The Crystal Nucleus is a Zone in the Crystal Hollows where players can place their Gemstone Crystals, claim commissions at Emissary Sisko and modify drills at Geonathan Greatforge.
Purpose
The Crystal Nucleus can be found at the center of the Crystal Hollows. Its main use is to deposit Gemstone Crystals found throughout the Crystal Hollows, rewarding the player with a randomly selected batch of items.
Additionally, this area is used for its direct connections to all 5 areas of the Crystal Hollows to travel efficiently and easily between all areas of the hollows.
The central location of the Crystal Nucleus is always 512, 106, 512.
Each time a player places all 5 Gemstone Crystals and completes the Crystal Nucleus quest, a random number from 14-20 shall be chosen, with this number being the amount of times the game rolls for an item.
In addition to the rewards listed below, the player will also receive 800 Heart of the Mountain XP and 1 Fine Gemstone (this includes a Fine Opal Gemstone) of each kind.
Divan's Alloy has a global drop chance that starts at 0.000125%Exactly 1/800,000 per Loot Bundle.
Every 3 SkyBlock days (1 IRL hour), the global drop chance is multiplied by 10. This caps at 0.0125%Exactly 1/8,000.
Whenever a player obtains a Divan's Alloy, the global drop chance resets back to 0.000125%Exactly 1/800,000, and the cycle repeats.
The alloy is rolled once per loot bundle, as opposed to other items being rolled 14-20 times.
Trivia
- The Crystal Nucleus is the only structure that generates at the same location across all lobbies.
- All Gemstone Crystals are used to forge Perfect Gemstones besides being used to obtain rewards at the Crystal Nucleus.
- The Jasper and Ruby Gemstone Crystals are the only ones not used nor required for the rewards at the Crystal Nucleus.
