Survival Crates

Crates

Our Crates feature is across the whole server and combines a mixture of Crates for Survival, Voting as well as Cosmetics and Pets. This wiki page will take you through the basics of claiming and using these crates as well as share what you can gain from this. Global Crates and Keys will be separate from Survival Crates as there will be some differences between them all!

Crates on our servers will usually have their own unique warp to claim using:

/warp crates

/crates

or /warps and finding the warp within the warp navigation menu.

The majority of our crates will have their own Chest with holograms above them to describe what they look like. An example of this is Survival Crates:

As you can see that there are a number of different Crates on our server to access.

Crates + Keys basics

Right-clicking on the crate will give you a menu that shows all of the items within the Crate. An example of this is the Vote Crate:

The music disc 11 will be able to be clicked on in order to close the menu.

You can highlight the reward to know what it is and this will give you the chance of receiving this reward. For example, if we want the Wither Rose icon:

Once you have a key left clicking the Crate will open the create and process the animation.

Note: Survival does not just have Crates that require Keys but also Crates that can be opened directly in the inventory.

Voting Crates

On Symbiplex Survival we have 2 types of Vote crates. Once you have voted you will be given a Vote Chance Crate. This Crate will give you a chance to get a Vote Key, as you can Vote up to 8 times you get 8 of these a day and its down to the world of RnG to give you as many Vote keys as possible.

This key is used in a different mode where you right-click to redeem the reward.

Once you receive a vote key you can visit the /crates and with the key in your hand, you can left-click the chest and start the reward!

The reward animation will start:

Shown by multiple colours when the reward is given it will go all dark and give you the item or the reward from the middle! In this case, I got an Enchanted Golden Apple

These keys are obtained via Voting, Vote Key chance crates, and when you Vote on all sites each day.

The rewards for these will be listed at the bottom of this wiki page.

Crate tiers

Although Voting Crates is the first step of the process of growing up into different crates the following Crate tiers apply:

Level 1 – Vote Crate

level 2 – Common Crate

level 3 – Uncommon Crate

level 4 – Rare Crate

level 5 – Legendary Crate

Each Crate has its own unique colour and key of the same colour that can be used. Much like the vote crate above, left-click with the key in your hand to open the Crate. As the Tiers increase the better the rewards that can be obtained via them, each Crate has a chance to get a Key of Crates at a higher Level than this Crate. Eg. The Rare Crate has a chance to get a Legendary Crate key.

Like the Voting Crates, you can right-click to display the current rewards that can be obtained.

Keys can also be bought via our in-server shop. They can also be earnt through Symbiplex Levels and other rewards.

Note: The Survival keys will have monthly changing items to keep them exciting and encourage our players to get all of the collectables.

Note: Each tier has a collectable item for you to achieve! Try and find them all!

Lootcase & DailyLootbox

Lootcases are a special reward you receive when Voting on all of the Vote sites like the Vote Chance you right-click to open these in your inventory. This Crate gives you 1 or more keys to each of the tiers to get you going!

DailyLootbox will be added in an up and coming update.

The Rewards

We have displayed our rewards this way, as we constantly change our rewards to best suit the server.

Grief Prevention / Claims

Claims

One of the most important features of our Survival Server is Claims. Claims allow you to have a protected area where players can not enter or interact with chests, items, or grief. This feature allows you to have a safe space away from others and be able to log on one day without fear someone has stolen your Diamonds. Grief Prevention and Claims allows you to add players to your Claims and specify which permissions you can grant within your own Claim. Not only does it protect you against player grief but also server grief such as explosions or something trivial such as Enderman stealing blocks! Survival wants to treat all players with respect and allow them to have some protection against others, at the end of the day the Server is a public Server and anyone can join when they please.

You can have multiple Claims across the server each with its own permissions that you can set. The size of your claim depends on the number of Claim blocks that you have and can be earnt through playing on the server.

How to Claim

To Claim land you just need to get a:

Golden Shovel

With this item in hand, you will see how many Claim blocks you have remaining, visit the earning Claim blocks section to work out how to get more. The message looks like this:

right-click to begin your Claim and it will look like this:

Now right-click on the other corner, so it will create a protected region for you.

The below shows the final area with the message you receive:

Note that the Golden Blocks generated in the ground can only be seen by the land’s owner.

You can also gain your first Claim by simply placing down a chest and it will automatically Claim an area around this chest:

Locating Claims

You may be required to locate claims for a common error message that you can’t make a Claim here as it overlaps with another Claim, In this case, use a normal stick and right-click the ground and it will display any Claims like:

This error message is when you are overlapping your own Claim but a similar message is displayed when you overlap someone else’s.

Using the stick will show you:

It will display how large the area is that has been Claimed, who Claimed it and when they last logged in.

In the case the Claim is not yours, you will see Redstone and Netherrack surrounding the Claim instead of the Gold and Glowstone

Other features

O – Players create and manage their own land claims without needing an admin.

O – A player’s first chest receives an automatic land claim to protect it.

O – Optional setup to exchange server currency for claim blocks through other plugins.

O – Option setup to receive claim blocks through voting, donations, and more with other plugins.

O – PvP protection to protect innocent players or punish combat logging.

Auction House

Auction House

The Auction House is our player-to-player trading system which allows players to put their items up on the Auction House for sale to other players, this feature is available on our Survival, RPG, and Symbisky servers, it is designed in a way that is simple to use and this wiki page will take you through how to use it.

