may the odds be in your favor!

🤺 New! Battle Crate

The Battle Crate is a new crate key that you can randomly obtain by killing players.
This crate is perfect for gaining extra money, exp, essence, and other essential items that you typically grind for.
It's a great way to boost your resources and rewards through PvP battles.

🏯 Updated! KOTHs
We're making exciting changes to the King of the Hill events in KitPvP!
The loot tables for all KOTHs have been buffed, offering better rewards for capturing the hill.
To keep the action going, KOTH events will now happen more frequently—every 2 hours.
We will be having 2 ground KOTHs and 2 sky KOTHs to add variety and new challenges.

🎨 Updated! Aesthetic Overhaul
We believe that change is essential for growth and development.
At PikaNetwork, our style is always evolving, and we aim to ensure that our SkyBlock game keeps pace.
This season, we've given SkyBlock a major aesthetic overhaul. Here's what's new:
  • In-depth Help Commands: We've enhanced our help commands for certain features to make them easier for players to understand and use.
  • Hologram Styling: We've revamped the styling of our holograms to give them a fresh, new look.
  • Messages: We've updated all our messages to make them clearer and more informative.
  • Menus: We've also refreshed the styling of some existing help menus.



🥊Removed! Special Weapons

We have decided to remove special weapons from KitPvP.
With the new features and special sets we have added, we realized that they provide more than enough excitement and variety.
For now, all special weapons have been put away and we do not plan to bring them back.



🎣 Removed! Fishing

We have decided to also remove fishing, and go back to a KitPvP where grinding the new minigames, or killing other players is the way to grind.
With this change the economy will be tuned down by a lot, making money more valuable, as you are no longer able to 24/7 grind in peace, as you could with fishing.
To make money, you need to participate in minigames, koths, or fight for it.
📑 Misc. Updates and changes.
After receiving some suggestions about modifying a couple of things, we have decided to make the following modifications in order to make everyone's SkyBlock experience much better. We have modified a few features that were present on the previous map, and here is the list including those modifications, along with a justification for the majority:

  • Added a new seasonal crate.
  • Added back killstreak messages.
  • Added more ways to obtain stat track tokens.
  • Updated the spawn layout.
  • Removed Quest Level system.
  • Added new classes.
  • Removed all older events (except Stronghold & KOTH)
  • Added an option to withdraw essence.
  • Heads of players you kill now go in your mail delivery.

  • ...and much more.


Please note: Any suggestions for changes feel free to leave them in the comments.

KitPvP - PikaNetwork 2024
July 26th, 2024, 18:00 GMT / 13:00 EST / 12:00 CST / 10:00 PST / 23:30 IST

Hello, players of PikaNetwork.

It is that time again, time for a new KitPvP reset.
We are happy to announce that the new KitPvP reset is right around the corner!

With this update we have heard your feedback and concerns regarding KitPvP, so we have decided to take a step back, and make KitPvP more about PvPing, and playing against other players again to earn money and resources.
We have removed the old events, and fishing, and are adding brand new minigames, with a minigame shop to upgrade your loadout, but that is not all, read the post for all details!

We can't wait to share with you all the fantastic additions on the way. So, why wait?
We're excited to hear what you think of this exciting new season of KitPvP!


Are you ready to hop into a new season?! Say no more. The update will be released at:

🎊Giveaways
If you would like to start the season on the right track, we've got you covered! We are running a giveaway for store giftcards.
To enter the giveaways, go ahead and visit our official post!
🪖 Last Man Standing Event

We are delighted to announce that there will be the KitPvP event before the reset to fight for who is the best player out there.
The zone will be manually moved, to avoid everyone being clustered up, and the event will start 3 hours before reset.
❓ What is LMS?
Last Man Standing (LMS) is an event we always run before a KitPvP reset. It is essentially a free-for-all/Team Deathmatch-styled game, where all players are competing to be the last player remaining! Access to commands such as: /spawn, /shop, /pv will be disabled, meaning that you cannot leave the arena, or buy any extra loot. There will be a shrinking border, make sure to stay inside the area, or else you will take massive damage from the border itself. Survive till the end to get the rewards! Once you die, you're out of the event. Carry on watching until someone wins!
💻 How can I play?
Everyone is welcome to participate in the event! To be part of it, simply jump into the Arena before the event starts.
Anyone who doesn't jump before the event starts will not be able to participate. Make sure you're there in time, all kitted up and ready to go! Staff will announce in chat once the event starts. Anyone still at spawn will be automatically TPd into the arena at the start and you might die instantly if you're not at your computer! Once you die, you will go into spectator mode for the rest of the Event, to cheer on your friends, or put off the enemy (politely)! Even if you want to spectate the event, you need to be there on time.

