I found this factions server called Orix MC and it is built around grinding not paying. The god sets are not locked behind a paywall. You can actually grind them by fishing and playing a lot.
The server has custom sets and god sets. There are dungeons with custom bosses. There are mines where you can earn money.
There is a KOTH arena for big fights. You can get really good loot from fishing at warp fishing. There are also daily rewards and other stuff to discover.
The server feels like it wants you to play and grind instead of swiping a card. If you like factions and working for your gear this one fits that style.
