Features

The following is an extensive list of features (arranged in alphabetical order) that help shape the experience on survival. If you are only interested in the key features, you may check them out directly here.

Auctions

Auctions serve as one of the fastest means to sell off items in your possession. Unlocked for all ranks, it offers an interactive and competitive means of selling/buying items! The command syntax for starting an auction can be found in-game by typing the /auction command.

Caretaker (Temporarily Disabled)

Caretaker is an NPC chatbot that contains canned responses to certain questions/conversations. It is able to reply commonly asked questions and hold fun conversations to a limited extend. It is continually updated with new features/updates. You will also find him hanging out at spawn like below:

Chestshops

Chestshops are one of the most traditional means of selling items. Players use a sign and chest to create a simple shop where others can buy/sell from. The format for creating a shop through a sign is shown in the example selling 1 dirt for $500 below:

The final result would then be a sign placed on the chest:

Claiming

Claiming allows players to protect their own land. This is especially important and players should pay heed to always claim where they wish to build at. While griefing is against the rules, admins will not always be able to restore grief lands and players are still expected to claim their entire builds (otherwise this defeats the purpose of claimblocks). Upon a successful claim, you will see temporary markings as shown below to highlight where you have claimed.

Crates

Crates are one of the commonly used features by all players and can be found directly in front of spawn. Survival contains 5 types of crates which includes vote, superior, rare, mythical and corrupted. Keys to vote crates are obtained through daily voting while the keys to rare and mythical crates are obtained through the server webstore. Keys may also be won through crates, events or obtained via the global currency at /tavern store. Players may left-click the crates in-game to view their list of rewards. An image of /warp crates can be seen below:

Custom Structures

For the explorers out there, our survival hides plenty of custom unique structures (over 150+!) scattered across overworld, nether and even the end! These structures are guarded by mobs and contain loots to reward you for a hard day of work! You can even claim one of these to show them off as your home. Look below to see what you may run into!

Discord

The discord server has dedicated chat channels that are linked with the chats in-game. However, to be able to chat through discord into minecraft, players will first need to link their accounts. This can be done through typing /discord link while in the hub server (where you login). Following which, a 4 digit code will be received that needs to be sent to our caretaker bot on discord. Upon typing /discord link, you'll see the following code below:

You may then send it to our discord bot Chat#2346 on discord^^

Dungeons

A very dangerous place crawling with elite mobs, the dungeon is a place only meant for the courageous, adventurous and the treasure seekers. New dungeons are typically unravelled every few months and follows the progression of the lore. The list of known dungeons can be found here.

Elite Mobs

Elite mobs are powerful variants of minecraft mobs that spawn alongside normal mobs. Their levels depend on the type of gear you are wearing and the number of players near each other. They drop custom loots which will come in handy when you fight elite bosses that also spawn at random intervals! More information about elite mobs can be found in their wiki here. An example of an elite evoker is shown below!

You may access several elite mob values to take actions such as upgrading your elite mobs rank or purchasing items from shop. The list of commands are as below:

  • /ag - guild rank selection
  • /em checktier - to check your tier
  • /em shop - buy or sell em items
  • /em customshop - shop for charms
  • /em quest - check your quests
  • /em pay - to transfer elite coins to other players (with tax!)

Alternatively, you may type /em to bring up the menu as shown below:

Essentials

Love a little convenience? The server comes with essential commands such as /tpa, /sethome and /msg to allow you to easily move between important locations and communicate or meet up with others! It also comes with weekly kits that contain miscellaneous items to aid you in your adventure!

Events

Events are held every 1-2 weeks at /warp party. On certain occasions, events may be held in a separate /events server as well. Games range from musical chairs to mob catching to boat racing!

Fishing

Not a fan of fighting and adventure all day long? Don't fret! Fishing on TavernCraft is highly customised to provide players with a unique fishing experience. Catch fishes of different tiers, upgrade your rods and participate in fishing tournaments all while staying away from danger! For more information on fishing features, please read here.

Jobs

Jobs is one of the earliest and fastest way of earning money. Players may view the type of jobs available with /jobs browse and pick one to join with /jobs join <job name>. Novices are able to join up to a maximum of one job. Lords and above are able to join up to 2 jobs. Gods and above may join up to 3 jobs.

