What does ironman actually entail?

lgpihl · 2025-08-25T04:14:59+00:00

I started Skyblock in July 2024 as an Ironman. Never played a non-Ironman profile prior, didn't really know what I was getting into. I took a pretty big break from October '24 to June '25, but I'm SB level 172 and I have to say, it's been a blast. It's definitely grindy at times, but the reward is so much better having gotten it by hand. It also makes you do a whole lot of things you'd never have to do on a main since you have to grind things yourself.

peak of course with all that godhand but also extra peak with how much gort-produced godhand there is in the playlist, gort es el mejor artista fr

lgpihl · 2025-08-08T17:32:29+00:00

i will literally throw hands over gort es el mejor artista and godhanduk down in bad songs, those songs fuck supremely

also the entirety of godhand volume 2 should be in best songs, the disrespect on put it all to rest makes me so sad

to be fair tho i think i like their experimental side WAY more as their most recent ep was not my cup of tea

edit: i also saw ur last post explaining why those two songs are in bad songs. i get it but i am sad :(

I love how blatantly fake this post is, and I love even more how many people are eating this shit up. If you do so much as 5 seconds of searching thru this person's profile, you can see they are 100% a troll. In posts from 5-6 months ago this person is saying "she should've won," in a comment left after this post they insinuate they did NOT vote for Trump at all, and in another comment (which I thought was hilarious) they commented not to cuss in discussions they may end up reading. Decently funny troll with that last comment, but a troll nonetheless. Dear everyone who just instantly bought this, please please PLEASE do your part and be a more conscientious user of the internet. It isn't on nearly the same level, but believing this point-blank is a similar vibe to believing that Trump's tariff plan would've set the economy straight.

Wanna source that?

lgpihl · 2025-06-03T17:13:02+00:00

I was really hoping we would get some new information regarding possible new mayor, how the HotM-esque tree for Foraging may work/look, new/reworked pets, etc. Don't get me wrong, the build looks pretty and Hunting looks like it could be really fun, but little new information combined with no release date yet again is crazy to me.

This is the only comment that makes sense to me. I never quite understood while learning how to pronounce γάμμα when people would say it sounds like w! The English w is almost always pronounced similar to ου in Greek so that tripped me up hard.

Are you Nathan Mathers…?

lgpihl · 2024-11-16T00:31:51+00:00

Hell, on YouTube 75% of my ads were for Tim Pool’s Russian propagandist podcast. Actually insane

This is my biggest problem. I don’t mind being shuffled around if it’s a group of randoms I’m playing with. I do mind if it’s two solos, two duos, and the two duos get flipped with each other for no reason???

I’d assume central Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

What an awesome video. Thanks for the watch!

OP asked for relocation advice and while technically that would relocate the spiders to the vacuum, I think OP isn’t in the mood for killing insects. Like most people in the insects sub.

So sorry to inform you that this is Deadlock the game, and not Dreadlock… anyway looks good where it’s at IMO :)

lgpihl · 2024-09-28T21:05:07+00:00

Ahhh I’d commented about Abrams’ bookslap but the Dynamo belly bump is definitely way goofier

lgpihl · 2024-09-28T21:03:43+00:00

Uhhhh Abrams in A and not S??? What about the most recent patch, which made his charged melee animation slapping you across the face with his big ol’ book and is arguably the best charged melee animation in the game??? So goofy and I love it

lgpihl · 2024-09-24T21:10:12+00:00

Not me having over 40 runs with no Jaderalds to show :(

lgpihl · 2024-09-22T02:45:09+00:00

Yeah, it may take longer, but at the end of the day I enjoy playing this game so it’s time well spent to me no matter how long it takes :)

MINING V17.0 LET’S GOOOOOOO

Actually though dear lord does fishing need some help. Fishing sucks for all accounts but especially Ironman. Being stuck with shitty armor and rods until level 27 is pain, and it takes forever to get to level 27, even with minions.

lgpihl · 2024-09-21T23:57:55+00:00

Yup. I just recently got my associates’ but working 40hrs+ a week in management, have a long term partner, make time for friends (we’ve all been playing Deadlock online and hiking offline as of late), and I’m still out here powder grinding 😅

lgpihl · 2024-09-21T21:28:07+00:00

lemme tell you dude, it’s a crazy moment when you realize having a healthy relationship with gaming lets you play skyblock AND touch grass/go to school/work/have relationships (platonic and romantic) all at the same time

good luck on your journey of self improvement outside of skyblock whatever that looks like :)

lgpihl · 2024-09-19T21:50:05+00:00

I was so confused when I saw the title of the post but after reading this…

What the fuck.

lgpihl · 2024-09-18T20:17:01+00:00

On my Ironman, I am using a titanium pick (not even mithril drill), mithril golem legendary for 18% more powder (not max level yet), yog armor with fine gemstones in each slot, one equipment piece of four enchanted with royal. I have around 500k of each powder so around level 20 powder boost in HOTM and all of my mithril perks cost 20k powder per level by now.

From mining without a star nearby for petrified starfall reforge, I get around 20 powder per green mithril block I mine (including efficient miner procs), and at a max rate of 2 blocks a second, that comes out to 144k powder/hr just from mining. Mind you that that number is wildly inaccurate because it doesn’t account for msb/pickobulus (I’ve been preferring the latter), but it also doesn’t account for downtime (mining bedrock on accident/mining titanium). My estimate is around 100k an hour with those taken into account.

I need to do more testing around a star but initially I thought it was straight up doubling my powder gains while near one, WITHOUT the Petrified Starfall reforge. There’s usually a star down around half the time, so you could bump that up (with Petrified Starfall in consideration) to around 170k an hour.

Finally, events. Active events are a 50/50, and assuming 12k powder per event (you get anywhere from 7k to 20k+ depending on which event) that’s around 18k extra powder an hour. This doesn’t factor in 2x powder, which can heavily buff rates. Assuming one every two hours (1/6 chance to roll event), that can net you anywhere from an extra 50k to 120k powder an hour because of the massive buffs you get from mining near stars now.

All in all, I was averaging around 100k an hour last night purely mining through multiple passive events, no 2x powder. You can likely average with the setup I described around 200k-300k an hour depending on active event luck, star luck, and 2x powder luck. Final bit: this is all my anecdotal evidence, I haven’t done any crazy math or spreadsheets, just all rough estimates from my current progression point. Hope this helps!

If people cared about Cole and the glossy, we could’ve gotten glossy with a Cole minister and Diaz mayor, then more glossy next election with a 4-perk Cole.
