Appearance
Wilderness
Outside spawn, the Cove opens into open survival land. There are two main outdoor environments: the main world where you build and live, and the NectarResource world set aside for raw gathering. The only custom mining system in either is the JartonMines crystal network at spawn, which is where Nectar Sap comes from.
The Main World
Standard survival generation, hard difficulty. This is where your home, town, and builds live. No custom biomes, no special structures beyond what vanilla generates.
NectarResource World
The NectarResource world is a separate resource-gathering world with standard Minecraft generation. Use it for mining, logging, and farming raw materials without touching your home world. There is no configured reset schedule.
Preserve the main world
Do your bulk stone, ore, and tree farming in NectarResource so the landscape around spawn and towns stays intact.
JartonMines: Crystal Mining
The most lucrative resource system at spawn is the JartonMines crystal network in the Nectarfall region. Crystals are the primary source of Nectar Sap, the server's premium currency.
Crystal Tiers
There are 5 crystal tiers. Higher tiers take more hits to break but yield dramatically more Nectar Sap and have a chance at jackpot payouts.
| Tier | Share | Hits to Break | Nectar Sap Range | Jackpot Chance | Jackpot Multiplier |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 (Common) | 50% | 3 | 1 to 10 | 1% | 3x to 6x |
| 2 | 27.5% | 6 | 5 to 40 | 1% | 3x to 6x |
| 3 | 15% | 10 | 20 to 100 | 2% | 3x to 6x |
| 4 | 5% | 16 | 50 to 250 | 2% | 3x to 6x |
| 5 (Rare) | 2.5% | 25 | 200 to 500 | 3% | 3x to 6x |
- 29 active crystal nodes are live in the mine at any time.
- Nodes regenerate every 10 minutes after being fully broken.
- Your rank increases how much Nectar Sap you receive per crystal: multipliers range from 1.0x (Hatchling) to 1.75x (Eternal).
Go for the rare tiers
Tier 5 crystals take 25 hits but can drop 200 to 500 Nectar Sap per break, and carry a 3% jackpot chance for a 3x to 6x bonus on top of that. If one is up, it's worth the effort.
What is Nectar Sap?
Nectar Sap is the premium currency used across JartonMC for incubating pets, brewing tonics, crafting gear, and buying from the Merchant. You earn it primarily by mining crystals at JartonMines.
Survival Tips
- Bring enough food and tools before heading out. The main world has no safe zones outside claims.
- Bank your gold before risky exploration. Death costs 25% of your wallet (banked gold is always safe).
- Tame a horse or earn an Elytra for efficient overland travel.
- Coordinate with town members when exploring far out: getting lost is easy, and graves only last 3 minutes before items drop on the ground.
