How We Made $150 Million In 1 Week – Hypixel Skyblock

ender-dragon-pet-sirknightj

So, you want to get rich quick. Well, we did too. I’ll share me and my brother’s story of how we went from having $58 million to having $215 million in the span of 3 days.

I’ll start off by telling you some small things we did to earn money. Then, I’ll reveal the huge strategy at the end of this post.

The story starts off on Sunday, July 5th. My brother wanted to buy and Ender Dragon pet in order to deal more damage in Dragon Fights. We decided that it would be best to wait until the prices dropped… which it didn’t.

Our Initial Strategy

Up till this point, our main money making method has been sitting in the end and farming zealots for eyes. We spent a lot of time doing this. I didn’t want to sell the eyes, so we agreed do dragons. We actually got decently lucky, and ended up turning a profit. The reason we profited was because we were able to place in the top 2, while placing 2 each time, and we were able to do a LOT of dragons. If you do a few, then you’re likely to lose money, since the only profitable drops at the time were Aspect of the Dragons, Dragon Pets, and any Superior Armors. Basically, your graph of money over time should be steadily increasing, with occasional huge spikes.

Foraging Guide – Ocelot vs. Monkey Pet – Hypixel Skyblock

Ah yes, Foraging. One of the key skills to level up in Hypixel Skyblock if you want to deal more damage. Foraging is a really boring skill to level up, but it’s also one of the quicker skills to level up, close to Farming (ignoring Alchemy, because you can max that in a few hours).

How to Get Foraging XP?

Breaking flowers gives you +1 foraging XP.

Breaking any log will give you +6 foraging XP.

Clearly, breaking logs is much better than breaking flowers.

11-foraging-xp-per-log

My lv. 92 ocelot pet combined with a Foraging XP potion and the +20% skill xp bonus currently happening right now allows me to get 11 foraging XP per log.

The Park Foraging Level Requirements

Before you have access to The Park, you should level up your foraging by farming the Oak trees in the Hub.

The Park is split up into various areas. Each area is locked until you reach a specific level in your Foraging Skill.

It only takes 50 XP to level up from foraging 0 to 1, so just break 9 logs and you’re there.

Foraging Level Requirement Location
I Birch Park
II Spruce Woods
III Dark Thicket
IV Savanna Woodland
V Jungle Island

Enchantment Guide – Which Enchantments Do You Need? – Hypixel Skyblock

lots-of-enchantments-sirknightj-hypixel-skyblock

We all know enchantments make a really big deal on any tool or armor piece. They can increase your damage output, increase rare item drop chances, and increase your stats.

With the numerous enchantments you can apply to tools in Hypixel Skyblock, it may get a bit daunting to understand all of them. That’s why we created this enchantment guide, so you know they all work.

Note that Unbreaking and Mending do not exist in this version of Minecraft. All tools in Hypixel Skyblock do not break, and Hypixel’s Skyblock servers are running on Minecraft 1.8.9.

If you’re looking for a certain enchantment or tool, use Ctrl+F or Cmd+F to find whatever you’re looking for.

Swords

I recommend crafting all these books. It’s much more time-efficient than repeatedly clicking at an enchanting table for the right enchantment to come up.

Normal Enchantments:

For any most swords, such as the Raider’s Axe, you should aim to get the following enchantments, except the ones marked in red or orange (listed alphabetically):

How to get Free Splashes – Hypixel Skyblock

thats-a-lot-of-potions

Having potion effects are essential for speeding up your progress in Hypixel Skyblock. Whether your’re farming Zealots, Revenants, Tarantulas, or Svens, potions increase your movement speed, health, damage, and XP gain.

Here’s what a lot of potion effects look like:

potion-effects-sirknightj

Players in-game call these splashes “god splashes” since… well… we have a lot of potion effects.

In this article, I’ll show you the strategy which I use to find free splashes, along with providing information about how splashes work, and sharing common splashing locations.

Splash Information

These types of splashes usually include the following potions:

  • Strength VIII (8)
  • Archery IV (4)
  • Pet Luck IV (4)
  • Speed VIII (8)
  • Combat XP Boost III (3)
  • Adrenaline VIII (8)
  • Experience I*
  • Spirit IV (4)
  • Critical IV (4)
  • Agility IV (4)
  • Magic Find IV (4)
  • Rabbit VI (6)
  • Dodge IV (4)
  • True Resistance IV (4)

*Experience I should be infused with a Viking’s Tear.

These are the essential 14 potions usually provided by the splasher. Bonus potions sometimes included include:

  • Haste III (3)
  • Fishing XP Boost III (3)
  • Foraging XP Boost III (3)
  • Mining XP Boost III (3)
  • Alchemy XP Boost III (3)
  • Enchanting XP Boost III (3)
  • Invisibility I (1)
  • Absorbption VIII (8)

The Skyblock Community doesn’t like Haste because it messes with the attack rate of the player. Some players don’t want Magic Find because it interferes with some pet drops. Though, having Haste and Magic Find really don’t make that big of a difference to the average player.

Farming Pumpkins and Sugarcane Guide – Hypixel Skyblock

sugarcane-row-sirknightj-hypixel-skyblock

Want an early-game way to make some quick money on Hypixel Skyblock? Well you’re in luck. Today, we’ll be showing you how we farm pumpkins and sugarcane in Hypixel Skyblock.

Why Farm At All?

Well, there are a few reasons for why we should farm.

First, farming is a way for you to get Farming XP. Getting additional farming levels will increase your base HP. You can also level up the Farmhand skill, which allows you to get additional drops from every harvest.

One level in farming equates to one level in farmhand.

Every level of farmhand will increase your chance of getting double drops. At farming I, you have a 4% chance of getting double drops. This increases by 4% for every farmhand level. At level XV (25), you have a 100% chance of getting double drops. At level 26, you have a 100% chance to get a second drop, but you now also have a 4% chance to get a triple drop. So, by farming L (50), you have a 100% chance to get triple drops. Pretty cool right?

Another reason you should level up your farming a bit is to get extra HP. Here is an HP increasing table:

Farming Level HP Gained on Level Up
I – XIV (1 – 14) +2
XV – XIX (15 – 19) +3
XX – XXV (20 – 25) +4
XXVI – L (26 – 50) +5

In total, you can get an extra 192 health from leveling up farming. Not bad.

Farming also is a decent way to earn money other than farming for Summoning Eyes.
