Hellforged Hoglins - Blog #22

Greetings Craftadians! Blog #22 is here with a brand new dungeon experience, as well as an exciting limited time Store promotion.

Hell Dungeon 👺

The Hellforged Hoglin and his horde of Zoglins, Wither Skeletons, Piglin Brutes, and Blazes have invaded a sector deep within the Nether Dimension.

We're excited to announce that as you're reading this post, the new Hell Dungeon has been enabled. This dungeon is more than double the size of our Ice Dungeon, contains a lot harder mobs and obstacles, and is controlled by a far tougher boss than that of the Glacial Grizzly.

First and foremost, this new dungeon is Hard. You will not make it out alive without teamwork, resilience, and adequate materials. This won't be a dungeon you can just sprint through and crit out the boss, because of the following new features and changes:

• The Boss has 3,000 health and a variety of abilities that will apply to all players within the Dungeon when triggered
• All minions have had their health and abilities buffed compared to the Ice Dungeon
• You cannot progress through a floor of the Dungeon without first killing all of the mobs within that floor (or waiting out the timer displayed in the Hologram at the end of the floor, whichever comes first)
• The Boss will only spawn after all other mobs within the Dungeon are dead (or 10 minutes after the dungeon starts, whichever comes first)
• All players will have Night Vision inside the Dungeon
• All cosmetics have been disabled within the Dungeon
• There will be a five minute delay between when the Donation Goal is reached and when the Dungeon actually opens
• The /dungeon menu has been re-enabled
• The loot table has been refreshed to include Nether themed rewards

There's much more to explore within the actual Dungeon, but we'll leave that to you!

We've added some brand new and rare rewards to the Hell Dungeon:

• 64x Gold Blocks
• 16x Ancient Debris
• 1x Netherite Block
• 3x Super Golden Apples
• 1x Elytra
• 1x Fire Walk Particle Trail
• 1x Hoglin Head Trophy
• 1x Hellforged Shulker Box

NOTE: The Ice Dungeon is getting a complete overhaul, and has been subsequently disabled for the time being. That means the only Dungeon that will open for the next couple weeks is the Hell Dungeon. If you're looking for an "easy" dungeon experience, it's in your best interest to wait for Ice.
