How's about hypixel starts fixing things before disabling more things (2024)

How's about hypixel starts fixing things before disabling more things

so I just noticed that Souls Rebound is currently disabled

which is pretty infuriating, because it's one of the few things I wanted to do today and in the foreseeable future on skyblock.

let's take a loot at some of the things that are wrong (I purposely excluded very nitpicky ones) right now, all of which I have reported as is our duty as Hypixel players

(each page has up to 20 posts - 262 different bug reports)

1. Souls Rebound is disabled
2. Machine Gun Shortbow ability is disabled
3. Yesterday's Season of Jerry was problematic
4. the rewards from Carnival cannot be claimed
5. Whale Bait's item description says it increases odds of finding rare sea creatures by 10%, which is not true, as the number is 25% according to both wikis
6. Mining Fortune description says it affects ores, official wiki has a list of ores and fragilis lists several, and these two, as well as logic, say that Ice is not an ore, despite being affected
7. All Fortune stats' descriptions say they give +fortune/100 extra drops, even though it's *(1+fortune/100)
8. Carnival Fisherman says you can use any fishing rod for the minigame, which is untrue
9. Totem of Corruption doesn't mention its cooldown in its description
10. God Potion doesn't have rarity
11. When Bazaar overbidding protection triggers when selling items, on the bottom it says "buy in #s"
12. Pests' and visitors' offline spawns are determined by how long the island has been unloaded for, rather than how long has it been since the owners have been on it, which is problematic on high traffic gardens, as well as gardens that people visit for other reasons
13. Carnival Masks are worn on head, and function as armour (by granting stats) but can't be enchanted with Helmet Specific Enchantments or Reforges and appear in Tools & Misc section of auction house, rather than armour
14. Applying reforges to Special and Very Special items is more expensive than Divine, despite Divine being stronger
15. In server list and in lobby above the SkyBlock NPC, it says that 0.20.4 update was Better Mayors, which it wasn't
16. Purchasing Suspicious Scrap for Fossil Powder doesn't count as "Obtain[ing] it" for the Commission
17. During and After fighting Bacte, fast travel is disabled in Rift, because the game doesn't realise the fight is over (THIS IS NOT THE CASE FOR LEECH SUPREME, WHY IS IT FOR BACTE?)
    • Before someone says that there is no Eye near lagoon, leaving the arena pushes the players inside, while attempting to leave colosseum threatens them with death
18. Item names are: Mana Flux (2 words) Power Orb, Overflux Power Orb, Overflux Capacitor, Plasmaflux Power Orb
19. Bazaar Manipulation thing doesn't work when purchasing items through Hex (cost 12mil to test btw)
20. Archer bonus to arrow damage doesn't work on ferocity, despite that not being how ferocity should function
21. Hungry Hiker will show in log book as not being able to visit whenever the quest is available for completion
22. Finnegan's Blooming Business visitors are still able to visit
23. Mobs killed by ferocity (and fire veil wand, which at least makes sense) don't have their drops affected by Looting
    
    • tested, confirmed not to be true
24. The "7d avg price" doesn't appear on items purchasable from "main" bazaar menu, ie items that aren't hidden in another menu or outside of search menu (booster cookie + stock of stonks)
25. Scoreboard will show that Broodmother's spawn is "imminent" immediately after she's killed
26. Chocolate Rabbits obtained in another way than Hoppity's Hunt (for instance from milestones) still send a chat message saying "Hoppity's Hunt" rather than "Rabbit Found" or something
27. Fire Freeze Staff says it works on all mobs in its radius, even though some are immune (Dungeon Minibosses)
28. Ferocity works as berserker when hitting mobs melee with non melee weapon items (drills for instance and everything else that isn't a melee weapon, such as Fists)
29. Swing Range doesn't affect Fists
30. Stars on Midas' Sword which affect the Damage gained from the Greed ability, don't affect the Strength gained from Greed ability
31. Scavenger and Efficiency enchants only shows as having 5 levels in Enchantment Guide despite having 6 and 10 respectively
32. multiple ascension ropes can be used to exit 1 mineshaft when spammed
33. When obtaining Divine Rabbits, the chat message doesn't show their increase to Chocolate Production, only the employee level thingamajig
34. Dirt Bottle seems to be the only reforge stone not on bazaar
35. God Potions, Awkward Potions and Brews aren't marked as ingredients, despite being ingredients
36. Shredder's description is wrong on 3 different levels
37. the block broken by Mole perk isn't always adjacent to the block broken, but rather to another block broken by the player
38. the amount of blocks broken by the Mole perk is capped at +8, despite the ability saying +10
39. Zombie Armour is not considered Undead
40. lower drill cooldown perk of Sky Mall is not working in crystal hollows
41. Sky Mall says it works in Dwarven Mines, even though it works in Glacite Tunnels (which are not considered Dwarven Mines by Titanium Equipment ability), Crystal Hollows and Glacite Mineshafts
42. "Arachnal" is not a word
43. When levelling pets, the amount of chat messages is inconsistent, breaking 1 block to get multiple levels sends multiple messages, but claiming a commission to get multiple levels only sends 1 message
44. Glacite Golem pet doesn't (or didn't when I reported this) work on powder from Frozen Corpses or killing Glacite Maniacs
45. Powder Buff HotM perk which claims to boost powder from all sources, doesn't affect Glacite Maniacs
46. In his dialogue, professor robot asks for 6 robotron parts, which with Mole Pet shouldn't be the case
    
