Game Information

The world

Legion Arcana runs across a small network of connected servers. You'll spend almost all your time on the main one, called Arcana.

Zones you should know about

The world is divided into protected areas. Which one you're standing in decides whether you can be attacked and whether you can build.

Galleons & earning money

Galleons are the server currency. Everything from wand upgrades to auction bids is paid in them.

Check your balance with /money. Send some to a friend with /pay <player> <amount> — that opens a confirmation window showing your balance before and after, so you can't fat-finger an extra zero.

Ways to earn

Wands

The wand is the signature weapon of Legion Arcana. It's a ranged magic weapon that never breaks, grows stronger as you invest in it, and is entirely unique to this server.

Getting your first wand

Visit Orivane the Wandwright at spawn and right-click him. You choose two things: a wood, which sets the wand's name and look, and a core, which is its magical heart. Orivane takes the ingredients and builds the wand for you.

The twelve woods

The three cores

Wand Power — I through XXV

Every wand has a Power level from I to XXV. This is the single biggest factor in how dangerous you are. Power raises your damage and lets you fire faster.

Damage figures are against a lightly armoured target — heavier armour reduces them, the same as any other weapon. The wand's exact damage number is deliberately hidden in-game; the tooltip reads "Damage: Concealed".

Upgrading

Hold your wand and right-click Vesperis the Wandbinder. Each Power level costs 50 Galleons, so taking a fresh wand from Power I to Power XXV costs 1,200 Galleons in total. You can stop and come back whenever you like — progress is saved on the wand itself.

Styling your wand

Violetta the Wandsinger runs the wand studio. She doesn't change how strong your wand is — she changes how it looks and sounds: the colour of your spell trail, the particle it leaves behind, the sound it makes when you cast and when you hit. Purely cosmetic, purely for style.

Casting spells

Wand combat is not point-and-click. Your spell is guided — you steer it in flight by moving your mouse.

Hold right-click to cast. A bolt leaves your wand and travels up to 28 blocks. While you keep holding, the bolt follows where you're looking, so you can curve it around a pillar or track someone strafing. Let go and it flies straight on.

The guided phase lasts about a third of a second, which is roughly how long the bolt takes to cross its full range. Turning hard mid-flight works, but there's a limit to how sharply the bolt can bend, so wild flicks will lose it.

A wand also fires a wind charge on the alternate cast, useful for knocking someone off a ledge or launching yourself. Wands can't break blocks, so left-clicking terrain does nothing.

World bosses

Every two hours, a boss spawns in the warzone arena and the whole server is invited to kill it. It's the biggest recurring group event on the server.

A boss is chosen at random from three. The event runs for up to 15 minutes — if nobody kills the boss in that time it despawns and the reward goes unclaimed. The arena is a 100 × 100 block area and the boss is leashed inside it, so it can't be dragged away or kited into someone's base.

The three bosses

All three have an effective health pool of 10,000, which is far beyond any normal mob. Expect a real fight, and bring friends.

Rewards

Keys are delivered into your reward inbox rather than dropped on the floor, so you can't lose them in the scramble. Collect them with /rewards.

The parkour course

A timed jumping challenge in its own private world, with a genuinely valuable prize at the end.

Type /parkour to open the window, which shows you what the course gives and whether you're allowed to run it right now. Start the run and you're teleported to the course. Reach the finish plate and you've completed it.

Your wand helps here — the wind charge is a legitimate way to cross a gap you can't jump, and learning to use it well is part of the challenge.

The rules

• You can complete the course once every 24 hours.
• Your best time is recorded, so you can race yourself.
• Teleport commands are blocked while you're running — /spawn, /home, /homes, /tpa, /tpaccept, /hub, /f, /warp, /rtp and /crate will all refuse. You can't shortcut your way to the finish.
• Give up any time with /parkour leave.

Crates & keys

Crates are the server's reward boxes. You earn a key, you open the matching crate, and a reel spins to pick your prize.

The physical crates stand together in one area. Get there instantly with /crate — it teleports you after a short stand-still warmup. Right-click a crate to open it if you hold its key, or click to preview it: every crate shows you its full reward list and real odds before you spend anything.

Full reward tables with exact percentages for every crate are on the Ranks & Crates page.

Quests

Aurelius the Amethyst Sage hands out repeatable kill quests that get more rewarding the more of them you finish.

Right-click Aurelius and he gives you a target — a number of a particular mob to kill. You have 45 minutes. The mobs scale with how many quests you've already done: early quests ask for zombies and skeletons, later ones send you after blazes, endermen, ghasts and wither skeletons.

When you finish the objective, a Quest Coin materialises for you. Carry it back to Aurelius and hand it over to claim your Galleons. The reward grows with your quest count, so the hundredth quest pays considerably better than the first.

Hunting contracts

Vaelora the Hex Huntress posts bounties on dangerous mobs. Pick one up, go kill the mobs, come back and get paid.

Contracts are a good early-to-mid game income and they push you into parts of the world you might otherwise avoid — the Nether for blazes and wither skeletons, the ocean for guardians.

The NPCs of spawn

Spawn is a shopping district. Each character standing there does one job — right-click any of them to open their window.

The shop

Open it with /shop or by right-clicking Mordren. It stocks 532 items sorted into fifteen categories.

