Changelog
Here is your list of changes for this reset. I'd recommend giving it a good read-over to make sure you're familiar with everything you're going to see.
⚙️ Updated! Server's version to 1.17
As mentioned above, it took a lot of time, more time than expected, to have all of our plugins and systems work with the 1.17 version. As everyone is now aware, we are running survival on multiple servers instead of one, which made things a bit more complex, but we got it all to work, and we can now say that we will have a brand new survival server containing the 1.17 version.
You will now be able to enjoy all of the newest blocks, mobs, and features that have been added within the latest update, this update adds amethyst geodes along with amethyst blocks and items, copper ore and its derived forms, deepslate and its variants, and the goat, glow squid and axolotl mobs and much more.
A reset was needed to update all the worlds with the brand new generated worlds.
📡 Updated! Server's Sync
As many are aware, we introduced a brand new system behind survival, we will keep using this setup on this brand new reset. It had its problems at the beginning but it's now stable and a great way to provide you the best performance possible.
Everything can however have a couple of improvements and that is what we did this reset. We updated a couple of things and it should be smoother:
  • Fixed the tablist.
  • Changed the inventory sync so it is less buggy, and your inventory now gets updated faster when switching worlds.
  • And much more changes.
🏛️ New! Spawn
We have brought a brand new spawn! There are various buildings that have NPC's such as Auctionhouse, Blackmarket, Travellermerchant, etc.
You cannot walk out from the spawn into the wilderness but there is a big portal right in front of the spawn point that will teleport you to a random location in the wilderness on a random world that you can select.
📋New! Help Menu
For brand new players it can be very confusing on how to start your survival journey, as we do not offer the same system as all other servers do, because of this, it can be good for the new players to have all the information about the server and how it works within a nicely displayed menu.
Within the menu, it will explain we are using multiple servers to run survival, that not everything is possible between the world, and of course, it will also explain the features we have!
As it can be kinda confusing for new players, we have added a help item within your Hotbar, this help item will help you with your survival journey and explains all the features we offer.
This is why we have replaced the book guide with a menu since it can display a lot more useful information. The menu has been will provide you with even more information than we could before with the book and details to help you with all the amazing features we offer in survival.
💰 Updated! Blackmarket & Travel merchant
We have made sure to update the Blackmarket, as well as the Travel merchant. This is due to the high potential these two features have, therefore we wanted to exploit its potential to give you all a better experience. Within this new update, we have added an option to sell and buy more items at once.
BlackMarket Changes
Sell Options
We have added an option to sell x64 items, as well as an option to sell your entire inventory.

  • Iron Ore - Previously: $12.92 - Now: $6.46
  • Spider Eye - Previously: $3.96 - Now: $1.98
  • Ender Pearls - Previously: $5.68 - Now: $2.84
TravelMerchant Changes
Buy Options
We have added an option to buy x64 items, as well as an option to buy a full inventory.

📦 Updated! Crates
For this new season, we have decided to look over the crates, and we have implemented some new rewards, as well as we have removed other ones, these are the following:
  • Gravestones will be item holder that holds players items in it when they die - Gravestones have been added to Vote and Epic crates.
  • Removed Advertisement Gems from Unique and Godly Crates.
  • Gold coins are added into Crates so there can be other ways to get gold coins instead of Quests only.
  • Rename tags added to vote & epic crates.
  • A seasonal crate has been added.
  • Armor from godly and epic crates are now 1 set instead of separate items.
🔮 Updated! MysteryWizard
Not only have we rebalanced the traveling merchant, the BlackMarket, and the crates, we also reworked all the rewards for the mystery wizard, prices have been changed, some items have been removed, and brand new items have been added.
While we were at it we also fixed a couple of bugs with the mystery wizard, some of which are the following:
  • Fixed the Gold coin issue when you buy something you lose all your Gold coins.
  • Removed Advertisement Star and Shulker Boxes, they're not worth to buy and Mystery Wizard is supposed to sell rarer items.
  • Added More Rare Items to the Mystery Wizard: Killmessages/Kill colors ,Vouchers , Safari nets , Scrolls and maybe even Class Containers (/gkit) and Keys.
  • Rebalanced Items on the Mystery Wizard: The Mystery wizard is currently selling 1 elytra for 300 gold coins, and it is near impossible to get 300 coins, and it's not worth buying.
🪙 Updated! Auction House
The auction house received an update and we have made some significant improvements to the auction house. We will be giving you a lot more control over your own auctions by adding the following features.
Stock
Right now you can only list one item at a time or a full stack for a set price.
Buying more items
Right now you can only list one item at a time or a full stack for a set price.
Removed categories
Removed a couple of not possible categories like spawners.
Bidding enabled
Not only have we added the features above we also fixed a bug with the bidding and have enabled the bidding system.
💎 Updated! Playershops
Given the fact that we have implemented the 1.17 version to this latest season, we have made sure to add all of the new 1.17 items and categories to the shops.
We have also made sure to fix all of the dupe issues within the playershops, and the empty advertised shops will no longer be visible within /shop.
📝 Updated! Renaming
We have updated the item renaming, and you are now able to use it on multiple other items! These items are the following: Shulker Boxes, Shears, Golden Tools, Elytras, Banners, Totems, Maps.
  • We have fixed the renaming of golden weapons which was not working previously.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Updated! Clans
We have updated the clans and you will now be able to complete daily and weekly quests with your clan that will help you level up your clan, not only this you will also receive gold coins that you can use for clan buffs.
Clan Buffs
  • Haste 1 - 25 Currency
  • Haste 2 - 45 Currency
  • Speed 1 - 35 Currency
  • Speed 2 - 50 Currency

