As promised, the anticipated update to the store has arrived and brought many exciting changes to the network.
With this update, find two brand new packages on our store page: the new Legend rank and boosters for our SMP+ experience.
Legend
The brand new Legend rank has come in as a replacement of our old supporter ranks (YouTube, Patreon, Twitch, etc.) with a $5/month price tag directly from our storefront. This new rank comes with a customizable name and prefix color, formatting for item name, lore, and general chat, a small cosmetic package in the hub, and more.
As a reminder, the aforementioned supporter ranks have been grandfathered into the new rank initially, and will lose access to it on November 1st, 2024. Patreon supporters will continue to receive codes to get the rank for free from the store. The current Discord link for all roles will be cut on that date, as well. This date also includes restricting the commands /itemname and /itemlore to the Legend rank only, as well.
SMP+ Boosters
Many SMP+ players have already experienced this before. Players will be able to purchase boosters for $5 to boost earnings of Crowns (the currency) by 1.5x for a period of three days. This is the exact same as the boosters which have been introduced with each update cycle. These impact all players equally and can only be purchased once every three days.
Commonly Asked Questions
Can I gift this new role?
Yes, you can. Just enter the recipient's username when purchasing the rank to gift it.
Will the rank ever have competitive perks?
No. The goal is to keep all of our experiences as accessible as possible, and a large part of that is ensuring the integrity of the experience through preventing Pay-to-Win methods.
I just subscribed to Legundo with Twitch/YouTube Membership/other method. What now?
As long as you are linked between the Discord, you will receive the Legend rank on leg.gg until November 1st. Once that date is reached, you will need to subscribe through our storefront to continue to receive the Legend rank. If you subscribed through Patreon, you will receive a code around November 1st to be able to purchase the rank for free from the store. However, you will continue to receive benefits through whichever subscription method on the Legundo's Tavern Discord.
Why?
Moving to a dedicated host has introduced costs which have not been covered by our services. In the pursuit of being able to keep the server running separate from just being funded by the Legundo YouTube channel, an alternative method of supporting the server directly needed to be introduced.
Additionally, purchases through the store ACTUALLY go to this. Twitch takes 50%, YouTube takes 30%, and Patreon (which is still the best way to support overall) still takes 10%. These purchases are used to fund the server directly and are separate from anything else Legundo is actively pursuing.
