This is a custom SMP that feels kind of like lifesteal but more forgiving and honestly pretty cool.
The whole server is built around a special item called essence. You can not craft it at all. You only get essence by killing other players or by harvesting their dead bodies. So PVP actually matters a lot here.
When you collect enough essence you unlock strong abilities. You can get stuff like more speed more strength fire resistance and even extra hearts. So the more you risk and fight the stronger your character can become.
If you lose too much essence it is not game over but it does hurt. Dying a lot gives you debuffs like weakness and slowness. So you want to play smart and not just jump into every fight without thinking.
The server is made for Minecraft Java 1.21.11 and uses a fully custom plugin. It is whitelist only so you need to send a short application first. It is mostly aimed at content creators but normal players can still get in because they want more people for launch.
From what I can tell the vibe is competitive but still more chill than normal lifesteal. You can fight and hunt each other but you are not instantly ruined forever if you die.

I found Toms3 and it is a cracked anarchy server that came back after being closed for years with a brand new world. It is inspired by the big anarchy style servers and it is made to run for a long time.

It stays close to vanilla with only small changes to help stability. There is no tpa and no home so you have to travel the hard way.
There is a separate authentication server. Modified clients are allowed but a strict anti cheat blocks movement stuff like flight and elytrafly and timer style advantages.

PurpleSMP is a small survival server that is meant to feel simple but still polished. It is mostly PVE and it is crossplay so you can join from different devices.
The main extra thing here is the skills plugin that makes grinding feel better. There is a player run economy with no server shops and no currency so trading is up to the players.
You can claim land to protect your builds and there are player vaults for extra storage. PvP is off by default and you can toggle it if you only want to fight with friends.
The staff takes rules seriously and they log blocks so grief is easier to catch. They also back up your inventory on join leave and death so lost items can be checked and restored when it is a rule issue. There is anti cheat and staff gets alerts when it flags.
There is no world border so you can travel far and find untouched land. The server started as friends only in October 2025 and opened to the public in December 2025.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVanilla Survival SMP With Builders And PVP
