Land Claiming
Learn how to claim land in Theatria using the chunk claiming system.
Claiming land is an important feature on Theatria, allowing you to secure your builds and resources. Claims are made on a per-chunk basis (16x16 blocks), and you'll need in-game currency to claim land. Here's how to get started:
How to Claim Land
Stand in the area you want to claim.
Use the command:
/claim.
Tip: Try the command /claim auto to automatically claim chunks as you walk around! This is perfect for creating larger claims quickly and easily.
Important Notes:
Claims are limited by ranks. To increase your claim limit, you can rank up!
The initial cost per chunk is $5000.
You can earn money through various activities detailed in the Economy section of the wiki.
