I agree with chris. Although I was able to make it island top 3 last season even if i started out sooo late. That's probably because of my paladin rank, I could setup a warp and I got no life
Here are the things I wish to see in skyblock if ever there's an update:
1. Fix mob spawn rate so players can make a mob grinder without spawners.
2. Give members a permission to setup a warp with a certain requirement (Example: 5 million, certain number of spawners, certain island level, completed Challenges)
3. Quickshop plugin
4. New ranks with awesome perks
Btw, I'm just thinking out loud. it's what i wish to see coming from a player's point of view.
