You will first spawn in the Hub, which is your starting point. Here you can venture to each Everstar Treaty kingdom's capital (Please refer to the Everstar page for more information on the treaty).

Keep in mind that Landclaim has been added to prevent griefing and theft.

Choose a kingdom to pledge your allegiance to depending on your play-style (Building, exploring, PvP, etc).

After you get teleported to a kingdom's capital, you'll need to send in an application here to be able to build and mine. Else you won't even be able to open chests.

Temporarily leave the city and go to the surrounding area to collect materials. It is highly suggested to reach at least leather, chainmail, or iron armor before interacting with other players.

Once your proposal is accepted, you can join 1 of 2 guilds within the capital city (The Builders' Guild and the Mercenaries' Guild).

The Builders' Guild and the Mercenaries' Guild hand out rewards for every task completed and is overseen by the server moderators.

The only way to join the Builders' Guild is to fill out this form, for which you'll need to provide pictures of past builds. You'll also need to prove that you've built them.

If you don't want to pledge allegiance a kingdom, go to a corner of the Hub. (There's a teleporter to "0 65 0" at all 4 corners).

REMEMBER TO NEVER GO OUT AT NIGHT IF YOU'RE NEW.

Once you are teleported to the surface, go to one of these coords:

OR

On the left is is a Birch Forest and a Dark Oak forest, whilst to the right is a Spruce Forest. Like stated above, it is highly suggested to reach at least leather, chainmail, or iron armor before interacting with other players.

There are 2 ways to go about living alone:

Settling down OR being a Nomad.

For settling down, refer to this addon page for instructions on how to claim land.

For a nomad, just try not to die. It is also highly suggested to learn summoning magic and to venture around to kingdoms accept quests/payment.
