except the crimson *Fix* which actually destoryed crimson capping the dominus stacks at 10 which didnt need to be nerfed because the problem with it wasnt that, it was the fact u could get infinite attack speed.
Except the fact that now crimson armour is nerfed Aurora is so unbelievably overpowered that crimson armour can cost around 6-7x the amount just to have maybe similar use. Aurora 7* with no heavy pearl cost and maybe only mana pool and breeze 4/5 is quite literally insane compared to storm armour yet it is less expensive. Before hand btw, mage was actually better than crimson (EVEN B4 THE NERF) despite the fact crimson was bugged. So someone like me who spent 750m+ on my crimson set has a worse set than someone who spent 100mish on a mediocre aurora set.
Except the crimsonite change which made the craft go from 20k>300+k and then not actually change the craft of molten powder. making molten powder craft change from about 800k or so to more like 8m. But then a day later after someone like me who INSTANTLY made a 300-400m investment (A STUPID AMOUNT OF COINS FOR ME) changed the recipe so it was now 1 crimsonite per molten powder and the old crimsonite kept the 32 per. But because when u crafted it originally it'd give u the old crimsonite ANY crafted after the update would keep the old ID meaning even tho they kept the 300k craft they actually were only worth 20k. So when i bought > 800 for 70k (3.5x the old price) they were actually the exact same value despite the fact this was after the update. meaning a 60-70mish investment in crimsonite went from possibly making me 4x the amount to actually around 1/3 the amount. (from 60m to maybe 240mish so 180m profit to a 45m loss). And then ofc molten powder no longer kept its craft price of 8m and was now worth a huge amount of 700-800k for ages. Meaning my 1.1m investment on over 200 of them basically lost 33% value. so from a 6x profit margin to 2/3 the value. AKA: around 200m investment could've made me >1billion (should've seens as that was the new craft price and they never stated what the new craft should be so there were 0 hints that they'd change). actually lost me like 66m.
Except the millenia aged ashes change which changed the drop chance from 1/1600 to 1/20. so it basically became 80x more common after i had grinded it. its a really good talisman and i wanted to have it for that reason. Also the fact spawning blazes is now 25% easier because it went from 100 kills to 75 kills which means someone like me who spent a while grinding blaze 7 had to spend a lot longer than someone who would start now.

And here is a message to hypickle:
Yes there is a lot right about this update, but holy **** it destroyed so much of the fun grind and even with so much for me to play for i have never felt more distraught over an update and never wanted to play skyblock less. I love the grind, things like grinding the blaze tali was actually fun because it was rewarding, grinding crimson was fun because it was rewarding, making an investment right as an update comes out so i can make bank of it just for hypixel to destroy it.
They need to start thinking about these updates more, not just instantly spewing them out - AND ACTUALLY CHECKING IF SOMETHING THEY'VE ADDED IS EVEN IMPLICATED IN THE GAME AT THE RIGHT TIME.
Btw to fix the whole aurora to crimson armour difference now, an easy way to sought this out is to nerf the mana given by aurora on lower tiers as well as nerfing breeze (not loads just a little). As well as buffing life regen so that crimson armour with this attribute is actually useful + making crimson much more reliable hp wise.
Also making crimson's dominus stack cap better. I think an easy way to do this is by making the full set bonus also apply to the actual tier of armour. So basic tier = 10 max stacks, hot tier = 11 max stacks, burning = 12, fiery = 13 and infernal = 15. And to make it so people dont just go all out on individual pieces you could make it so the amount of stacks applies to the lowest tier armour activated. So even if you had 2 infernal pieces and 1 basic it would give 10 max stacks. Or if you had 1 fiery, 2 hot then it would give 11 max stacks. This would make crimson more rewarding for having higher tiers.
This would be the 1st update in hypixel skyblock history that i would actually want them to revert. Because even with all thee nice changes the worst ones outweigh the bad for me. Ik its unlikely any hypixel admin will see this but we'll see. I've never felt more demotivated to this game despite the fact a massive update just came out and I love grinding the game.
Edit: btw i cant sell the crimsonite now bc it isnt bazaarable and i dont rly want to craft it into molten powder, bc it is technically a glitched item.

sounds like you made a lot of bad decisions
