Luxwander

We are happy to announce that we are starting to test out the Cosmic Minigames server with our first minigame: LuxChess

You can now grab a friend, click on the NPC at spawn, and get to the arenas! In the future we are interested in adding leaderboards and chess tournaments. As always, if you have any suggestions please feel free to leave it in #community-feedback and if you find any bugs please let us know in #help-and-support on Discord!

How to play:

To select or move pieces hold the name tag in your hand then left click to select a piece and then right click to move the selected piece. The selected piece will show all possible moves. The last moved piece will also be noted on the board. All games can last up to an hour and thirty minutes with five minutes to make a move. If you do not move in this time, your turn will be forfeited. The goal of chess is to checkmate the opponents king, however, if the clock runs out...

Get ready to rock and roll! The long awaited ranks and roles update is here. Staff are now organized into teams, new ranks, and have additional staff roles. Builder roles are added and applications are now open on the forums. New earnable community roles are also available.

All ranks are prefixed to a players name and all roles are suffixed to a players name in game. Roles can be accessed in game with the ‘/tags’ command. Pioneers have access to the ‘/tags color’ command to change the color and formatting of their role.

Why We Wanted to Change Staff Ranks

We wanted to give staff more recognition for their individual roles as well as lower the bar for new staff with more entry level ranks. As the server grows we are also looking for more talent not only related to Minecraft itself. We now have different staff teams and roles to better reflect to players how staff contribute and to help recognize their contributions!

Staff are now laid out into four separate teams, staff...

Floatyrock Skyblock and the Rank Update are now released!

We are proud to announce the release of Floatyrock Skyblock, which is Luxwander’s take on the popular Skyblock gamemode! On Floatyrock Skyblock you will progress through a series of detailed missions and challenges to build up resources and money to upgrade your island and rise to the top of the leaderboards.

The Story of Floatyrock Skyblock

A powerful entity from another dimension has broken reality into many pieces opening up portals between different worlds and dimensions. Once you are strong enough, you can venture off into the mysterious Fracture at spawn to fight off the hordes of evolved monsters that have been released into this world with the sole purpose of destroying everything.

If we can manage to hold off the invasion and kill enough of the monsters, we can use their resources to craft much stronger weapons and armor. Once we are much strong we can use to finally try and reach the mysterious...

The following was originally posted on our Discord on 12/31/2019.

Hello Wanderers,

Luxwander has returned and like many others I am filled with nostalgia and joy. The launch went better than I could have ever imagined. I was so surprised by the huge turnout and outpouring support.

Luxwander means so much to me and as I know it means so much to all of you. Many of us have literally grown up with this community. I thank you all for your patience and support. I won’t let you down!

Moments like these reinforce and make me feel emboldened in my efforts to rebuild and regrow Luxwander and maybe even eventually surpass our previous success. None of this could be possible without you, the community, and the bonds we all share.

I have met many people on Luxwander that are now my friends for life and I know several members have had similar experiences. Luxwander isn’t just a minecraft network, we are a family. Sometimes we have our moments, but at the end of the day we are all...
