Civil

Every player picks one of four civilizations, is teleported to its homeland, and plays out leaders, wars, alliances, a shared treasury and protected territory.

The four civilizations

You choose once. Only an admin can switch you later. Each homeland is found automatically by searching the world for the civilization’s biomes.

Perks are potion effects given to members, either only inside the civilization’s land or anywhere.

Features

Commands

Run /civ help in game. /civilization and /civs also work.

Settings you may notice

Ascension

Make your weapons and armor stronger. Level them up, ascend them to higher tiers, and unlock special abilities.

Quick start

  1. Hold a sword, axe, bow or any armor piece, then type /ascension or /asc.
  2. Click Level Up to spend XP levels. +10 does it several times at once.
  3. At the level cap, click Ascend, gather the listed materials, and the item moves up a tier.
  4. Keep going until your gear reaches Apex at level 90.

What can I upgrade?

Weapons

Swords, axes, tridents, maces, bows and crossbows deal more damage.

Armor

Helmets, chestplates, leggings and boots take less damage.

Not upgradeable

Pickaxes, shields, elytra and other tools.

Tiers

Items start at level 1 in Mortal. The exact costs come from the server, so the in-game menu always has the final numbers.

A maxed weapon deals about +37% damage and a full maxed armor set blocks about 38%. Against players these bonuses count at half strength. Ascended gear can also lose no durability when used.

Refinement

Hold a spare, plain copy of the same item (no upgrades or enchantments), open the menu and click Refine. The spare is used up and the ability gains a rank, up to R5.

Armor set bonus

Wear all four pieces. The set counts as its lowest-tier piece.

Ward

Awakened set: you take a little less damage.

Vigor

Ascendant set: 2 extra hearts.

Aegis

Apex set: fire resistance.

Commands

Kvenchants adds 89 custom enchantments in five rarities: Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary and Curse. Find them in loot, trade for them, or get lucky at the enchanting table.

Finding enchants

Custom enchants come only as enchanted books or as a bonus enchant from the world. There is no shop.

Different structures favor different themes: mineshafts give mining enchants, ancient cities and End cities give rarer ones, bastions give Nether enchants, and outposts give bow and crossbow enchants. Legendary books only come from the better structures and from bosses.

Using enchants

Combine the book and the item at an anvil. Each item has a limited number of custom slots and a power budget. Vanilla enchants never count against either, and the anvil tells you why it rejects a book. Hold an item and run /ce inspect to see its slots and power.

Example: a pickaxe with a budget of 6 can hold Excavator II (5) and Magnetic (1), but not Excavator II and Smelting Touch (5 + 2 = 7).

What can’t be combined

An item can hold only one enchant from each conflict group, such as area, movement, sustain or damage amp. A few other pairs also clash, and some can’t be used with vanilla enchants (Prospector with Fortune, Sunmend and Book of Life with Mending, Day or End Protection with Protection). The browser below lists the exact conflicts for every enchant.
