Introduction

Many of you already know me, but for those that don't I am a Titan rank on Pika, and someone who also plays with a lot of other Titans/Champions; and during my time as Titan and in being with other high-rank players, there is at least one person in just about every game/lobby who begs for a rank/gold. This also happens very often in my Discord DMs, and just the Discord server in general. Everyone has something they really want, but sometimes getting enough money to afford it can be a big roadblock. But it doesn't have to be that way. This guide will provide you with the tools you'll need to obtain anything on the Pika Store (or perhaps other items of value) without paying a single cent.

1) Turnaways

All too often, I see players hopping in lobbies and in different discord communities asking high-ranked players for ranks or gold. During my time on Pika, I've personally never seen this method work. If you wish not to follow the advice I'm about to provide, please at least know this: If you're annoying others (by continually begging your family, friends, or peers across PikaNetwork), you will just be ignored. Members of any community greatly frown upon begging and you'll be dismissed as a spammer if you choose to beg.

I'm glad we got that out of the way.

2) What You'll Need

In order to proceed to the next steps of this guide, you will ideally need at least one the following materials:
  • A family member
  • A neighbor
  • A friend
  • A friendly stranger
If you don't have any of these in your immediate area, you're welcome to go outside and find one. If you still don't have any one person specifically, that's perfectly fine; you can still progress the guide if your target is a group of people. If that's the case, you should skip to section 4 ("Small Businesses").

3) Deals

Making deals with people is one of the best ways to earn yourself stuff. A deal works like this. Let's say Person A wants a rank on Pika and Person B needs their lawn mowed. Person A will mow Person B's lawn, and in exchange, Person B will give money in return for Person A. Just like that Person A got a free rank. Easy.

If you need ideas, here is a non-exhaustive list of deals you may be able to make with family, friends, or neighbors in exchange for some cash to use in the store:

Family:
  • Do the laundry
  • Wash dishes
  • Clean the floor (through the use of a vacuum machine or other chemically-based means)
  • Prepare beds
  • If you're younger, for your parents, strive for a higher-than-usual grade in school. Parents love this
  • Mow the lawn
  • Shovel if it's winter
  • If you have a pet:
    • Walk the pet
    • Feed the pet
Many of these can also be applied to your neighbors. You can also make neighbor-specific deals.

Neighbors:
  • Babysit
  • Pet-sit
  • Mow the lawn
  • Shovel if it's winter and if it snows
  • Pressure-wash their driveway
  • Throw together a lemonade stand to earn cash. I'll cover this a bit more later in this thread
  • You know your neighbors better than I do, go talk to them and ask if there's anything you can do
Friends:
  • Perform (safe) dares, like juggling sticks for 30 seconds or beating a friend in a race for money
  • Stop by at their house and do some house work
  • Again, you know your friends and their families better than I do - reach out to them
You can use your connections with family, friends, and neighbors to your advantage to earn yourself enough money to afford the item of your choosing.

4) Small Businesses

A year or so ago, some kids down the street put up a lemonade stand and charged a dollar or so per cup. It isn't even a busy street, yet they still made plenty of money from it, and you can, too. This is just one of many different small business ideas you can do to make money. Once you have enough physical money, use it to make a purchase. Or if you are young enough, ask a parent to make the purchase for you and give them the money.

If you need ideas, here are some businesses you could run:
  • Lemonade stand
  • Cookie stand
  • Juice stand
Feel free to get creative with it.

5) Voting

It is possible to work your way up the ranks completely free through the voting mechanic. You see, whenever you reach a certain amount of votes you are rewarded with Iron. Iron is a temporary currency and can be used to purchase in-game items without needing to buy gold. It is worth noting that not all gold purchases can be made using iron, and that some purchases might be too expensive to afford just off of the iron obtained by voting. You can vote for the server at the link here, and vote for the discord bot here.

On top of the iron system, you also get rewarded with Vote Crate Keys. These vote crate keys can be used to open vote crates. If you're lucky enough you can receive a rank in just about any game mode through these vote crates. Some game modes offer permanent ranks from these crates, and some offer temporary/seasonal ranks.

6) Giveaways/Events

The next method I would like to talk about is winning a giveaway or event. There are many different giveaways/events you can try to enter and win in the Pika Community. I will list a few discords in which they host these:
  • PikaNetwork - Official Pika Discord, join HERE.
  • OP Lifesteal - Unofficial OPLS Community, join HERE.
  • TREN - Unofficial Community, join HERE.
  • Nexus - Unofficial Community, join HERE.
For this method, the rewards can vary, along with event/challenge difficulty. But it is always worth entering a giveaway whenever announced, or trying to compete in an event/challenge. You never know what can happen!

7) Karma

Now for the last method for me to bring up, karma. If you are a genuine person, who is very nice to others, very friendly, and tries to help other players, there is a chance someone will decide to gift you a rank. I have personally been gifted Captain rank in OP Prison by a high-ranking player who noticed me being active and helpful in chat. I have also seen people gift others ranks just because they are a nice person who never begged, was always kind, and helpful to others. Everyone knows the golden rule, treat others the way you want to be treated. While this can end up with another kind player gifting you a rank, you should also just maintain being respectful without just the intention of being gifted.

Conclusion

I hope you find this guide helpful! I assure you that if you put in the effort to reach out to friends, family, and other peers to perform a service, or sell food or drinks, you'll have no problems getting the item you seek.

Third-Party Trading is against the rules and can result in you being banned. This is explained as: Doing trades which involve the gold currency of PikaNetwork or items from our official store is allowed provided that no accounts, items/currencies/other goods on other platforms/Minecraft servers or real money/goods are involved.

This means that you are not allowed to do trades in which people give you gold/ranks in exchange for an item of your own. It is however allowed to follow the methods in this list in which you work for money, and then use that money to purchase something from the store.

Yeah Hypixel is really bad with the amount of people begging, especially whenever the Blue plusses first came out.

This guide is very nice for so many people but doesn't fits me:
  • Turnaways- Never got anything nor I am supposed to beg other.
  • What you will need- Got nothing. I have trusted people but none of them play PikaNetwork nor supposed to give money for this.
  • Deals- I am so bad at doing deals i don't know why but yes.
  • Small Business- Don't got idea number 2 so don't possible. Even yes I am so lazy to do it.
  • Voting- I am not a bot who will login on PikaNetwork and do /vote everyday so lazy to do it and very slow process and don't want to play like this.
  • Giveaway/Event- my luck is worst in this world and my skills are even worst except redstone but unfortunately there is nothing related with redstone on PikaNetwork.
  • Karma- Unfortunately, i never done a single Nice work as far as i remember.

Conclusion: this guide doesn't made for me. And make sure to give me the reward most lame joke ever existed in the forums.
