Our first month is in the books! Here's every change from the Discord #changelog in one place. Where something was adjusted more than once, you'll find the final numbers.

The Big Ones

• Prestige is here. Five permanent tiers above the rank ladder, earned with money, coins and mob kills. Prestiging never resets your rank, claims or progress. Perks stack as you climb: the Prestige Shop and Kit, up to 25% off the Spawner Shop, coloured and gradient item names in an anvil, keep XP on death, +10 minion slots, and repairing Mending gear by hand. The Prestige+ Shop is now open too. Type /prestige to see where you stand.
• Wings really fly. Cosmetic wings now let you glide while wearing a full set of armour.
• Reporting is private. Only staff ever see reports, and you're never named to the player you reported. Use /report <player> <reason> in game, or open a Report a Player ticket on Discord when you have screenshots or clips.

Store

• New ways to pay: card, Apple Pay and Google Pay (no PayPal account needed), plus Bitcoin and Ethereum. These cover one-time purchases; subscriptions still use PayPal.
• Account & VPN packages simplified from fourteen products to four: VPN Whitelist + 1, 2, 3 or 4 pairs of accounts ($4.99 / $7.99 / $9.99 / $11.99). A pair is one extra Java and one extra Bedrock account. One payment, permanent, and upgrading only costs the difference. Link your accounts with /alts link.
• Crate key packages were repackaged for better value.
• Patrons now receive 1,250 Coins per month.

Donor Perks

• All donor ranks skip the teleport cooldown.
• All donor ranks get 5 claim flags.
• Each rank has its own /glow colour: Vex gray, Phantom blue, Blaze gold, Golem white, Warden dark blue.

Economy & Spawners

• The spawner shop was rebalanced. Returns now scale up the tiers, from chickens (slowest) to iron golems (fastest), and mob drop prices were updated to match.
• Weekly spawner limits in /shop spawners: Tier 1 is 25,000 physical / 50,000 virtual, Tier 2 is 12,500 / 25,000, and Tier 3 is 5,000 / 10,000.
• Spawner stacks hold up to 5,000, with up to 16 stacks per chunk.
• Mobs killed per killing blow raised from 1,000 to 2,500.
• Sell prices in the mobs and farming shops were halved to slow the economy down.
• Chicken stacks lay one egg per cycle.
• Collectors: the Speed upgrade became Sweep (how many items are picked up per kill cycle, starting at 250; the rest drop to the ground). Fully upgrading now costs $750 million, and added players can use a collector's contents.
• Minions are cheaper: Miner and Lumberjack 500, Feeder, Seller and Slayer 1,000.
• Chunk anchors no longer disappear, and every tier is 60 to 70% cheaper: Small runs from 100 Coins (1 day) to 700 (14 days), Large from 300 (1 day) to 1,125 (5 days).
• Pet prices and AFK zone rewards were adjusted.

Crates

• Epic Crate: the Mending chance rose from 1.5% to 5%, and Epic Crate armour and tools no longer come with Mending.
• Crate armour protection was lowered by one level. If you collected sets before the change, you've got levels that can no longer be obtained!

️ Voting

• Two new vote sites: TopG and Best Minecraft Servers. MC Server List moved to MCCommunity, and every link is already updated.
• Every vote pays 5 Coins, 1 Vote Key, $25,000, 50 claim blocks and 5 minutes of fly. Find them all with /vote or at acediamc.com/vote.

Gameplay

• Kits are now /kit <kit> instead of /kit claim <kit>, and /kit starter includes a fishing rod.
• Bosses no longer catch fire. The Skeletal Knight and Skeleton King were retired.
• Golden Plushies around spawn mark the easter egg signs: each one means one or two signs are close by.
• New trivia questions in the chat games, and no more "first caught" messages for common and uncommon fish.

Fixes

• The End works again: mining, building and chests are all back.
• Bedrock 26.50 players can join without crashing.
• The pinata at /warp pinata no longer teleports into the walls.
• Several performance fixes.

Coming up in October
The Spooky Set is live for the whole month. See the announcement.

Additional payment methods are here. You no longer need a PayPal account to support the server!

Credit & Debit Card
Pay directly on the store with your card. No redirects, no login, no PayPal account — just enter your details and you’re done. International cards are welcome.

Apple Pay
On iPhone and Safari, check out in one tap with Face ID or Touch ID.

Google Pay
On Android and Chrome, pay in one tap with the card already in your Google account.

Cryptocurrency — new!
Pay with Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH). Choose Pay with Crypto at checkout, pick your coin, and send. For cheaper items, use Ethereum — Bitcoin has a higher network minimum.

Still secure
Card details are entered in PayPal’s own secure fields — AcediaMC never sees or stores your card number. PayPal remains available too, exactly as before.

Smoother on mobile
We also cleaned up the mobile checkout so the terms box, payment options, and buttons line up properly on phones.

One thing to note
Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and crypto handle one-time purchases. Subscriptions (recurring purchases) still need to be paid with PayPal for now — just pick PayPal at checkout for those.

Thanks for supporting AcediaMC — every purchase keeps the server running and new content coming. See you in-game!

Golden Plushies have been scattered around spawn to help you find the 10 easter egg signs.

If you spot a golden plushie, you are near one or two of them.
