Getting Started

MCDrugs is the longest-running Minecraft Drug server. The entire server economy is based on selling drugs. Drugs can be acquired by either growing them (most Minecraft plants and crops that can be grown can be sold as drugs), or by becoming a police officer and selling confiscated drugs. This article will aim to give a quick overview of the main features of the server, and provide enough information to help you get started.

Reading this entire article isn't necessary to get started - you can start playing, and refer back here when needed. If you don't want to read the entire thing before playing, here's the basics:

• Grow Minecraft crops, or "raw drugs", and sell them to make money.
  • You can sell drugs by going to /spawn and following the redstone trail.
  • Watch out for police in blue leather armour, who can take your drugs.
• Make drug combinations in /lab, which sell for more than raw drugs.
• Spend your money to rank-up and earn rewards with /rankup.
• Drugs grow faster in the Farm worlds, which you can get to with either /farma or /farmm. To see where each drug grows fastest, use /drugnames.
• Use the Wild world (/wild) for Factions bases and vaults.

MCDrugs Basics

Drugs

Selling Drugs

Selling drugs is the main method of making money on MCDrugs. To sell drugs, go to /spawn and follow the redstone trail to the drug selling house. Inside, there is an NPC that you can right-click to open the drug selling menu.

But watch out - police patrol spawn and will try to frisk you and take your drugs. Police wear distinctive dark blue armour, and you should avoid them if you have drugs in your inventory. If a cop right-clicks you and you have more than a few drugs, your drugs will be taken and you will go to jail for up to a few minutes.

Tip: As a new player, you have two hours of protection from police. Use this time to scout selling routes before you start selling lots of drugs!

Raw Drugs

"Raw drugs" are any regular crop in vanilla minecraft that can be sold as a drug. This includes items like wheat, sugar, netherwart, etc. Selling these items is a good way to get your drug empire started.

Tip: Drug combinations are made with raw drugs, so even if you have no drug formulas yet, it can be beneficial to look at the combinations and make your first farm based on which combination(s) you plan to unlock!

Each raw drug has a drug name. For example, wheat is "High Quality Weed". It's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the drug names. You can easily view all of the drug names at any time in-game with /drugnames.

Tip: Farms can take a while to set up, so it's best to start out by growing only one type of crop. Sugar cane grows fast and is easy to farm.

Drug Combinations

Selling raw drugs will only get you so far. For an even greater profit, you'll have to start selling drug combination. These are combinations of raw drugs, and sometimes other ingredients, which will always sell for more than the sum of their components.

Drug combinations are crafted in the /druglab menu.

To make a drug combination, you must first have the right drug formula. See below for more info on drug formulas.

Drug Formulas

Drug formulas give you access to craft drug combinations in /druglab. To unlock a drug formula, you must redeem one Blank Drug Formula in /formulashop. This will give you a voucher item, which you can use to unlock access to craft the drug combination.

You don't start off with any Blank Drug Formulas, but you'll receive some for your first few rank-ups, and then they are occasionally rewarded for further rank-ups.

Ranking-Up

The main purpose of money on MCDrugs is to rank-up. You start off as a Junky, and can work your way up to the RASTA rank. Once you have enough money, you can rank-up with the /rankup command.

Each rank has rewards, and ranking-up gets you closer to Drug Lord status.

Once you complete all of the ranks, you can prestige, which will set you back to Junky of the next prestige, and earn you a Prestige Key and Museum Bust, among other rewards.

To see the costs of each rank-up, use /ranks.

Worlds

The main gameplay of MCDrugs has four main worlds: Spawn, Wild, Farm-A, and Farm-M. Each world has unique features and advantages, and you should familiarize yourself with them before building your first farm.

There are a few more worlds, see worlds for information about them.

Spawn

The main functions of Spawn are selling drugs, gambling, and using player shops. This is where you start, and it's a safe place to be, as you're invincible while here (besides in prison, see below!).It's also a fun place to explore, as there's tons of hidden areas and details.

You can get back to the Spawn world at any time with /spawn.

Wild

Wild is intended to be used for Factions bases and vaults. As you'll see shortly, the limitations of the Farm worlds make Wild the natural choice for this purpose. It's not recommended to make farms in Wild.

You can get to the Wild world at any time with /wild.

Farm-A

Farm-A is the automatic farm world, and is intended for automatic farms that can be harvested automatically. Like Wild, this world also has Factions, but the TNT resistance of obsidian is lower here.

Valuable items cannot be stored in chests and containers here.

To incentivize automatic farms, the following drugs will grow faster in Farm-A:

• Sugarcane
• Cactus
• Melons
• Pumpkins
• Mushrooms

You can get to the Farm-A world at any time with /farma.

Farm-M

Farm-M is the manual farm world, and is intended for manual farms that must be harvested by hand. This world does not have Factions, so be sure make a well-hidden farm underground!

Valuable items cannot be stored in chests and containers here.

To incentivize manual farms, the following drugs grow faster in Farm-M:

• Wheat
• Nether Warts
• Potatoes
• Carrots
• Cocoa Beans
• Beetroot

You can get to the Farm-M world at any time with /farmm.
