This server feels like a chill SMP where people actually talk and help each other. It runs hard difficulty and has Java and Bedrock players together so you do not need a Java account to join. It is on the latest version with backwards compatibility so it feels updated but also stable.
The world is survival based and there is no grief so your builds are safe. You can claim land using ProtectionStones and use homes and sethome and tpa stuff to move around. There is random teleport in the overworld so exploring new places is pretty easy.
Combat is mostly in one main PvP arena and it has keep inventory there so you can fight without losing everything. There are custom enchantments and a bartering style economy with server shops and a public market. There are tutorial warps too so new players do not get lost.
On Sundays you can fly for free in the overworld which makes building and exploring way easier. There is also Minecraft and Discord chat integration so you can still talk to people when you are not in game. The staff seems responsive and there is even homework help on the Discord which is kind of funny but also useful.
Overall it feels like a friendly SMP with some cool upgrades but still simple enough that you can just log in and play without needing to learn a bunch of crazy plugins.
