Update 3 is one of the earliest updates to
Blox Fruits, with the stated objective of balancing the game while adding content. It raises the maximum level from 500 to 650, introduces the
String and
Rumble fruits, and most importantly two mechanics that still structure the game today:
Observation (the ancestor of Instinct) and
Aura progression tiers.
