Where you can fight
| Area | PvP |
|---|---|
| Spawn | Off |
| Warzone (the ring around spawn) | On |
| Wilderness | On |
Ender pearls and chorus fruit thrown from outside can not land in spawn, so running into spawn with a pearl does not work. More in Spawn, the Warzone and the Wilderness.
The combat tag
A PvP hit (given or taken) puts you in combat for 30 seconds. You do not see a timer; you only get a message when something is refused. While you are in combat you can not:
- teleport:
/spawn,/home,/tpa,/warp, the team home, - claim kits or open crates and Endervaults,
- send gifts, or open the merchant and bounty menus,
- leave or disband your team, remove a truce, claim land or accept an alt invite.
Every new hit restarts the 30 seconds.
Who you can hit
- Teammates can not hurt each other.
- A truce works the same: truced teams can not hurt each other.
- Everyone else is fair game outside spawn. Name colours help: green is your team, pink your truce, red everyone else.
When you die
- You drop your items where you died. Keep spare gear at home.
- You respawn at world spawn, or at your bed if you set one.
- Your Souls stay safe: dying never costs Souls.
- If there is a bounty on you, your killer may claim it.
Tips
- Do not start a fight you can not finish: you can not teleport away for 30 seconds.
- Fight with your team and set a team home inside your claim.
- Never fight with your best gear far from home.
