Helios is a unique Minecraft server located in the United Kingdom, running version 1.20.1. This server combines various mods and plugins to enhance the Minecraft experience through an Era-based Progression system in a build-oriented environment. Many players often feel disappointed by servers that quickly fizzle out or lack engaging content, but Helios offers a consistent and immersive gameplay experience that keeps players coming back. The server's diverse selection of plugins, such as McMMO, Towny, and SiegeWars, along with mods like MineColonies and Serene Seasons, ensures that there are plenty of activities and mechanics for players to enjoy.
The Age Progression system on Helios is designed to add depth to gameplay, allowing for a rich role-playing experience where technology and the playing environment evolve over time. With its innovative "soft reset" feature, players' progress is preserved despite changes in the in-game Ages, providing a sense of continuity. Starting with basic vanilla+ content, players can look forward to the introduction of advanced technologies and civilizations, including those brought by the Create Mod, as they engage in various activities like building towns, forming nations, and surviving divine challenges. To join the server, players will need to download a specific modpack, which can be found on CurseForge.
