¶ Season 6 - The World That Heals
The world has changed.
The wounds that once burned fiercely are slowly closing, swallowing the monsters that once seemed endless.
The old cursed cages — those same ones that poured out endless waves of monstrosities — fall silent, their embers consumed by a time that slowly stitches the flesh of the world back together.
The heroes who once left these lands sail once more toward these forgotten shores. Hundreds of days have passed, and time seems to settle into a slower rhythm. They take to the sea, following the coasts and winding through the rivers to discover what remains of this changed world.
Wherever their gaze falls, the past whispers. Along the coasts and oceans, on the ruins of the ancient builders, lie fragments of memory.
The Forgotten Miners, the Wanderer, the Bloodthirsty Captain and Anwë the Mysterious have left traces that only an attentive eye can perceive. Forgotten tales float in the salty air, and the foam of the waves seems to carry echoes of ancient adventures.
But vigilance remains essential. In the shadows, powerful beings roam — silent guardians of a fragile balance. They watch, discreet and unchanging, and remind every hero that boldness must be tempered with caution.
And as the wind fills their sails and the sea stretches out, the world slowly reveals its secrets.
The hoe still holds words that have not yet been spoken. Where memory lingers, patient inscriptions remain: rules carved by those who built, unspoken laws that even the waves respect.
Listen to these carvings — they dictate how to move, how to hold a place, and how the world has changed.

¶ Structures
Many new structures or modifications of existing ones have been introduced. Some contain interesting loot, others mini-bosses.
Some structures are extremely dangerous.
Several structures were created by players during the alpha phase and have been integrated as secret locations or historical references.
Ruins, monuments and scripted locations must be preserved.
Treasures can of course be collected.
¶ Quests and Loot
The main quests are hand-written and tied to the world’s story (e.g. the Captain, the Forgotten Miners).
Some locations contain rare loot protected by powerful entities called Nephîlîm.
Nephîlîm appear in areas charged with history or emotion, often around important chests or relics.
Mini-quests (scripted or discovery-based) were introduced into the world during Season 5:
¶ The Pumpkilager
This quest begins when a player has the misfortune of releasing an evil spirit imprisoned in a pumpkin.
See The Pumpkilager
¶ The Silent Cartographer
During Season 5, this quest was followed by Lily, who discovered the cartographer’s camp as well as the Ancient City. Thanks to this, the Heroes were able to explore the City and defeat the terrifying Warden.
Other elements of this quest remain to be discovered.
See: The Silent Cartographer

¶ Claims
“Claims” allow players to claim an area (chunk, 16×16) or several areas, adjacent or not, so that these areas are accessible only to them and (if they wish) their team or allies.
Every hero must choose a base at the start and claim an area.
Claims must be separated by at least 4 chunks (taxicab distance).
Example: 4 chunks to the east, or 2 chunks west + 2 chunks north.
It is possible to:
- Claim up to 4 chunks. The number of claims will increase as the season progresses and as players build.
- Create multiple subclaims, with names, colours and conditions.
- Create teams (max 4 players) and define allied teams to manage permissions and access.
To learn how to use claims, see:
Claims / Open Parties & Claims
Claims are only valid for a certain duration (from 1 to 3 months, depending on server activity). An inactive player will see their claims automatically turned into Protected Build then Wilderness.
It is forbidden to claim public areas, and it is forbidden to claim an area to prevent a player from finishing a build or leaving a zone.
¶ Patches
2026-06-25- The
mobGriefingrule was set back tofalse. Contact the admin if you need to breed villagers. - The error message that appeared next to the invisible walls delimiting the area has been removed. Throwable items can now be used in the chunks adjacent to the walls.
- The
2026-08-12- The recipe “Quartz Block ← Bone Block + Flint” now produces 3× instead of 1× Quartz Block.
- The recipe “Crying Obsidian ← Obsidian + Lapis Lazuli Block” now produces 3× instead of 1× Crying Obsidian.
- The
mobGriefingrule was set back totrue.
2026-08-19- Day/night transition is now accelerated over a few seconds instead of being instantaneous, allowing farms and crops to continue working during the night.
- Sneaking no longer protects against damage from magma blocks.
- Chickens no longer give birth directly to chicks; they now lay an egg when breeding, with a 50 % chance of hatching (vs 1/8 in Vanilla).
- Chickens no longer lay eggs naturally.
2026-08-20- The enchantment level cost at the anvil has been revised downward for items combining multiple enchantments or books: the cost now depends on the final content of the item rather than the number of combinations performed. This change may be revised if it causes balance issues.
2026-08-22- Mob spawn quotas (monsters, creatures, aquatic life, etc.) have been increased to restore some dynamism to the server: many areas had become almost empty, with very few natural spawns.
- Glow squids can now only spawn in deep oceans, while normal squids can spawn in all ocean types.
2026-08-26- A Chest or Barrel containing loot now gives an independent roll to each player, once each. Once a player has opened a loot chest and closed the interface, that same chest is replaced by a brand new one, ready for the next player. Only one player can have the chest open at a time; you must wait for them to close their interface before you can open it.
- Breaking a loot chest instead of opening it normally (to force a drop) no longer works: the contents are emptied before the chest drops, and a public message is sent to the server. This includes never-opened chests, already-opened chests, or chests currently open by someone else. Consider this griefing.
2026-08-27- The level cap of most enchantments — those whose effect actually scales — has been raised, while remaining reasonable for now (+1 in general).
2026-08-28- Crops grow faster during rain.

I: Only during a thunderstorm (replaces Channeling). - Level
II: Also works in the rain. - Level

- The Thundering enchantment (lightning that replaces 50 % of attacks) has been nerfed:
- The enchantment only works outdoors (the sky must be visible above the target).

- Level
I: Only during a thunderstorm. - Level
II: Also works in the rain. - Level
III(not available as a book): Works in any weather.
- Level
The conversion rate Log → Charcoal during a forest fire has been revised downward. A reduction of half to bring progression time back to a more reasonable pace.
This mechanic had been discovered by some players as a fast source of emeralds and experience (via trading with the Fisherman at the Castle), to the point of allowing a full enchanted set in less than 2 days of play.
The rate goes from 5.36 charcoal/log (on average) to 2.7 charcoal/log.
- New enchantment Thunderbolt (trident, max: II+): Summons lightning on the target (the sky must be visible above the target). Suggested by Obsi.
2026-09-05- The loot table of spawners has been reworked. Rewards rebalanced to avoid duplicates with already easily accessible resources and to offer items that are otherwise hard to obtain.
