Add the server
Use play.carvermc.net in Minecraft Java Edition. You do not need a custom port.
Official player guide
Your first session.
Start with the Journey, then settle in. Here are the commands and details you’ll need along the way.
First session
Your first hour, step by step.
The Journey teaches the server in-game. These six steps show you where to begin.
Start the Journey
Run /quests and open the six-part Journey. You can track up to three quests at once.
Head into the world
Use /wild to reach survival terrain. After the Journey, follow the Claims quests to protect your base.
Save a home
Use /sethome after you find a safe base location. Traveler starts with one home.
Get established
Gather materials, level skills, finish early quests, and use /shop when you need it.
Ask when you need help
Use /helpop for online staff, form a party with friends, or open Discord for announcements and support.
Quests
What the Quest Atlas includes.
CarverMC has 119 quests in 12 categories: 77 one-time quests and a 42-contract weekly pool. The Daily Contract Board presents six choices—one for each track—and changes at midnight Eastern.
- Active at once
- Up to 3 quests
- One-time quest rewards
- $52,000 + 292 Quest Points
- Daily rotation
- 6 choices · midnight ET
- Optional late game
- Frontier Files
Land claims
Protect your base.
Finish the Journey, then follow Claims I–III in /quests. Use //wand to select your area, /claimprice to check the price, and /claim <name> followed by /claimconfirm to buy it. A full-height claim costs $5,000. Server rules also protect unclaimed builds.
Unclaimed does not mean abandoned.
Griefing, stealing, scams, and claim bypasses are prohibited everywhere. Use /helpop or /report if something happens.
Trading
Use the market or open a shop.
You start with $250. The server market has 28 sections, and QuickShop lets you sell directly to other players.
- QuickShop creation
- $100
- Rename / price edit
- $50 / $10
- Balance cap
- $10,000,000
Rank ladder
What each rank adds.
The seven ranks add practical perks such as more homes and more QuickShops. Rank kits are cumulative: you keep access to the kits you have already earned, each with its own cooldown. Progression ranks do not grant creative mode, god mode, or staff commands.
| Rank | Homes | QuickShops |
|---|---|---|
| Traveler | 1 | 2 |
| Citizen | 3 | 6 |
| Settler | 5 | 12 |
| Pathfinder | 8 | 20 |
| Vanguard | 12 | 30 |
| Champion | 16 | 45 |
| Legend | 24 | 64 |
AuraSkills
Eleven skills, 50 levels each.
Each skill pays $100 at level 10, $250 at level 25, and $500 at level 50. Check /skills to see your progress and available abilities.
Playing with a party
Parties support up to five players, turn off friendly fire, and share a small nearby AuraSkills bonus within 64 blocks. Parties do not add teleports, shared homes, or claim access.
Beyond the base
The Claimless are out there.
Custom Claimless encounters appear across the Overworld, Nether, and End. Pick up the optional Frontier Files quests when you’re ready to take them on.
Boss encounters
Boss fights are run as staff events. Watch the server announcements for an event before planning around one.
