Beginner's Guide

Welcome to Paradise Cove! You've washed up in a honey-soaked, bee-haunted Towny world with a story written just for it. There's a lot going on here, so this page is your "start here" — the few things every fresh hatchling should do first, with links out to the full guides when you want to go deeper.

Step 1 — Go See Jason

The fastest way to learn JartonMC is to play its story. From spawn, look to your leftJason, the scholar, is waiting in front of Jason's House. He'll welcome you to the Cove, get you settled with a starter kit, and hand you off to your first quest.

Let the story teach you

Every quest teaches you a different part of the server, so following the campaign is the best tutorial there is. Pick it up any time on the Storyline page.

Step 2 — Learn the Ropes

As the story introduces them, these are the core systems you'll use every single day:

  • Ranks & Rankup — climb the free /rankup ladder for more homes, claim space, and quality-of-life commands.
  • Skills — level up 15 RPG skills just by playing — mining, fighting, farming, and more.
  • Jobs — get paid Gold and XP for the work you're already doing.
  • Currency & Banking — earn Gold and Nectar, and bank it so you don't drop it when you die.

Step 3 — Put Down Roots

  • Towns & Land — reach Wanderer rank and found your own town with /town create, or join a friend's. Claim land, build, and keep your stuff safe.
  • Shops & Selling — turn your loot into Gold at the Auction House, the server shop, or your own market stall.
  • Player Warps and Locations & Discovery — set warps to your base and uncover landmarks across the map as permanent fast-travel points.

Step 4 — Chase Quests & Adventure

  • The Storyline — the main questline through the Founders' Trials, start to finish.
  • Side Quests — optional adventures with their own rewards: the Honey Slime Hunt, the Alchemist's Cauldron, the Dwarven Bloodline, and more.
  • Dungeons and Dungeon Keys — win keys from Astrid's beasts, then dive instanced dungeons for the best loot.
  • Bosses — meet the custom bosses waiting at the bottom of each one.

Step 5 — Make It Yours

  • Cosmetics — chat tags, glows, particle trails, crates, and the name-change machine.
  • Pets — hatch and summon companions to follow you around.
  • Voting & Rewards — vote daily for free Gold, Nectar, and crate keys (and help open the Pinata Club for everyone).
  • Events & Minigames — KOTH, the Gladiator Arena, Honey Clicker, and parkour.
