Dungeon

Dungeons are randomly generated rooms that contain monsters and rewards that scale as you make progress.

Overview

Dungeons are a series of randomly generated rooms that contain monsters and various rewards. Dungeons will include multiple floors that increase in difficulty as you progress. Dungeons are composed of enclosed, small rooms, with intricate architecture full of danger and secrets.

Throughout the Dungeon, you can find Blessings that can give various buffs to help you stay alive and kill mobs. In order to progress through some rooms you may encounter Mini Bosses and Starred Mobs. There are also Bosses at the end of the Dungeon Run. The Bosses are, Bonzo, Scarf, The Professor, Thorn, Livid, Sadan or Necron.

Wither Skull Hints

Interacting with Wither Skull

You need a Wither Key to open this door!
This is the way.
That's a door, and I keep the door...there.
Death awaits you on this path, and everywhere else to be fair
If you didn't find the Wither Key yet, it probably means you need to go back!
Monsters with a star next to their name have Wither Keys...sometimes.

Floors

Floors are the different "levels" a dungeon has. The higher the floor, the higher the difficulty. Almost every floor also has a Master Mode version which is unlocked after the final boss is beaten on normal difficulty.
To enter a floor, the player must have beaten the previous floor as well as meet the other requirements listed.

Generation

Dungeons generate as a series of rooms connected to each other through small doorways. Some of these doors are automatically unlocked, though some require a Wither or Blood Key to be unlocked.

Dungeons also generate in different sizes depending on the floor of the Dungeon. These dungeon sizes can be seen as follows:

Name	Dungeon Size
Tiny	4x4
Small	5x5
Medium	5x6 and 6x6 (special rooms can generate outside of the 5x5 border)
Large	6x6

In order to go through doors that require a Wither or Blood Key, you must kill every mob in the room with a ﴾ ﴿ in their name. After all the mobs are killed, the key will spawn on the ground, and it can be picked up manually instantly or automatically after 10 seconds.

The Blood Room can be accessed after going through each room that requires a Blood Key to open. A Fairy Room will always generate in between the path to the entrance and blood room.

Map Locations

There are different types of rooms to explore as you go through the Catacombs floors.

A room with the minimum objectives completed will display a white 🗸 (checkmark) over it, while a fully completed room (with all secrets) will display a green 🗸 checkmark. A failed room will display a red X.

Regular: There are several types of these rooms and they are needed to travel through the dungeon. There are 2x2, 1x1, 2x1, 3x1, 4x1 and L shaped rooms.
Starting room: The starting room where Mort is and where the dungeon players queue up to start the dungeon.
Fairy: A room with a healing pool and Fairies that drop Revive Stones once you kill them.
Puzzle: A room that shows up on every floor that has the dungeon players do various tasks in order to complete the puzzle.
Miniboss: A room that will either hold an Angry Archaeologist, Lost Adventurer, Frozen Adventurer, Shadow Assassin, or King Midas.
Trap: A room that shows up on Floor 3 and higher that disables abilities and the player has to navigate through traps in order to complete the room.
Blood: The final room before the boss, with The Watcher spawning in mobs the dungeon players must kill them all in order to pass into the Boss room.

Classes

Classes are the five different roles that the player can choose from at the beginning of a Dungeon. Each class has its own set of passive abilities, Dungeon Orb abilities, and ghost abilities.

Class Buff

Each class is the most effective if only one is present per dungeon. This is due to the class buffs a class receives at the start of a dungeon. If only one of each is present, the class buff each class receives is 100%.

For example, if there was one Berserk 20 in a dungeon run, they would have +20% additional throwing axe damage earned through their Berserk level + the 100% class buff, giving them +120% throwing axe damage.

Main Article: Classes

Class Name and Page	Description
Healer	The Healer's primary purpose is to provide healing and support to themselves and other players in the Dungeon.
Mage	The Mage's primary purpose is to deal as much Damage as possible, primarily through the use of Magic Damage and item abilities.
Berserk	The Berserk's primary purpose is to deal as much Damage as possible.
Archer	The Archer's primary purpose is to deal Damage using ranged attacks through the use of Bows and other Class Abilities.
Tank	The Tank's primary purpose is to take the damage that other players in the Dungeon normally would.

Blessings

Blessings are a type of stat buff that can be found in Dungeons.

Loot

Dungeon loot can be obtained through three different methods:

Main Article: Catacombs Items

Bonus Stats

Items dropped from Dungeon Mobs can drop with different base stats. These stats depend on the floor they were dropped in, as well as a randomly generated number. There up are to 10 possible sets of base stats, which are referred to are "tiers".

The tiered stats are determined by the floor from which the item is obtained. Entrance floor drops count as Floor 1 drops for the "tier". If the floor is a Master Mode, then 3 tiers are added. You can find the stat for each tier on their respective pages.

Example Item Page: Ice Spray Wand

The base stats of items dropped from Dungeon Mobs can also be increased by up to 50%.

${\color {Gray}Bonus={\mbox{random number between }}1+EssenceShopLootingPerk{\mbox{ and }}50}$

${\color {Gray}Stat=Stat*(1+{\frac {Bonus}{100}})}$

If the drop chance of the item is less than 1% or the bonus percentage is 50%, then only you can pick up the dropped item.

If the bonus percentage is 50%, the Rarity of the item is automatically upgraded.

Dungeon Items

Dungeon Items are items that are either obtainable from Dungeons or convertible into dungeon items. These items can have various stat boosts while in Dungeons depending on your Dungeoneering level as well as the amount of Dungeon and Master Stars applied on the item.

