Wild Waters — a major Piworld update 🌊
🌊 Wild Waters
Hello, survivors! This is the biggest Piworld update yet. The world has grown, and past its edge a very different sea is waiting.
🗺️ A new world
- The starting world is now twice as big. You reach the next island by boat or raft.
- Around it lies a ring of wild waters: huge islands in three new biomes.
- 🟢 Green isles: viking land, with villages, raider camps and the jarl's hall.
- 🟤 Brown isles: dwarf land, with mithril rocks and the Dwarf King.
- 🟡 Yellow isles: elf land, where moonstone glows at night.
- ☄️ Meteorites fall on the wild islands. You can mine meteorite ore where they land.
⛏️ New ores and the anvil
- Two new tiers above diamond: mithril and meteor steel.
- Five gems: moonstone, ice crystal, amber, bloodstone and obsidian. Each one has its own biome.
- 🔨 The anvil forges plates, cuts gems and makes meteor steel. You also make hooks, armor and weapons on it. You pick a recipe in its own window, and each ingredient has its own slot.
- Runes now really work: stun, freeze, poison, lifesteal, parry, armor wear and pull.
⚔️ New weapons
- 🏹 Crossbow with three kinds of bolts: copper, ice (slows) and obsidian (wears armor faster). Hold the left mouse button until the bolt shows on the crossbow, then let go.
- 🪃 Boomerang: it flies out and comes back to your hand.
- 🕸️ Net: it holds a mob or a player in place.
- 🔱 Harpoon: it hits the target and pulls it to you.
- 💣 Sticky bomb: it sticks, then blows up 2 seconds later.
- 🔨 Dwarven hammers: slow, heavy swings that stun and knock back several foes at once.
- 🗡️ Twin daggers: fast hits that make the target bleed and crit often.
🪝 Grappling hook
Six tiers, from rope to meteor. Grab trees and rocks with the right mouse button. The top hooks can even grab creatures.
👑 The boss chain
Slime King → Pharaoh → Snow Giant → Jarl → Dwarf King → UFO. Each boss drops what you need to summon the next one. You find all of them in the journal, on the Bosses tab.
📖 Journal and events
- A path of goals for new players, daily tasks, day streaks and collections.
- Wild events: viking raid, starfall, dwarf vein and shore treasure.
- 🍾 Notes in bottles lead to treasure. Dig it up with a shovel.
- 🗼 At night a lighthouse reveals the map around it for you.
- 📕 A recipe book (key C). You can track the recipe you need on the screen.
💀 Death and the mark
When you die, your whole bag stays on the spot. A mark on the screen, the minimap and the map shows you where to go. The bag stays for 60 minutes.
⚖️ Balance and more
- The spawn camp is now a safe zone, and you cannot build inside it.
- Fewer hostile mobs gather around a player, and even fewer around new players.
- 🔥 Fire heals 4 times more, and your own campfire keeps mobs away.
- 🌙 Kills at night give +50% XP.
- 🎵 New music for every biome and hundreds of new sounds.
📚 Every new item, recipe and boss is on the wiki: ahaha.studio/piworld/wiki