    • probably intentional, based on later dialogue
47. the Playtime message should say "You have # hours and # minutes OF playtime!" rather than not having the "of"
48. When having a Faction Quest to kill a miniboss multiple times, the message "You completed your miniboss quest! Visit the Town Board to claim the rewards." is sent after every kill, rather than after finishing the quest
49. Terminator doesn't seem to be able to hit endermen on private island (specifically Voidlings from Voidling Minion)
50. Hoppity's shop was (possibly still is, hard to test) able to sell rabbits the player doesn't have requirements for
51. Catching coins in water/lava does not show the number added in the scoreboard, the way it does when killing a mob
52. Catching enough trophy fish for the faction quest does not send a chat message
53. Sometimes when looting a vanguard corpse, less gemstones are awarded than chat message says (I got 70/160)
54. Emblems that require Class Average don't actually require Class Average, but all classes to be that level (classes can be higher level to accomplish average)
55. Sea Witches sea creatures are unaffected by Intimidation accessories
56. Gemstone Divan Helmet Skin is named wrong, as it should be Gemstone Helmet of Divan Skin
57. Titanium gained from Compact and Refined effects is not affected by Sky Mall
58. Many items on bazaar suggest irrational amount of items when setting up buy orders (Tungsten and Umber Key, all plates except for Perfect, Drill Engine, Fuel tank) lowest suggested option for these is 64, which is too much already, and it goes up to 1024
59. /cc command (co-op chat) doesn't return any error message when the command is used without one
60. pets that gives Combat XP boost against specific mobs (enderman, ghoul, tarantula, hound, wisp) say "Gain 1.5x Combat XP against <mob>" even though it should either be "Gain 1.5x Combat XP from <mob>" or "Gain 1.5x Combat Wisdom against <mob>"
61. maeve's menu cannot be opened quickly by spamming left click the way it is possible to do with other garden visitors
62. powder obtained from the Daily Grind perk in Heart of the Mountain (lvl 8) is not affected by King Talisman, even though it should
63. the "Mining Speed Boost is now available!" appears slightly later than it actually becomes available, about a second
64. Items purchased from Alchemist, and all other NPcs are sent to each individual slot, unless you "right-click for more trading options"
65. Umber and Tungsten Plates are rare, while Refined versions, which are the tier before, are higher rarity
66. the message "Your previous Plasmaflux Power Orb was removed!" does not have the ✦ symbol, showing that it has a skin applied
    • Pet Rule messages for example do
67. mycelium dust is currently bugged and doesn't do anything
68. crimson isle tablists do not feature Jacob Event; even though you can farm mushrooms (by killing cows) and netherwart
69. Catacombs Master says it grants Health, even though it doesn't
70. Autorecomb doesn't work on Equipment dropped from mobs, such as ender mobs
    • tested, triggered AutoRecomb 7x but not a single time on Ender Necklace
71. Experience Artifact and Night Vision Charm mention them being required in inventory, rather than accessory bag
72. In Collections Leaderboards it show different data when you don't have the required 25k collection for it to display the Leaderboard Position (Reported on August 11, 2022)
    • Clicking to show the ranking in the Collections menu and hovering over a specific skill's collection shows that collections for which you are unqualified as "N/A", but by going to a specific skill UI and hovering over the Bottle o' Enchanting will show these collections as 0 instead, regardless of how many are collected

Everything else is either too pedantic (yes, more pedantic than this) for me to complain about here, has been posted multiple times and/or is fixed. This is still more than 25% of what I have reported

edit: Considering this post gets attention, I decided to:

• cross out bugs that aren't bugs (whether or not it's because what I have been told is not true, probably intentional behaviour or me misunderstanding something.
• Reworded some of them for specificity and added some details
• and here are bug reports made since then:

1. Bone Meal doesn't work on Garden's Barn plot, it works elsewhere, but not on the middle plot for no reason
2. The block broken by Mole perk isn't always adjacent to the block broken, but rather to another block broken by the player
3. In museum, some equipment sets are named Set (namely Lotus) and some are Equipment (namely Party, which has 5 pieces and probably shouldn't be called that)
4. Despite items donated to Museum being prevented from being Salvaged, Ender Armour and presumably other sets can be Sacrificed at the dragon altar despite being donated to museum
5. Book of Stats cannot be applied to Wands
6. Another bug based on hearsay (I am not about to go scatha mining, possibly for hours, to test a bug I have heard exists from multiple people), if someone drops a Scatha pet from Scatha, everyone who hit it lootshares it, even though it should be 20%
7. Hearsay: Looting doesn't work on scathas, from what I have heard
8. Mineral armour doesn't work on Hard Stone in Crystal Hollows, even though it should
9. Carnival Tickets do not show that they are a material and have a recipe that utilises them
10. Having everyone leave Khazad-dûm while Bal is alive will respawn it
11. Party Armor (Party Top Hat, Necklace, Cloak, Belt, Gloves) are referred to as Party Equipment in Museum.
    • It should be called Party Armor and not Equipment because Helmet is not an Equipment piece, but Equipment pieces are Armor (they have been referred to as "4 new armor pieces" in 0.13 patch notes

