technoplane:banished no matter how low-energy i am, i always have the energy to over-explain random skyblock things i think they’re already gone as of me making this post, but shiny pigs were first introduced when techno was mayor back in 2021, and they were brought back for a week to celebrate the skyblock three year anniversary! you go to the technoshop (this time just called the pig shop) which is a pig npc, and you can buy a shiny orb for 2k coins. you hit a shiny pig with the orb and it’ll bounce off to somewhere else in the hub. bring the pig back to the orb and you can click on it for a reward :0this is the loot table for them, it’s nothing fantastic but they’re pretty fun. the potato talisman is huge for players who are on ironman or stranded and don’t have another way to get onethe shiny relic was a one-time event with techno, it was not included in the drops for the anniversarythe shiny shard IS included this time, you can use three of them to craft a shiny rod. holding it makes the pigs walk faster, and they drop 25% more coins. not super useful considering these pigs are rarely ever here and it has no other function, but fun :]this event is the only place to get farming for dummies (adds +1 farming fortune to a farming item, stackable up to +5), harvesting 6, and the potato spreading which just makes minions occasionally drop potatoes like the diamond spreading. the pig shop is also the only place to get the blood god crest, a common talisman that grants strength based on the number of mobs killed since holding it, and the art of war, a book that adds +5 strength to any weapon. the pig mask could be purchased in 2021, but not this time. it was useless JKFDHSG -- source link
