ArcticMC is a brand new survival server that mixes Towny and faction style play. It feels chill but you can still fight for land and make alliances or just do your own thing.
PVP matters here and they try to keep it fair with an honor system that is explained in their rules. There is also McMMO so you level up skills while you play and unlock abilities later.
The world uses Tectonic generation so the terrain looks big and realistic with mountains and valleys. They also have custom items and furniture that is entity based so they plan limits to help with lag.
The community vibe is calm and friendly so it seems good if you want to build explore grind or just hang out.
