Same as Toxicly,
I Didn’t spend a single dollar on my rank and i had Overlord, although i do have to agree that as a new player with no rank the server is a huge struggle, especially if you don’t kit daily farm on alts, I’d suggest new players to find spots where people don’t farm,when i play i usually kill the people that are farming irons and i ignore basically every iron, unless they immediatly lootsteal me,after i kill a diamond i usually leave some loot on the ground so if you’re new just wait for certain players to win a fight and pick up the leftovers i guess, once you have an Sharpness 3 some god apples and a punch bow just start focusing weak players with good gear ?