Changelog
The following are the most important features/modifications implemented towards this season's map and features.


🐎 New! Map

A KitPvP season would not be complete without a brand new map, so hop on your horses and run into this new Wild West-themed KitPvP map.
🤠 A new map with a Wild West theme.
❓ Looking for some help? There are plenty of NPCs explaining all the features.
🔑 A new seasonal crate has been added.
Inside this map we have decided to add some more safe zones, to give everyone a fair shot at escaping.
The famous pit is returning, but this time there will only be 1 Pit instead of two.



🎲 New! Minigames

Introducing the new minigames: we now have 5 exciting minigames that start randomly every 2 hours.
Compete in these minigames for a chance to earn a Minigame Token, these tokens can be used in the new Minigame Shop, to upgrade your loadouts.
This shop sells the following items, that rotate every 48 hours:
  • Special Sets
  • Stat Track Tokens
  • Crate Keys
  • Money
  • Essence
  • Brand new special set upgrades

    • Apply these upgrade tokens on your special set to either gain an extra +0.5% damage increase, or decrease.
    • There is no limit on how many of these tokens you can apply, as they will be very hard to obtain.
Each minigame will start with 10 players and has a maximum of 24 players per game.
By default, a minigame lasts a total of 5 minutes.

📰 The following 5 minigames have been added for this new season:
⛄ Spleef
🥊 Last Man Standing
⚔️ Free for All
🏹 One in the Quiver
🎯 Bow Battle
A classic minigame. Spawn on top of a layer of snow, and eliminate your opponents by breaking the snow blocks below them.

Breaking snow blocks gives you snowballs that you can throw at players or blocks as well.
Time for a brawl. Everyone will spawn in with the same loadout, and then it is time to fight till there is only 1 player standing.A more casual version of the LMS event. In Free for All (FFA), you fight to get the most kills within 5 minutes.

The player with the most kills after 5 minutes wins. Upon dying you will respawn.
Another classic minigame. Use your bow to one-shot players, and get an arrow as a refund. If you miss you will have to go into a melee fight to get another arrow.


The player with the most kills after 5 minutes wins. Upon dying you will respawn.
Just like the Free For All Event, but this time, your bow is your weapon. You can only hit players using arrows.

The player with the most kills after 5 minutes wins. Upon dying you will respawn.

😲 Spice up some minigames with your loadouts.
These minigames would not be complete for KitPvP if you couldn't upgrade your own loadouts for these Minigames.
That's why for the Last Man Standing, Free for All, and Bow Battle event you can setup your own loadout to take into this minigame, rather than playing with the default assigned kit you get.
Your loadout is locked in for a Minigame, once assigned it will stay assigned unless you take the loadout items out of it again, this means if I want to have my special set in the Last Man Standing event, I will need to have it put inside my loadout locker before the event starts, when its in the locker, you are not able to use these items in PvP, it will be given to you during the event, and will stay in your locker after it has ended.


🏆 New! Prestiges
Players can climb a ladder of prestige levels, which show how well they are doing in the game.
Each prestige level is split into smaller parts, showing more detailed progress.
🚩Prestige Points.
Your prestige level is determined by your prestige points, which work like a ranked ELO system seen in other competitive games.
This means your points change based on how you do in your fights—how many players you beat and the level of those players.
🧗‍♂️ Climb the ladder of Prestige.
When you kill a player, you gain prestige points, especially if they are ranked higher than you.
If you lose, especially to someone ranked lower, you lose prestige points.
Upon reaching a new prestige you will be able to claim the one-time rewards for reaching that prestige, so there are always new rewards waiting for you.



🏰New! Outpost

We have added a new outpost to KitPvP called the Damage Decrease Outpost.
When your team captures this outpost, everyone on your team will take 5% less damage.
This outpost helps protect your team and makes it easier to survive battles.
Capture the Damage Decrease Outpost to gain this important advantage!
