Dig It Meteor Guide
The Meteor update brings a new event to the game, as well as a shovel for a reward!
Meteor Event
The Meteor Event has a chance to occur on any server. When active, a meteor crashes into the ground in a random location. I recommend using a boat to get to it as you may miss out if you arrive late. Luckily, it’s easy to spot as the glowing orange flames that it emits stand out.
You and the other players on the server must work as a team to destroy the meteor. The minigame works the same way as digging up an item, though it continues until the meteor is broken. The event doesn’t last long, so the more players the better. If the event ends before the meteor is destroyed, it despawns.
Upon its destruction, all participating players can collect the Meteor Shovel. If you dealt the most damage, you receive the Mythical rarity Meteor Core. Everyone else gets a Legendary rarity Meteor!
Meteor Shovel
The Meteor Shovel is a level 55+ shovel which has a unique obtainment method. To get this shovel, you need to wait for the Meteor event to activate, which I’ve explained above if you need more information about that!
