⏫Rush Weekends & General Updates

Greetings everyone! It’s time to formally announce our Rush Weekends and give a few fun general updates!

Rush Weekends

Rush Weekends are a new permanent feature of Silver Springs. They run every weekend for the full 24 hours of Saturday and Sunday, in Pacific time. The first will begin this Saturday, June 21st.

Each rush activates a set of shared Core Bonuses to help you enjoy the weekend, as well as a random Wild Bonus from a list. Below are the Core Bonuses of each rush (every weekend!), as well as the Wild Bonus for the first rush this weekend - the River Rush!

✅Core Bonuses

• +25% to earned Trial Points, mcMMO XP, and Boardwalk tickets, and to rune drop rates

• The quest A Vexing Situation has only a 4-hour cooldown

• mcMMO diminishing returns cap at 0.5x XP instead of 0.25x

🐟Wild Bonus - River Rush!

• It’s not SSS without rain and community fishing! During this rush, rain lasts longer and you’ll hook fish a bit quicker.

General Updates

🧍Armor stands:

• Updated the Armor Stand Customizer which is accessed by sneak right clicking armor stands:

  • The smallness toggle has been replaced with +/- buttons to modify the armor stand's scale between 0.2x and 2x.

  • Added a "Swap Armor" button to swap all armor the armor stand is wearing with your own.

  • Added a lower interface with editable slots to control equipment. This lets you put anything in their slots, including the hand slots for ones with arms.

• Added ‘/rotate info’, which allows punching an armor stand to view all of its current rotations.

📖Runecrafting balance, largely in preparation for the PvP tournament this weekend:

• Reduced the PvP damage of the Avatar of Wardens sonic blast from 5 ❤ to 1.5 ❤.

• Reduced the damage of Gatling's additional arrows by 50%.

  • This is harsh, but we believe justified. It too quickly outscales options like Multishot, and some of its power comes from the sheer projectile count, which increases reliability and proc rates, so it doesn't need best-in-class damage within a few shots. It still scales into being the strongest DPS spread enchant.

• Halved the duration of Adrenaline Rush's reduced speed and gravity in PvP.

• Fixed Ice Aspect and Plague Aspect applying their effects even when the hit was blocked.

✏️For those who were interested in the design behind the Arcanum expansion, a large post detailing the process is available here: Designing Boundaries of the Arcanum

✨Added the ‘/paragon’ command for viewing info about the existing Paragon items.

🪲Fixed mcMMO XP diminishing returns going down to 0.05x instead of our intended 0.25x. mcMMO was bugged and ignoring our config for this field.

Thanks, friends! Please leave feedback for any of this in ⁠#💌feedback-and-suggestions as usual. 🫶
