Soulmask host: the checklist so you don't get it wrong

Choosing a host for Soulmask isn't just about comparing prices. Because the game continuously simulates every servant, every NPC and a vast jungle terrain, it brings servers to their knees far faster than a classic survival game. Here's a checklist of five criteria to choose your Soulmask host, ranked by their real impact on your game.
Decisive criterion: single-core CPU power
Most game servers, Soulmask included, lean heavily on per-core performance. A recent high-frequency processor like the Ryzen 9 7950X3D handles the tribe simulation without stutter. Conversely, an old, slow shared CPU will throttle your server no matter how many gigabytes of RAM are advertised. It's the first figure to check.
RAM: the second to run out
Once the CPU is secured, memory becomes the limiting resource. Count generously from the start, because Soulmask consumes even with a few players, and plan a comfortable margin if you're aiming for a community server close to ~50 players.
Anti-DDoS: included, not optional
A server that gains popularity becomes a target. Permanent Anti-DDoS protection included in the offer, and not billed separately, is what keeps your world online the evening an attack lands.
The panel: how many hours does it save you?
A good panel edits GameSetting.ini visually, shows the console and logs live, schedules saves and gives access to the files. Without it, every setting becomes a command-line chore: see everything you can adjust in our GameSetting.ini guide.
Delivery and support: the crash-night test
An instant delivery saves you from waiting to play, and a responsive support team makes all the difference when a crash strikes on a Friday night.
The classic trap: trusting the price and the amount of RAM while forgetting the processor. On Soulmask, it's the CPU that crashes first: two offers at the same price can deliver opposite experiences depending on the chip generation.
What we put in our servers
These five criteria, Fly-Serv brings them together on its Soulmask servers: Ryzen 9 7950X3D, generous RAM, Anti-DDoS and FlyPanel included, from €11.99/month. To frame your budget before deciding, read how much a Soulmask server really costs.