Lores

The server has a long history that is intricately connected with various events. Every detail makes subtle references to the actual happenings on the server but remains friendly for new players to consume. For the canon version of the lore, please refer to the read here.

MCMMO

MCMMO allows players to level up the skills for whatever they are doing. For example, levelling up herbalism through farming will gradually increase the drop rates of your crops. Players may also right click before performing certain actions to activate skills for a brief period of time (such as treefeller). As you progress, you can see a progress above your screen!

Pets

Pets primarily serve as companions for players, providing a few utility functions such as the ability to disguise and ride the pet. Occasionally, themed pet contests will be held where the public votes on the players who best show off their pets with a tagline to match the theme.

Player Shops

Player shops (accessible with /warp playershop) is a common marketplace for players to build their shops and sell items. Players who are interested in renting a plot will have to fork out an upfront fee and subsequently, a weekly rent depending on the type of the plot. Plots are currently divided into the 3 tiers with the following weekly rental costs:

  • Emerald ($10000)
  • Gold ($8000)
  • Iron ($5000)

Due to the limited number of plots, players who meet either of the following conditions will have to be evicted (whole plot wiped and re-opened to public for renting)

  • Failing 2 payments in a row (insufficient /balance)
  • Going inactive for extended periods (>1 month)

Below is an image of the player plots when it is fresh during server release!

PvP

As our survival is not primarily a PvP server, PvP is enabled only in /warp pvp. Players are completely safe from others everywhere else in the world (though not from the elite mobs!).

Ranks

Ranks are a global feature and apply across all gamemodes on the server (including in new gamemodes). Rankup is done via the Tavern Coins currency that is global across the network. It will persist through any form of resets, lasting for as long as the server is still alive. Perks regarding each rank may be found in the FAQ and may be subjected to changes/revisions. The menu of /rankup or /tc store is as shown below:

Reputation Points

Coming Soon!

Spawners

Spawners may be mined with a silktouch pickaxe by players ranked apprentice and above. Note that mining natural spawners incur a flat cost of $10000. Subsequent breaking of placed spawners are then free! P.S. The cost has been implemented to balance out the higher spawner counts coming from the custom structures. Some spawners are also available in /tavern store which uses the /tavern coins currency. Lastly, spawners may also be obtained through the extremely rare corrupted crate.

Tavern Coins

Tavern Coins is a global currency that can be spent at /tavern store. It is the primary method for players to rank up and players may currently obtain it either through voting on at least 1 vote site on a day (max 1 from voting per day), crates (with a very low chance) or by participating in events. A small group of survival-specific items such as keys/spawners are also available in the store, subject to a monthly limit that resets at the start of each month.

Pro-tip: You get 10 Tavern Coins immediately upon linking your discord account at /hub!

Trivia

Every hour, a trivia event kicks off on our survival server with interesting questions about the server! Not only do you have to be correct, you have to be fast! The top 3 players who win the most number of rounds will receive in-game rewards for their efforts! So how well do you know the server? :-P

Voting

Voting on the server gives daily rewards including money, claimblocks, vote key and elite coins. The links to the 5 vote sites are as below:

Warps

Warps refer to a few locations where players may easily get to. The current warps include celebration, crates, donator, food, guild, help, museum, party, pvp, shop, playershops and staff.

Webstore

The webstore is where players may purchase fun and exciting in-game items ranging from pets, event drops and to crate keys. Specific information regarding the items sold may be found directly at the store whose link may be found here.

Wild

The /wild or /rtp command is the fastest way to quickly begin your survival adventure. It has a cooldown of 20 minutes to prevent repeated use of it for scouting out grounds for explorations. As an alternative, you may also swim/walk away from spawn to enter the survival world.

World Items

The most coveted items on the server, the world items are a collection of extremely powerful equipments that remain closely guarded in the museum. For over a year, it was believed that a total of 8 world items existed around the world. However, as of 17th August 2021, the existence of the 9th world item has been confirmed. It remains the only world item that has yet to be obtained following a close encounter with its holder, nicknamed the MoonBorn of the blood red forest.

As of 7th September 2022, all world items in our possession are near full restoration from partial corruption due to a surprise attack carried out by the Lord of the Sewers (La Shik' Va). It is believed that rare old natural elements are key ingredients for the final repairs of these items. A full explanation on each world item can be found here.
