This is a fresh Lifesteal SMP that opened on February 9th so nobody is super far ahead yet. It plays like classic lifesteal where you steal hearts when you kill players and if you die too much you can get wiped.
The server keeps it as vanilla as possible and the spawn area is protected. There is a 10000 by 10000 world border so the world feels contained and active.
One big twist is there are only 3 maces on the whole server and it is first come first serve. It supports all new Java versions and Bedrock players can join too. The server has around 20 to 30 active players and it is growing.

The server also has a main Hub world for traveling between worlds using /spawn or /hub. It has hangout spots plus an amphitheater for community gatherings and events.

Summit Survival is a hard survival server that tries to keep Minecraft feeling simple and normal. It started back in 2020 when the owner and friends wanted something that did not feel stuffed with complicated stuff.
There are no land claims so you can play freely with friends and the world stays open. The server uses a raw gold item economy and players run a shopping district for trading.
The quality of life stuff is kept small with things like spawn sethome and night skip. Keep inventory is off so deaths actually matter.
Staff are not trying to control everything and mostly step in for cheating or griefing. The community is active and people hang out and talk together.
Rules are strict about no hacks and no x ray and no removing lava fog. Do not mess with other players builds or entities without permission and keep some space between bases. Universal duping is not allowed but a few single item dupes like rails and string are allowed. Hate speech and language that pushes real world violence is not allowed.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNo Reset Adult SMP Chill Builders

Ashenreach is a public long term survival server where the world is built to feel grounded and lived in. People can play normal Minecraft and build explore travel and form groups. But it is also made for real choices and conflict and cooperation instead of just grinding overpowered gear.
The big hook is custom relics that are hidden around the map and you can hunt them with a relic tracking system. Relics can be tracked even if they are in a chest sitting in lava or being used by another player. The world is early and it stays open so new players are not locked out.
Enchantments are rare so fights stay more fair and you cannot just rely on maxed netherite. Healing is slower too since it uses UHC regeneration and you need a campfire to heal up. The map has custom terrain with custom structures and clear regions.
SimpleVoiceChat is enabled so you can talk in game. There is also a lands claim plugin for managing permissions and custom ranks in your land. The server has no resets and no ranks or shop. It runs on Java latest version 1.21.11.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
