Legendary Spawners

Legendary Spawners are TalonMC's custom spawners, in tiers 1 to 5. Higher tiers spawn more mobs, faster, with bigger drop multipliers, and tiers 3 and up stack mobs into one entity (up to 2,500).

Angling (custom fishing)

Angling replaces vanilla fishing. Cast, wait for the boss bar to show REEL!, then right-click inside the window; too early or too late loses the catch, and a perfect reel pays a bonus. Your Angling Level (max 100) speeds up bites and improves rare fish, sea.

Making money on Survival

Jobs are the steady income: pick jobs that match how you play, and check /jobs for the current 48-hour boosts. Miner pays the most per action and scales with ore value; Deadzone jobs Enforcer and Scavenger pay well from level 1.

PvP rules

PvP on TalonMC Survival is opt-in. It is off by default, and a hit only lands when both players have PvP enabled with /pvp. There is no PvP in the Deadzone or the Mine World.

Keep inventory is on by default. If you turn it off with /keepinventory, you drop your items on death.

Worlds

SMP vs survival server: what is the difference?

SMP means survival multiplayer. Some people use it for small whitelisted friend servers, others for any public survival server. TalonMC Survival is a public SMP: anyone can join, the world is shared, claims keep your builds safe, and keep inventory means a death does not cost you your gear.
