Survival Beginner Guide

Your First Day

Follow the guided four-step tutorial, protect your first base and begin earning skill XP and season points.

First-join tutorial

  1. Use /wild to leave spawn and enter the main Survival world.
  2. Create a protected claim with your golden shovel or /claim.
  3. Open the server shop with /shop.
  4. Open player auctions with /ah.
Tutorial reward: 1 season point, once per season. The tutorial does not give cash or claim blocks. Use /tutorial at any time to repeat your current instruction.

Next, complete daily and weekly challenges to earn money and points. The top milestone prize is $10,000 plus 500 claim blocks, requiring 500 challenge points AND 100 hours of recorded playtime. Read the full challenge and reward guide or use /missions wiki in game.

You start with 100 claim blocks. The five season milestones award another 1,500 combined, with larger rewards later. Claim blocks are no longer awarded automatically each hour.

Mission reminders include clickable links to your objectives and the guide. Use /missions reminders off to mute them and /missions reminders on to restore them.

Set a home

After finding a safe spot, use /sethome. Return later with /home.

Protect valuables

Claim before building. Use /claimlist to check your protected areas and only trust people you know.

Check objectives

Run /missions for your daily, weekly, PvP and season progress.

Open your skills

Run /skills to see levels, XP sources, passive perks, stats and mana abilities.

Good next steps

  • Gather and build in world; skills and normal missions do not progress in spawn or the PvP arena.
  • Use /shop for the server shop and /ah for player auctions.
  • Create a protected chest shop once you have stock and $250 for the setup fee.
  • Use the Survival Map to explore the public world from your browser.
