Back to the ten worlds

4Storm Archipelago

Rule: Wind. Stage: Mastery.

Floating islands under a permanent storm. Every 30 seconds a gust hits anyone under the open sky unless they crouch or take shelter, and you hear it two seconds early. Every 45 seconds lightning marks a spot near exposed players with sparks, then strikes three seconds later. Elytra stay grounded here until the Master of Seasons falls: the Glider and the Grappling Hook are how you cross.

  • 30 sbetween two gusts
  • 45 sbetween two lightning strikes
  • 3 sfrom the sparks to the strike

Storm Rod

Set it on top of a lightning rod under the open sky. A storm tears World 4 open; a Storm Essence fed to it does too.