The Dungeoneering stat bonus only applies to its respect Dungeon type. And since the Catacombs are the only type of Dungeon in SkyBlock, this doesn't end up mattering anyways.

Both stat bonuses are applied separately and are multiplied on top of the player's final stat value. The stat bonuses for the item only modify the stats of the item, and do not affect other stat bonuses.

The following stats can be multiplied from the following sources in Dungeons:

From Dungeoneering and Stars	Just from Stars	Cannot be Multiplied
Health Defense Damage Strength Speed Crit Damage Intelligence Fishing Speed Sea Creature Chance Mining Fortune Mining Speed Pristine	Crit Chance Bonus Attack Speed Magic Find True Defense Ferocity Ability Damage	Pet Luck Farming Fortune Foraging Fortune

Formulas

The Dungeoneering stat bonus formula can be seen as follows:

${\color {Gray}Stat=Stat*(1+{\frac {StatBonusPercent}{100}})}$

For Dungeon and Master Stars, it's a little different. Each Dungeon Star grants a +10% stat bonus, meaning the maximum bonus from them is +50%. While in Master Mode, each Master Star grants a +5% bonus on top of the base +50% bonus, meaning the maximum bonus from them is +75%.

The Dungeon and Master Star formula can be seen as follows:

${\color {Gray}Stat=Stat*(1+{\frac {StarBonusPercent}{100}})}$

Death and Revive Mechanics

Ghosts

When a player dies in a Dungeon, they turn into what is called a Ghost. They can be seen by other players from the ghost texture on their head.

Ghosts can only interact with parts of the Dungeon through the use of Ghost Abilities. They can also damage fairies to revive themselves, but other than that, they can only assist their teammates using their ghost abilities.

Reviving Ghosts

There are 7 different ways that a player can be revived from being a ghost:

Method Users	Method
Alive Players	Starting the boss fight from entering the portal in the Blood Room
Ghosts	Having a Revive Stone in your inventory before becoming a ghost
Alive Players and Ghosts	Killing a Fairy in the Fairy Room or Catacombs Floor IV boss fight arena
Alive Players	Using a Revive Stone
Alive Players	Killing a Wandering Soul with the ghost's skin and name
Alive Players	Using the Revive ability or passive ability from the Healer class
Ghosts	Automatically reviving in the Catacombs Entrance, Floor I, and Floor II

Completion Mechanics

Finishing

A Dungeon run is finished when one of the following events takes place:

Success or Fail	Method
Success	The Boss is defeated
Fail	All players have turned into Ghosts or left
Fail	70 minutes have passed

Scoring

Dungeon Scoring consists of 4 separate categories: Skill, Exploration, Speed, and Bonus. The three main categories, Skill, Exploration, and Speed, each have a score that ranges from 0 to 100. The Bonus score can vary depending on floor and Mayor perks but ranges from 0 to 17.

The Skill score ranges from 20 to 100, with 20 being the lowest score achievable. The Skill Score is calculated as such:
$\color {Gray}{Skill=20+\left\lfloor 80*\left({\frac {CompletedRooms}{TotalRooms}}\right)\right\rfloor -\left(10*FailedPuzzles\right)-DeathPenalty}$
Each death counts as 2 points unless the player has a Legendary Spirit Pet, in which case the first death only loses 1 point.

The Exploration Score depends on the percentage of dungeon completed, along with the percentage of secrets achieved. It is calculated as such:
$\color {Gray}{Explore=\left\lfloor 60*\left({\frac {CompletedRooms}{TotalRooms}}\right)\right\rfloor +\left\lfloor \left(40*{\frac {SecretPercentFound}{SecretPercentNeeded}}\right)\right\rfloor }$
Where the percentage of needed secrets is:
$\color {Gray}SecretPercentNeeded={\begin{cases}30\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 1}}\\40\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 2}}\\50\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 3}}\\60\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 4}}\\70\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 5}}\\85\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 6}}\\100\%,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 7 and Master Mode}}\end{cases}}$

The Speed Score depends on the time needed to complete the dungeon. It is calculated as such: <Check>
$\color {Gray}TimeLimit={\begin{cases}600s,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 1, 2, 3, and 5}}\\720s,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 4 and 6}}\\840s,&{\text{On }}Floor{\text{ 7}}\\480s,&{\text{On }}MasterModeFloor{\text{ 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5}}\\600s,&{\text{On }}MasterModeFloor{\text{ 6}}\\840s,&{\text{On }}MasterModeFloor{\text{ 7}}\\\end{cases}}$
$\color {Gray}T=\left(TotalSeconds-TimeLimit\right)*\left({\frac {600}{TimeLimit}}\right)$
$\color {Gray}Speed={\begin{cases}100,&T<{\text{ 0}}\\\left\lceil 100-{\frac {T}{12}}\right\rceil ,&{\text{0 }}<T\leq {\text{Something1}}\\\left\lceil 95-{\frac {T}{24}}\right\rceil ,&{\text{Something1 }}<T\leq {\text{Something2}}\\\left\lceil 89-{\frac {T}{36}}\right\rceil ,&{\text{Something2 }}<T\leq {\text{Something3}}\\\left\lceil 85-{\frac {T}{42}}\right\rceil ,&{\text{Something3 }}<T\leq {\text{3570}}\\0,&T>{\text{3570}}\\\end{cases}}$

The bonus score can be increased through several means:

Method	Bonus Score Gained
Paul's EZPZ Perk	+10
Killing Crypt Undeads	+1 per kill, up to +5
Killing Mimics	+2, only on Floor VI and VII

Score Rankings are dependent on the score achieved:

A	At least 230
B	At least 160
C	At least 100
