ManticPickaxes

A Better Mining Experience
Give your players a pickaxe worth progressing. Earn rewards, unlock upgrades and work towards the next prestige, all through clear in-game menus.

Build a dedicated prison mine, add progression to a survival server, or create a mining area for your server economy. Choose the tools, materials, rewards and progression that suit your server.



24 Included Enchants
Mix practical upgrades with rewarding mining abilities:

• Arc Flash — chain through adjacent eligible blocks with a lightning effect.
• Quarry Pulse — mine eligible blocks across the surrounding horizontal layer.
• Impact Burst — break eligible blocks around the mined block.
• Autosell & Smelter — sell eligible drops or smelt them as you mine.
• Coins, Gem Finder & reward enchants — build your mining economy around configurable rewards.
• Night Vision, Haste & Feed — useful upgrades for longer mining sessions.
• Fortune, Efficiency, Unbreaking, Soulbound and more.

Configure enchant levels, upgrade prices, currencies and ability settings to create your own progression. Add custom ability-based enchants through configuration or extend the plugin with its developer API.



Mine Zones Without Mandatory WorldGuard

• Select two corners and manage your mine through the in-game zone editor.
• Choose mine materials, rewards, access rules and regeneration settings.
• Use shared regeneration or personal packet-based mining, where each player sees their own mined blocks.
• Show a temporary waiting block, such as bedrock, until the block is ready again.
• Save pending regeneration so restoration can continue after a restart.
• Configure protection bypass per mine, while retaining the pickaxe's own access checks.

Progression With Long-Term Goals

• Pickaxe XP, levels and configurable prestige progression.
• Multiple pickaxe types with custom appearance, lore and ownership rules.
• Bulk enchant upgrades and bulk disenchanting with configurable refund ranges.
• Player settings for personal preferences.
• First-join tool delivery and staff commands for giving normal or maxed tools.

Your Mining Economy
Coins and gems are included, and you can define additional currencies. Reward players with currency, items or console commands, globally or per mine. Create a mining shop with categories and offers, then let players spend what they earn.

Use internal sell prices or supported shop integrations for Autosell. Connect external currencies through the currency API or PlaceholderAPI and commands.



Give Players A Reason To Compete

• Leaderboards for mining totals, individual materials, levels, prestige and currencies.
• Mining Rush events with XP and currency boosts.
• Timed mining competitions with configurable rewards.
• Scheduled competitions with a selectable time zone and next-start placeholders.

Made For Your Server
Customise tool appearance, messages, menus, enchant costs, currencies, shops, rewards and mine settings. Use the in-game mine editor for day-to-day setup and YAML files for detailed customisation.

PlaceholderAPI support lets you display mining statistics, balances and competition information on compatible scoreboards and holograms. A separate developer API JAR and Bukkit events are available for custom integrations.

Required: ManticLib 1.0.53.5 or newer; use the appropriate library build for your server and Java version.
Optional integrations: PlaceholderAPI, WorldGuard, mcMMO, AuraSkills, Jobs, Vault, ShopGUIPlus and EconomyShopGUI. Install the relevant plugin only when using that integration.