Every item has a buy price and a sell price, and the shop always buys back for meaningfully less than it sells for — there's no way to make money by simply buying and re-selling.

Auction house

The player-to-player market. Open it with /ah or by visiting Selene.

List anything you own at a price you choose and other players can buy it outright. Browse the public market, or switch to your listings to see what you've got up and cancel anything that isn't selling.

• You may have up to 12 active listings at once.
• Buying asks for confirmation first, so a misclick can't empty your balance.
• If a purchase fails partway through, the item and the money are both returned — nothing is lost.

This is where reward notes, spare spawners and rare crate items find a real price.

Player trading

Use /trade <player> for a direct, face-to-face swap.

Both players get a window, both put in items and Galleons, and both have to confirm before anything moves. Change the offer after someone has confirmed and the confirmation resets — so nobody can swap the goods at the last second.

Malvora's Apothecary — the potion shop

The one shop on the server that doesn't take Galleons. Malvora trades in experience levels.

This is the potion-PvP supply stop. Everything she sells is a standard vanilla potion — nothing custom, nothing that behaves oddly — priced so a full fighting loadout costs exactly 30 levels.

Left-click any potion to buy one, right-click to buy eight. Potions don't stack, so the shop checks you have enough free inventory slots before taking your levels — you'll never pay and then watch the bottles hit the floor.

Kits & vaults

Two rank benefits worth explaining here, because they shape how you play.

Kits

/kit opens the kit window. Everyone can claim the free Starter kit; each paid rank adds its own stronger kit and keeps access to every kit below it. A kit is a full set of armour, tools and a wand, and each is claimable once every 24 hours on its own separate timer.

Player vaults

Vaults are private storage that nothing can take from you — not death, not a raid. /pv <1-4> opens one. How many you get, and whether you can open them from anywhere or have to walk to the vault room at spawn, depends on your rank.

Full rank-by-rank breakdown on the Ranks & Crates page.

Getting around

How many homes you can save depends on your rank — everyone gets at least one, and the top rank gets seven.

PvP rules

A handful of rules keep fights fair and stop people running away from them.

Fall damage is switched off in every protected zone, so you won't die to the drop when you teleport into spawn.

Duels

A clean 1v1 with no risk to your gear. Challenge someone with /duel <player>.

If they accept, you're both taken to a duel arena and given the equipment for the match. Your own inventory is stored safely and handed back afterwards, win or lose — a duel never costs you anything.

• NPC shops are locked while you're duelling, so nobody restocks mid-match.
• Your real inventory is recovered even if the server restarts mid-duel.

Spawners & mobs

Spawners stack their mobs

Mobs produced by a spawner merge into a single stacked mob instead of filling the area with hundreds of separate entities. A stack can reach 100, and a new mob joins an existing stack if it spawns within 6 blocks of it.

This keeps grinders running smoothly without lagging the server. Only spawner mobs stack — bred animals, mobs from eggs and naturally spawned mobs are left alone.

Picking up spawners

Sneak and right-click a spawner to pick it up. A confirmation appears first so you don't lose one by accident. Spawners inside protected server regions can't be taken.

Phantoms are tamed

Vanilla insomnia phantoms are switched off entirely — staying awake for days summons nothing. Instead, a single phantom visits each eligible player every other night, appearing high above them. Membranes stay obtainable without the constant harassment.

Background systems

Things that happen around you without you asking. None of these change the balance of the game — they're the texture of the server.

Chat games

Every so often a game appears in chat. The first person to type the correct answer wins Galleons. There are four kinds:

Prizes are small (1–2 Galleons) — these are for fun and to keep chat alive, not a serious income. If nobody answers in time the game ends and announces the answer.

Chat announcements

The server posts periodic messages into chat: tips, reminders about features you might not have found, and the daily demand notice telling you which item Mr. Burke is paying double for today.

Paid for playing

Simply being online earns Galleons. You're paid automatically at 30-minute intervals — no command, no claiming. Going AFK with /afk marks you as away to other players.

Ground item cleanup

Items dropped on the ground are periodically cleared to keep the server running well. You get warnings in chat at 30 seconds, 10 seconds and 5 seconds before a sweep — grab your loot when you see them.

Scheduled restarts

The server restarts on a schedule to stay healthy. You get a countdown in chat well in advance, the world is saved, and combat tags survive the restart so nobody escapes a fight by timing it. Check the schedule any time with /restart status.

Your sidebar

The scoreboard down the right of your screen shows your live stats. Control it with /scoreboard on, off, or size large|medium|small — or the short form /sb.

Profiles

/stats shows your own profile and statistics; /stats <player> shows someone else's. /staff lists the staff team and their ranks.

Reward inbox

Anything the server owes you — boss keys, parkour keys, quest payouts — is delivered into /rewards rather than dropped at your feet. Nothing is lost if your inventory is full or you disconnect at the wrong moment.

Arcanist tools

A set of four upgraded netherite tools — pickaxe, axe, shovel and hoe — that appear as crate rewards. They're a step above ordinary gear and are one of the more sought-after Vote crate rolls.

Portable windows

Higher ranks can carry certain interfaces with them instead of finding the block: /ec (ender chest), /craft (crafting table), /anvil, and /trash — a disposal bin that destroys whatever you leave in it. See the Ranks page for who gets what.
