    It may be still a week or three before the main server is updated to 1.9, a thread update will be posted when a date is more certain. In the meanwhile, a solution is being worked on to allow 1.9 connections to at least the lobby server.

    Date posted at Update to 1.9 thread.

    The above noted, here's what to expect when the main server can be updated.

    Lokai
    Traditionally, major updates involve expanding the map of the main world to accommodate new features. With this update, most new blocks and items appear in the end world, not the over world. All new items will be obtainable without Lokai being expanded.

    Essalo
    As the official end world for Pearl, Essalo will be reset during or shortly after the upgrade to 1.9. Please remove anything valued immediately, rather than waiting until the last minute. With being reset, Essalo will reflect the new land generation of Minecraft end worlds, including containing the special treasures that can be found on the distant islands.

    Ateph
    While I cannot provide much details currently, the land generation may be adjusted to include the new blocks. As Ateph is volatile by nature, without including Minecraft updates, please ensure you are not leaving anything valued in Ateph. This includes that you should not rely on "home" being safe.

    Dasmir
    No changes are planned, as the 1.9 update doesn't add anything specific to the nether.


    Crafting
    1.9 introduces some changes to crafting, including adding the recipe for shields and removing the recipe for enchanted golden apples. All recipe changes will be applied to Pearl. Now is a good time to prepare banners for decorating your shields and load up on Notch apples. ;)

    Creatures
    Monsters have had their AI updated, bringing them up to a Pearl-worthy level of dangerous. All combat changes will be applied to the server.

    Misc
    Even with a lot of activity going into updating the server software, it will be especially prone to bugs during the first few weeks. Staff appreciate the patience members can give while sorting through the problems. :)

    Information about all of the Minecraft 1.9 changes are on the Gamepedia Minecraft wiki.

    I have a quick question that I need to ask. So naturally in the 1.9 update, there is only 1 dragon head ever, it spawns on the end ship, on the front, are you gonna make it so there is more than one somehow?

    Mojang made that multiple ships can generate in the end world and it is possible for more than one to have a dragon head.

    My game automatically updated to 1.9 with the release and I haven't been able to take the time to download a client compatible with the server's 1.8 configuration (or figure out if that's possible... I'm sure it is). So, this just means I haven't been able to connect to Pearl at all this month. Please don't sell my shop! ;)

    I'm looking forward to the server update so I can connect again. I'll keep my fingers crossed it comes soon, though I understand necessary delays to get the kinks worked out.

    EDIT: Ignore all of the above. I saw Cyber's post in a different thread. I'll try that tonight and see if I can get connected.
