I found a small server called 30Timers and it feels like survival but with way more chaos. Every 30 seconds you get a random item. It can be totally bad or it can be super rare so you never know what is coming next.
They also built custom stuff around the idea. There is a custom mineral called Chronium with time style effects. A full armor set can sometimes dodge hits and the sword can sometimes hit twice so pvp gets really random.
There are no land claims so bases can be raided and griefed if you do not protect them. To help with that you can buy different turrets in the shop to defend your base.
The shop changes every in game day. The main exploration world is called Space and it has floating islands instead of normal land. Mines also regenerate ores after they get mined out. The server is in alpha so bugs can happen and they want feedback.

EVA SMP is a vanilla style server but it is built around civilization gameplay where groups can rise and fall over time.
Resources are meant to matter so people actually trade team up and sometimes fight. The server pushes a social loop where roles feel important and players depend on each other.
You get EP just by playing like mining farming fishing mob slaying and exploring. EP is used for land claims expanding territory keeping influence and contesting other players claims. If you stop playing your power fades and your land can be challenged.
Where you live matters because different biomes give different buffs for mining farming fishing and even combat and progression.
Progression also goes past normal Minecraft with special abilities custom armor sets and passive buffs tied to skills and activity. Armor is not just protection because it changes how you play.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLumoria Modded SMP Chill Survival
