HCFactions Map 25 End of the World

Friday, May 1st we will be ending Map 25.

End of the World activities will start at 5 PM Central Time. The cap point will be active at 7 PM. Come prepared for battle!

The timeline of events will be as follows:

5:00 PM - Deathbans are reset and PvP protection is removed from all players. Server reboot.

6:30 PM - The World Border moves in to the edge of the WarZone. Make sure to be in the Warzone when this happens or you could be teleported randomly!

7:00 PM - The WarZone becomes death ban again and the cap zone at Spawn is active.

Saturday, May 2nd we will have a Purge Event.

Start of the world will be at 12:00 Noon CST the server will be rolled back to 2pm Friday. At that time there will be no factions and no one will be safe. Good Luck! We are open to any ideas for additional events and rewards for that day.

There have been requests for a kit map before the draft map you guys have put together. So, following the purge there will be a two week kit map where you guys will be able to test all our classes and experiment with different enchantment levels.

HCFactions Map 26 Start of the World

There are multiple options for when we start map 26. We can have a short play map after the kit map and start Map 26 the first of June. I'll let you guys make that choice.

There are a few changes that will take place for Map 26. Please read through everything carefully and contact any admin for any questions you may have.

Deathban will go back to 3 days. The grace period before you may use a life or be revived is 15 minutes. Only an admin can over ride that, so if it's a unfair death, please contact one of us right away.

There will now be two Crowbars. One for Spawners which will go up for sale starting from day one and one for End Portal Frames.



The End Portal Schedule is now the follow:



Week One: Find the Strongholds. They will all be in the warzone

First Palace: This is the only way to obtain the first End Portal crowbar. It will be a static reward for every Palace going foward

Week Two: End Portal Crowbars will be a rare KOTH reward.

Week Three: End Portal Frames will go up for sale in our shops at spawn.



Please note when all the portals in the Strongholds are taken we will put the Public Portal somewhere in the Warzone.



The End Dragon being killed is now a 25,000 Shotbow XP Reward for everyone online in the faction that slays it. Good Luck!

Faction land will cost more when resizing. No more crazy claim sizes without a high cost.

Max DTR will always be 5 regardless of what we decide to be the faction size to be. It will still calculate determining on how many are in your faction. So, no 2 man factions with 5 DTR. =p

Admin Participation in the upcoming Draft Map

We have been asked to help enforce the rules that you put in place for your Draft. We have agreed to the following Rules.

No Betrayals for the Drafted Factions. All Betrays that happen will result in a permanent ban. This will be a ShotBow ban. No Kicking. It was requested that we treat Kicking the same way we have treated kicking and killing in the past. If you feel someone deserves to be kicked, discuss it with a staff member if possible. If you are preventing a betrayal, just make sure to send in a modmail to let us know. That means Leaders need to choose their officers wisely!

We are excited to watch you guys battle through this event. We hope that everyone follows the rules and has a good time. If something comes up and a leader needs to be banned or breaks any of the rules we will consult with AlwaysLuke to work out who the next Leader on that list should have been and allow for changes so that no faction misses out on the full experience.



Keep in mind that this is 100% Player created and we are only supporting you guys. All the details of the the process itself needs to be worked out with those leading the Draft.

Remember that we have a TeamSpeak that can be used by all factions. We will try to meet all the needs with sub-channels or permissions. Just contact an Admin.
