Easter Extravaganza - Blog #48

Greetings Craftadians!

Time truly has flown by since Season 4's release about 3 weeks ago! Today, we will be discussing a brand new event crate, new server wide event, latest additions and bug fixes to the server since Season 4 started.

Easter 2022 Crate 🐣

The Easter Bunny has arrived at Spawn, and it seems he brought more than just chocolate to Craftadia. The Easter Bunny will be visiting until the end of April, find him at /warp crates to open your crates!

Some special highlights to mention:

• If you have Optifine, you will be able to see the Easter 2022 Armor physically on player body's.
• The Easter 2022 Armor features Projectile Protection.
• Wearing the full armor set enables a set bonus for infinite jump boost.
• The Chick in Eggshell and Easter Bunny pets have unique walking and idle animations and contain the "Epic" rarity.
• The Easter 2022 Crate features a special Carrot jetpack.
• The Easter 2022 Crate features a special Rabbit Backpack back-mount.
• The Easter 2022 Gradient Relic can be applied on any item to give it a custom Easter-inspired gradient name.

The Craftadia store has activated a 15% sale on all crate keys in celebration of the new crate in addition to the the sitewide 5% sale!

Easter Egg Hunt 🥚

The Easter Bunny has been hiding 5 easter eggs all around Spawn every 1-2 hours.  Your objective is to collect as many eggs as you can by April 23rd to get some special rewards! You can check how many eggs you've collected by typing /event in-game at Spawn.

Egg Hunt Milestone Rewards:

• 15 Eggs: $25,000
• 50 Eggs: Easter 2022 Spray
• 100 Eggs: Cottontail Backmount

You'll get a message in chat when they appear, and another when they disappear shortly after. We've added extra small rewards each time you find an egg, such as money and gemstones, so even after 100 eggs the truly dedicated egg hunters can keep hunting!

The hidden eggs look like heads with easter egg textures, and they will also spin in circles and have a particle effect so they are not confused with other Spawn decor. Eggs will appear in the main throughput areas of spawn, so no need to go searching on the cliffs on the perimeter of spawn

Olympic Additions: 🏆

The Olympics has been a fun feature for the Craftadia community and we're excited to grow it even further. If you missed it, in addition to Olympics system that we know and love, we have recently added new Olympics Shops.

Players can gain Olympic points for winning ranked Olympics games, and then these points can spent on the Olympics Shop. The shop features 3 trophies (bronze, silver and gold) as well as an Olympic torch, all of which are placeable.

Ranked Olympics games are started by a donation or vote wheel spins, however to show off the new Olympics shop we have pre-scheduled ranked games for the time being, so take advantage of these scheduled games before they're gone! You can view browse the Olympics Shop and view the scheduled games by visiting /warp olympics.

There are more additions to come to the Olympics, so stay tuned!
