pANARCHY Map Overview and Lore

SPAWN

pANARCHY spawns you in at 0’0 on a small desert island. The 4 main axis roads from the island tell you that North is to Heartland, South is to the Old World, East is to the Seas of Waste and West is to the Badlands.

Choose wisely, for each road is very hazardous and brutal. However, hope is on the distant horizon as once you exit spawn you will find sanctuary and abundance on the outskirts of the world.

After you exit spawn, and before you reach Sanctuary and the Void at World’s Edge, you must first pass through a vast area between Spawn and Void known as The Drift.

The Drift is a mostly oceanic world, with large landmasses and small islands scattered throughout. It has an abundance of supplies and is a generally survivable wasteland, if not remote and lonely.

Should you escape spawn, then you will establish your base somewhere in The Drift or in the outer Sanctuaries. From here you will attack spawn and ensure new arrivals on the map have difficulty escaping to The Drift.

This is a mean and nasty map, and we want spawn escape to remain a privilege. Roads out of spawn will be routinely destroyed.

Once you have established your base and your attack patterns into spawn, you may read on to the pANARCHY Games and Quests section, where the on-going hunt for valuable items on pANARCHY form a large part of our lifestyle on the map. You may search for multiple Diamond Pans, Slime Pans, Netherite Pans, Gold Pans, Supply depots, Islands of Books, Castles with End Portals and more to ensure that you have OP advantages on pANARCHY.

ORIGINS OF pANARCHY

pANARCHY server was born out of 2b2t Goliath Leader Pan’s vision of a truly inescapable Anarchy Spawn.

The Beginnings

Pan began playing 2b2t in August 2024 and he was dismayed by how easy escaping spawn was. After a few attempts, Pan escaped spawn (with no hacks, and in vanilla) and established Pan’s Island within 7K of 0’0.

Pan’s Island remained unmolested for a month until his group Goliath began the 2024 Goliath Incursion into 2b2t spawn. At this point Pan’s Island was wasted by enemies and is now a cratered island.

After establishing Pan’s Island, Pan soon began generating, on foot, 20K of 2b2t spawn via world downloader. This took about a month and was a grueling task. Pan then began experimenting with Minecraft mapping in MCA Selector and, before long, he had amassed a giant collection of anarchy spawn world downloads from many different servers (maps numbering in the hundreds).

Pan began using his extensive background in visual arts and game modding/mapping to create a truly horrific 404K overworld map for pANARCHY. The spawn Pan has created is nothing short of demented. Everything is exaggerated, everything is more dangerous, everything is more relentless and hardcore.

Pan’s concentrated and destroyed spawn, alone, is a 60K monstrosity. Players must reach beyond 30K in any direction before they may begin to find refuge.

pANARCHY’s map is Pure Minecraft Sadism.

The Road to Release for pANARCHY

After completing an early version of the pANARCHY overworld, Pan decided to release his monster map to his 2b2t Goliath crew as a private server, upon encouragement from Zebra (Goliath Senior Member).

As the idea took hold, Pan began to discuss the idea for a large server with Senior Goliath members Ghost of Goliath, Disciple of Pan (Synful), Jet, JustADude, KingSoft, Arch Bishop of Pan-turbury (Spettrocat), BoatBoi, Dappi, Elder Guardian of Goliath and Employee 404.

It was decided that pANARCHY map should be publicly released as a hardcore vanilla Anarchy minecraft server with a giant concurrent player cap.

Pan pulled out his giant wallet and purchased a 192gb RAM server based in East USA and began finalising his map for public release. Pan decided that he will block the Nether to make spawn escape even harder, but a large custom End Dimension will be included. Travel to the End can be achieved via hidden End Castles in the pANARCHY overworld.

President Pan decided that pANARCHY should be played in Vanilla, the same way Pan first experienced 2b2t. This makes Minecraft Anarchy more intense, more immersive and more skills-based than other Anarchy servers. Pan has decided that hacking interferes with immersion and that pANARCHY will stand as a different experience to 2b2t, 9b9t and Constantiam.

pANARCHY will have one mod to start with - a corpse mod. This is so a history of the dead will be permanently strewn across the map for the viewing pleasure of all those who choose to enable the mod. Corpses die with items within their bodies and despawn if items are removed.

A house rule is we ask that you don’t interfere with the dead and you let the corpses lie where they fall. If you must strip a corpse of items then we ask you build a small gravesite for the dead player - a small cobble cross with a sign and player name will suffice.
