Skyblock Tutorial

MCDrugs Skyblock is our unique version of Skyblock, with a drug-themed twist. Starting with a tiny island, a few blocks, and a handful of items, your goal is to expand your island, increase its level, complete challenges, and rank up, all of which will earn you access to new items, blocks, and abilities that will help further shape and grow your island in a unique way.

You can get to MCDrugs Skyblock by doing /skyblock from any world.

Quick Start Guide

Don't want to read the whole tutorial? We recommend coming back to read specific parts later, but if you just want to get into playing, here's what you need to know:

• Use /is to get to your island. This is your own island, though you can invite others with the /is team commands (note that you can only have one island, if you join someone else's then you will lose yours)
• Your island level is the rough value of your island and represents your progress. Most blocks have value (/value) that increase your island level when placed.
• See what you unlock at each island level with /progress.

Getting Started

Skyblock Basics

To start off, use /is to get your island. Everyone starts with the same basic island, and the following starting items:

• 9 dirt/grass blocks.
• 3 sand blocks.
• An oak tree and oak sapling.
• Two ice blocks and one lava bucket.
• Two wheat seeds
• Six mushroom stew.

Your goal is to use these items to expand your island. The first thing you want to do (after chopping down your tree for wood) is set up a cobblestone generator. This will give you access to infinite cobblestone (and some other items, see "Generators" below) to increase the size and level of your island.

Island Level

Your island level is the rough value of your entire island. Almost every block you place on your island has value, and your island level is based on the total value of all placed blocks on your island. Your island level will automatically calculate and update every few minutes, but you can also update it manually at any time with /level.

To see the value of a block, hold it in your hand and use /value.

Level Unlocks

Representing the value and size of your island, your island level is an estimate of how far you have progressed. Many things, including drugs, generators, fertilizers, and more, are unlocked at specific island levels. As you reach higher island levels, you'll unlock these things automatically.

To see where you are in terms of island level progression and what you get at each island level, use /progress.

Drugs

As your island grows, you'll have more space to grow drugs. Skyblock shares the same type of raw drugs as the main gamemode, all of which can be grown on your island and sold at /spawn in the shops area. Growing drugs on Skyblock is a bit different from vanilla growing mechanics, requiring a few more steps.

Unlocking Drugs

You start off only able to grow wheat. Even if you obtain seeds for other drugs, you won't be able to plant them until your island level is high enough.

Drugs are unlocked at the following island levels:

• Wheat: Level 0
• Carrots: Level 5
• Potatoes: Level 10
• Cocoa Beans: Level 20
• Sugarcane: Level 30
• Cactus: Level 40
• Netherwart: Level 50 (Nether only)
• Beetroot: Level 60
• Pumpkin Seeds: Level 70
• Melon Seeds: Level 80
• Mushrooms: Level 90
• Chorus Fruit: Level 100 (End only)

As you approach island levels that unlock new drugs, your generators will start to very rarely drop new drug seeds.

Fertilizer

Once you have a drug unlocked, you can't just plant it like you normally would, you need to also fertilize the farmland. Fertilizer is made by composters (see below) and will fertilize your farmland for a limited time, spanning from 20 minutes with Poor Fertilizer to 36 hours with Legendary Fertilizer.

To fertilize the block you want to plant a drug on, right-click the block with fertilizer in your hand. You should get a message, particle effect, and sound. You can right-click a block to see if it's fertilized, and how much longer it will stay fertilized for if it is.
