- Dwarf: Emerald Block & Gold Block
- Orc: Netherbrick Block & Bone Block
- Undead: Crying Obsidian & Purple Glazed Terracotta
- Fae: PurPur Pillar & Sponge
These blocks CAN NOW BE CRAFTED!
These special blocks are also available through mob drops, Faction keys (in the Enjin Store) or by trading with players.
Use these to increase your island level to unlock more advanced generators and extra island space.
Faction Blocks
Build a cobblestone generator to gain many different blocks and ores (not just cobblestone).
This improves as you increase your generators level. Different Ores are unlocked!
Extra blocks can be found in the 4 faction shops (open to all) around Spawn Mountain, where players can purchase them with Gold Pieces (GPs), our in-game currency that you generate through the time you have played, or by selling the hard earned resources you have mined, grown or farmed!
You can also get all kinds of unusual mob drops, which can then be sold in the shops to get more GPs for the things you need!
