Shade Crest is a collection of Minecraft servers with a strong community that values fun, competition, creativity, and variety in gameplay. While being competitive in groups, we genuinely respect one another, help each other out, and share experiences via our forums and teamspeak. We have a professionally led team of helpful staff that are constantly working to improve the server for the community. Shade Crest was founded in February 2011 and while we do not wish to be the biggest server, we do want to be one of the servers people think of for quality creative and survival experiences.
Shade Crest Survival is a multiworld server which shares a single iConomy/ChestShop based economy. Whether you chose to live in peaceful or pvp, your items and money transfer across worlds. There is a single spawn world where players come together to market goods, advertise towns, compete in events, and participate in arena based pvp. Our peaceful world is for those who wish for a challenging, cooperative PVE experience without the burden of global PVP, while our PvP world is tailored to thrill-seeking players who want to participate in exciting PvP fights and town rivalries. We also have a mining, nether, and end worlds which get periodically reset as new world generation content is implemented or needed to stimulate the economy.
ShadeCrest Creative is a multiworld server which promotes cooperative, creative building with an emphasis on quality building skill. Over time as you continue to prove your building skills, you can be granted higher ranks which give you access to worlds and tools like WorldEdit and VoxelSniper.