To begin with, you only get 5 slots for placing items on the Auction House, this is to prevent early game spam and abuse of the system. As you advance and play through our server and gain Symbiplex Levels you will have more slots to use.

To start using the commands:

/ah

/auction

The main menu looks like the following:

Each of the buttons is the following:

O – The area of random items is usually what is being sold

O – The Chest is for all expired items. This is when the items you have sold have finished their default 30 day cycle period without anyone buying them.

O – The Ender Chest is for all of your bought items, this allows you to redeem it to our inventory

O – The first Arrow is to navigate to the previous page if there is one

O – The Nether Star is for information and allows you to filter the menu to be able to arrange the items in a different order. On other menus, this is also the back button

O – The second Arrow is to navigate to the next page if there is one

O – The Sunflower displays all of the items that you have on the Auction House currently

O – The Minecart Chest arranges the items into categories to help find items quicker.

 

How to sell an item

Hold the item you want to sell in your hand and run the command:

/ah sell <price> <amount>

eg. selling 64 Spruce Wood Planks for 100 would be:

/ah sell 100 64

This will give you a message to say the item has been added to the Auction House and when you do /ah you will see it there under your items.

How to buy an item

Run the command /ah and you will see an item for sale that looks like the following:

I want to buy this chest plate now so I would click on it. It will only allow me to buy it if I have enough money. It will take you to this screen:

The Green Stained Glass Panes will confirm your purchase

The Red Stained Glass Panes will cancel your purchase

In this case, we click the Green Stained Glass Pane which gives you a menu to state – You have purchased item X. It will exit you out of the Auction House menu, from here go back in via /ah and click the Ender Chest for the bought items which will display the following:

From here much like other inventories, click on the item to bring to your inventory and the Blue Stained Glass Pane will remove all items in this view to your inventory.

How to remove an item you are selling

The first way is to click the item in the Auction House and you will see the following screen:

The Green Stained Glass Pane will confirm the removal of the item from the Auction House

The Red Stained Glass Pane will go back to the Auction House homepage

Alternatively, you can click the Sunflower menu to display the following:

Clicking on the individual item will remove it back to your inventory and take it off sale.

You can remove all by clicking the Green Stained Glass Pane

Expired items

Much like the above menu, this works in the same way where all unsold items will go into this GUI and you can remove them individually by clicking on the item or you can remove all by clicking the Blue Stained Glass Pane.

There are 3 ways you can purchase, a rolling monthly cost, 6 months, or for a year. The longer period you buy the cheaper it is to get the rank per month.

[iframe src=”https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSaagfIltZ0c2Bdu0h1eFaJtEonMwM5GdA0pFVJTex-B7V8YuPD_z_PZhvUaUHRXVkgTUK7GNZwFBGU/pubhtml?widget=true&amp;headers=false”]

Note: Make sure to change TABS to see the different types of keys.

Pay to Win claims

We take any claims of being Pay to Win seriously and want to work with our community to ensure that we are not a pay-to-win server, no doubt people’s opinions change and we want to hear about all of these, please join our discord and raise a support ticket and we will take your suggestions seriously.

 

Symbiplex Levels

What are Symbiplex Levels?

Symbiplex levels are key to our server and connect everything that we do. You earn level experience from all sorts of things, the most common way is by playtime and voting. Essentially play on our server and rank up. Most levels will have a reward associated with it as documented in the spreadsheet below.

The first tab details the rewards that you get at each level and the second explains how you can earn the experience.

This can constantly change, hence why we have embedded our spreadsheet directly from the google sheets where we do the work so you will always see a live version and/or any perceived changes.

The Levels & XP Gain

[iframe src=”https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRa2xA8gOnx_-ABS-cOSJtUl3F2SIwK8mvZYOfBIc19UnEGc5ZJHbkGYak_bS9KwVB30yXOKP_MulyY/pubhtml?widget=true&amp;headers=false”]

Claiming Rewards

The GUI that is given by Levels can be accessed by running /rewards. Once in the GUI you will see a list of rewards. The feature allows you to claim rewards in certain servers, eg. any reward marked as Creative can only be claimed in creative. Global rewards can be claimed across all the servers, these are usually cosmetic features and or permissions that span the entire network.

To claim a reward simply click the green chest icon (with a sheep coming out of it!) and this will automatically claim the reward for you to the server you are in.
Any normal chests are rewards you can not claim because you have not reached that level
Any chests that are red (with the sheep coming out of it) are rewards that you have already claimed and so you can’t claim these!

To cycle through the GUI use the Arrows to cycle through.

The GUI also has links to other features that allow you to claim rewards, such as quests or voting. It also links back to /info which you should know by now is the key command to the server!

To check your level press the TAB key and it will show up next to your name. This is also displayed on the GUI on the brewing stand with a progress bar to the next level.

Why claim my rewards?

Players often get stuck with the generic permission system eg. only getting a set number of set homes. We want to change that server dynamic and give you, the player, a purpose regardless of what server you play on. Although donation ranks can be obtained in our shop, this allows a way for our players to earn new rewards, eg. get that 3rd set home for your new Nether Gold farm so you don’t have to find your way through your portals.

It also gives you access to features you may need such as world edit for creative etc.

Claiming allows you to progress down the level tree faster by giving you XP boosts along the way and bonuses to make your playing experience better.

Future Features

Currently, the leveling system only reaches 250 (you can see this when you scroll down on the spreadsheet) and does not include veteran rewards even if you see this within the GUI, this is a future feature.

As we add more server features and content to the server more rewards will get added as time goes on.

This section will cover all the Wiki sites for the RPG server.