sorry! this one’s my doing
I’m pretty sure the bug related to it would be piss easy to fix (about as easy as fixing a typo) but ehhhhh they can’t be bothered to
as for #15 I honestly believe it’s intentional

there was a great machine gun bow accident so we had to get it fixed

Wow.. that’s a lot. Just one thing I’d like to elaborate on:

No shortbow (from my knowledge) can actually shoot minion mobs at all, I’m unable to hit any with my juju on private island, so look into this one.

1. Mining Fortune description says it affects ores, official wiki has a list of ores and fragilis lists several, and these two, as well as logic, say that Ice is not an ore, despite being affected

they silly and forgot to mention ingame some non-ores are affected by mining fortune

you sure? i punch stuff like graveyard zombies with crimson armor on all the time out of boredom and notice the swing range increase but i could be wrong, how'd you test it

oh

I was doign it in dungeons, where the berserker ability seems to wrongfully assume the usage of weapons

Yes...?
This is how percentages work.
+50% is a 1.50x multiplier

Culfre said:

except it doesn't say + percentage

but + #

so if something drops multiple items at once (titanium drops 2, gemstones give more too and so on), it implies it gives less than it actually does

i mean
i don't think fists are counted as weapons right?
in game
like until very recently strength didn't work on them

and the bers perk specifies melee weapons

it was around some time ago that both ice and gravel were allowed to work with mining fortune
for balance reasons i think this is 100% fine
it is no different from them allowing fortune to work with cobblestone

now the actual bug is that non ore fortune continues to work on ice and gravel, which means snail still grants extra drop on ice along with mining fortune

not always true, I've had the message pop up and when I tried to use it it said it was still on cooldown

there are commemorative rewards like the spooky pie and whatnot for each carnival activity, I just checked and they are claimable so I'm unsure if it was a temporary issue or if it was mislisted.

well...
were to start...

remember back when they disabled backpacks? for like 3months?
(funny story actually as main suspect was actually one of the people who reported bugs and was actually rewarded for the bug reports...., i say this as i and others have reported game breaking bugs and never got anything for them despite seemingly being some the 1st reports on it and actually getting feedback from them acknowledging that it is indeed game breaking and they will fix it rather then a generic we know of this issue that they gave at time via the report bugs forum options)

next some items could be disable due to a not widely known bug related to it and probably a issue reproducing the bugs or figuring out what creating the bug....

i mean multiple factors
thats not that simple to fix.... paired with how most developers are today that get hired? i mean look at video games in general lol indie games tend to have higher quility then big game studio games now despite their budgets pointing to it should be the complete reverse of what it is...

and hypixel is joked about on its code
so its probably poorly layered paired with how many unique items skyblock has
probably not that simple to fix the code or find the spacific code in question
(but i never seen its code so idk could be simple fixes)

anyway
i had no issue with carnivals unique rewards

could be some people didnt play the games? or just common new content scoring issues like remember 1st raffle for the skyblock year event thing that gave the necrons ladder

You know admins don't just disable things for no reason, right? It got disabled because people were using it to lag and crash lobbies, which also leads to item duplication exploits.

Click to expand...

It doesn't say that. It says it increases your odds to get double drops from fishing by 10%, and increases the chance to catch rare sea creatures by an unspecified amount.

the_gaster_guy_on_forums said:

Purchasing Suspicious Scrap for Fossil Powder doesn't count as "Obtain[ing] it" for the Commission

Click to expand...

Probably intentional, considering the commission is called "Scrap Collector", and buying it isn't exactly collecting it, though I'll give you that it's confusing because the description says "Obtain".

the_gaster_guy_on_forums said:

"Arachnal" is not a word

Click to expand...

You're complaining that things in a video game with a fantasy world are made up? Seriously? Sure, it's not a form people have used in real life, but it still makes perfect sense grammatically. Don't be a prescriptivist.

the_gaster_guy_on_forums said:

In his dialogue, professor robot asks for 6 robotron parts, which with Mole Pet shouldn't be the case

Click to expand...

Clearly intentional if you look at the whole dialogue. The Mole pet makes him "forgetful" and he thinks you've already handed in all 6 parts when you've only handed in 5.

the_gaster_guy_on_forums said:

Titanium gained from Compact and Refined effects is not affected by Sky Mall

Pretty sure this is intentional, it would be quite OP to drop 5 Enchanted Titanium at once.
