Welcome to EMC!
This site is a guide for surviving and thriving on the EarthMC Minecraft server.
On EMC, "Gold" (G) is the currency used for all transactions.
Start by reading the "Getting Started" section below.
🔰 Getting Started
1. Voting
Type /vote in the in-game chat.
Click the URL that appears to open the voting website.
Complete the captcha ("I'm not a robot"), enter your username, and submit your vote. You can vote twice a day to receive a crate key (roulette).
2. Getting Land
Once you join a town, ask the mayor to assign you a plot of land. You cannot build or break blocks outside your own plot initially.
3. Building a Home
Once you have collected some gold from voting, build a house to serve as your base.
4. Exploring
Explore your town or visit other nations using /n spawn [Nation Name] to see their shops and
architecture.
💰 How to Earn Gold
1. Mining
The most basic way to earn money. Mine gold in the wilderness (outside town claims). Always use an Invisibility Potion to avoid being killed by other players (PK).
⛏️ Mining Guide
Requirements:
- Efficiency V, Unbreaking III Pickaxe and Shovel
- Food
- Invisibility Potion (Essential for safety)
- Haste II Potion (For faster mining)
Steps:
- Go to the wilderness.
- Drink your Invisibility Potion immediately.
- Dig down to the recommended level (around y12 or y22).
- Use your Haste potion and mine efficiently (e.g., strip mining).
2. Trading (Shops)
Open your own shop or sell items to large buying shops (e.g., Mali, Yamato) to make a profit.
3. PvP (Player Killing)
Kill other players to steal their gear and gold. This requires high PvP skills and is very risky.
Other Methods
- Raiding (Ruins): If a town is inactive for 42 days, it falls into ruin (unclaimed). You can loot everything there.
- Gambling: Casinos exist, but you risk losing everything.
- Jobs: Some players hire others for terraforming or gathering resources.
🏪 Using Shops
Reading Shop Signs
- Seller's Name (Red if out of stock)
- Selling or Buying
- Item Name
- Price (e.g., 64 items for 1G)
✅ How to Buy
- Left-click the shop sign (or chest).
- "Shop Information" will appear in the chat.
- Type the quantity you want to buy in chat (e.g.,
1). - If successful, you will see a "Successfully purchased" message.
🔵 Creating a Shop
- Ask your mayor to set your plot as a SHOP plot.
- Place a chest. Hold the item you want to sell and left-click the chest with it.
- The chat will ask "Enter in chat, how much...".
- Type the price in chat.
- Stock the chest with the items to start selling.
