The world of Blox Fruits is buzzing with excitement about upcoming updates bringing major reworks, new fruits and characters, and some creative fan concepts. As an avid player, I’ve analyzed all the juicy details about these patches to give my breakdown for fellow gamers. Read on for the inside scoop!
Transforming the Meta with New Fruits
As a dragon-fruit hunter and battle strategist, I’m particularly excited for the new mythical Zoan-types coming. These beast forms enhance strength and defense for top-tier destroying capabilities that will shake up PVP and boss raid meta.
For example, the Smoke-Smoke fruit allows transforming into an ethereal smoke body making you impossible to grab. It’s the evolution of prior intangibility powers by retaining high speed movement to combo deadly rapid attacks. I predict builds utilizing this mobility and damage will rise to the top ranks.
The Paint-Paint fruit also catches my eye – splashing paint to blind and slowing opponents creates openings to follow up. I’ve come up with some crazy combos staggering these debuffs with heavy techniques from muscle fruits like Rhino to devastate blinded targets. Very Sun Tzu “Art of War” inspired!
And that’s just the early preview options – based on prior expansion rates, I estimate we’ll see around 25 total new fruits at varying rarities added across 2023.
My Epic Fail and Success Hunting the Mythicals
Take it from a battle-hardened fruit hunter who’s found almost all the legendries – actually catching one of these rare mythic Zoans takes perseverance and a bit of luck!
I still have nightmares about the time I finally spotted the 0.1% Dragon fruit after 72 straight hours grinding. Exhausted but elated, I decided to show off and test it on a random group at the tavern – only to get 360 no-scoped by a shock cannon and lose it instantly. 💀
But you live and learn! Now when I scored mythic Bomb after meticulous planning I booked it straight to my secret treasure safehouse. Only once secured in an obby maze guarded by my fleet did I finally relax and revel in its godly explosive power.
The takeaway – with great fruit comes even greater responsibility not to lose it! But the journey to attain their might is half the fun.
Community Creations Run Wild
Beyond the official goodies, fan creators cook up ambitious rework visions. I adore clever YouTuber Kit’s Kitsune fruit allowing foxy transformations and magical attacks. Its spiritual zen Buddhist flair fits the game aesthetic beautifully.
Seeing the enthused reactions to these fan concepts shows the developers’ lively engagement with us players. I’m part of the Discord channel pitching them new ideas monthly. While far-fetched wishes like a planet-busting Galick Gun likely won’t manifest, I believe our passion inspires the devs towards innovation.
They mentioned in the recent Reddit AMA there are plans for a creative contest allowing chosen player-made fruits into the official canon! Even if not selected, flexing our design muscles invariably lifts the quality floor. It’s a rising tide of creativity that floats all boats.
My Take on Future Balance Changes
As both a top 1% PVP duelist and raid leader organizing boss hunts, I have some opinions on the evolving ability balance changes needed alongside new fruits…
