Beginner's Guide
Welcome to MineRaze! You can build, earn money, complete quests, explore adventure zones, collect custom equipment, and take on dungeons. You do not need to learn everything at once.
1. Start your survival adventure¶
Finish the introductory tutorial, then use /wild to explore the Survival World. Find a place to build and use /sethome so you can return. Use /spawn to visit the hub.
Keep the server resource pack enabled. It displays custom items, pets, furniture, and other visuals. See the Resource Pack guide if it does not load.
2. Visit Harvest Haven (/haven)¶
Harvest Haven is a good place to start. It teaches several of MineRaze's main systems through simple quests.
- Type
/havenand speak to Farmer John. - Harvest fully grown crops and complete one of his farming deliveries.
- Earn Malachite and money, then look around the island.
- Speak to Fisher Finn for fishing quests or Arn the Hunter for combat quests.
- When you have better gear, speak to Khadgar the Wizard about Rootrot Caverns.
The Harvest Merchant exchanges island currency for rewards. Elder Rowan Hearthvale tracks your overall island progress. There are also hidden objectives to discover by exploring.
Read the Harvest Haven guide for activities, events, and rewards.
3. Vote for starter rewards (/vote)¶
Use /vote to earn Vote Crate Keys, money, and Keep Inventory time. Open keys at /warp crates and check your remaining protection time with /keepinv.