    These Buffs will be disabled in PvP
📊 Change! Rebalance of player levels
This reset we took the time to completely rework the player levels and start from scratch again, all the levels were removed and started from zero once again. A lot of new tasks with new rewards have been added, and the progress also will make a lot more sense this reset.
  • 1-10 - Basic missions: Some mining, Some farming animals/crops, crafting items.
  • 11-20 - Same as the previous but a little harder + auctions and votes.
  • 21-29 - An introduction to the nether, mixed with previous grind missions.
  • 30-39 - An introduction to the end, with more nether missions.
  • 40-49 - Advanced missions from the previous 2 sets of levels (mining, breeding/farmings, crafting).
  • 50-75 - Grind missions with good rewards.
🗻 Worlds
As mentioned above, we will keep using the world's system, so with this new reset, there will be a total of 5 servers running to make all of this possible, just like the current server. All of the worlds were however updated, and have the brand new 1.17 generated structures, mobs, and blocks within the worlds. Some exciting new updates for you to explore! Although we have kept the same world system, we have decided to implement a few changes, which are the following:
  • Enabled claiming within the nether.
  • Changed the endworld border size.
  • Added a nether within the resourceworld.
All of the worlds which will be present for this season will be listed below.
Spawn World
This will be the central place of the server, this is the server where everyone will join for the first time. Here you will be able to find the crates, shop NPCs, the black market, and much more. Within this world, you can use the command /wild or jump into the portal to go to the other worlds.
Yellow World, Blue World & Red World
This is a Vanilla 1.17 generated world where you can start your survival journey. Within this world you can claim, build, make shops, and much more without being worried about it getting destroyed. Each server will also have its own nether that can be entered by making a nether portal, this means there will be a yellow nether, red nether and blue nether
  • The world border is 20,000 for the overworld and 10,000 for the nether. Please note this is both positive and negative X.
Resource World
This world will reset every seven days. Claiming inside this world is disabled, and building in this world is not recommended since it will be resetting often. As the name suggests, this world can be used for resources only. It will also have its own nether this season that resets with it every 7 days.
End World
We have disabled the use of end portals within the worlds. You can enter the end world through a portal located at the spawn. However, there is a catch... You must meet the requirements to enter!
Each world will have its own indicator, these are the following:
❖ This on the tablist / chat messages indicates you're in the Spawnworld
🔴 This on the tablist / chat messages indicates you're in the RedWorld
🔵 This on the tablist / chat messages indicates you're in the BlueWorld
❁ This on the tablist / chat messages indicates you're in the ResourceWorld
❖ This on the tablist / chat messages indicates you're in the EndWorld

❓Question and Answers
Main Question here?
Survival just needed a reset, it wasn't updated for months and the performance was terrible. So to make survival working again was a reset required. So here it is a fresh new survival with updates!
This means all claims, items, money and the map will be reset. Nothing will be kept leftover from the previous map. Of course, all purchases will be reissued so nobody will be out of pocket in that regard. I know this must be a disappointing revelation for a lot of you, but think about the exciting new changes, the new alliances you can forge, the new map, the new features, and updates the different kinds of gameplay and style being provided with this update will surely make it a worth-while and exciting reset!
Below you can find what you will lose and one for what you will keep
What will I keep?
  • Purchased Ranks & Rank Upgrades
  • Purchased Perks
  • Won out of crates commands/ranks
What will I lose?
  • Your claims and builds.
  • All items in your inventory and ender chest
  • Any currencies such as money and exp
  • Chatcolor permissions.


We hope to see you on our new Survival server soon!
If you have feedback or any suggestion, let us know we'd love to make this as good as we can.

I hope there will be no bug but if you find any bug please reset it once again like before. Mainly bug is killing survival economy so please respond asap when survival economy-related issue occurs. Thank you so much for your time to improve and give us(players) a nice environment to spend our time and learn new experiences of 1.17

This new season is looking amazing so far, I'm particularly excited about the unique and God crates no longer having those awful ad gems, and armor being in sets. Shulkers being immune to clear lag is also a very nice addition. All in all, it seems we're getting a lot of what we've been requesting.

Here's to a fun and refreshing season.
