Arcane-Volt

Arcane Volt is a Kingdoms and classes server, greatly similar to factions, but with a huge twist! It allows claiming of land, creation of nexus, kingdom champions, kingdom turrets and a lot more! Classes allows you to play and experience the server in a whole new way than others! The server is also a No-Grief server, that means people would not be able to TNT or Wither your kingdom randomly, allowing you to make the Kingdom of your dreams! The only way to Raid/Pillage another Kingdom is either through Kingdom Wars, Invasion or defeating their kingdom champion for that piece of land.
