Anchors

Creating a claim#

The Respawn Anchor is Minter's claim block. Place one and every block within a 96-block radius gains custom HP, which turns your base into a claim. Claims appear on the live map and in the compass.

• Getting an anchor. Complete Nether ruins.
• Upkeep. Anchors need emeralds to function. Right-click the anchor to add upkeep.
• Checking HP. Once upkept, right-click any block with an empty hand to see its HP.
• Grace period. A newly placed anchor takes about an hour to show up on the map.

Earning upkeep#

Emeralds come from the economy you build. Place buildings, /employ other players and collect taxes, then use energy to power crop and mob farms and trade the produce with villagers.

Anchor menu#

Right-click a placed anchor to manage it:

Upgrading protection#

Every anchor starts at Tier Ø (350 HP). It's cheap, but usually not enough to stop even an amateur raid. Click Upgrade in the menu and pick a tier.

Invulnerable tiers ɪv and v only apply to areas surrounded by nodes. Raiders must break a node before they can push deeper into your claim.

Defending against sieges#

• Bury the anchor. Obsidian walls force raiders to spend far more hits and TNT.
• Layer your defenses. Multiple walls and gaps slow cannons down and give defenders time to respond.
• Never miss upkeep. An unpaid anchor is an unprotected anchor.
• Ring it with nodes. Upgraded nodes unlock invulnerable tiers at the core of your claim.
• Log off inside. Your log-off head is only safe inside a claim.

Block access with paper#

Setting up a public shop? Left-click an interactable block (a button, chest, door and so on) with paper to cycle its access level:

• Private (default). Only players on the anchor, or players inside their own building's range.
• Trusted. Players inside buildings in your claim.
• Public. Anyone.
