Arena

The Arena contains dedicated areas for fighting mobs and The Wither. It is located in its own world to allow for more tailored server settings, and to minimise its performance impact when not being actively used.

The Arena can be reached via a portal located at the Overworld spawn.

Overview

Several server settings are adjusted in the Arena world to provide more of a challenge and to offer additional gameplay options. The mob cap is set 10x higher than in other worlds, so sizeable mob hordes are possible. Charged Creepers and Illusioners also have a (higher) chance of naturally spawning. Mobs capable of picking up dropped items have a 100% chance of doing so if they encounter any. The weather is always stormy in the Arena world, allowing free use of riptide and channeling tridents.

Dying in the Arena world drops 90% of your XP so there is less of a penalty. Dropped Elytra, Tridents, Bows, Crossbows, Netherite/Gold/Diamond/Iron tools/armour are immune to fire or explosions in the arena world, making them less likely to be lost after death.

When arriving at the Arena world, you can travel to the left to find the Wither Arena, and to the right to find the Mob Arena, Farm and the Respawn Room.

Mob Arena

Arena 1.png

The Mob Arena is a dedicated area for fighting hostile mobs. The arena building itself cannot be edited or destroyed by mobs or players. 

The main entrance to the Mob Arena is the large door at the front-centre, but other entrances and exists also exist. There is also a viewing gallery to the right of the main entrance, where other players can watch the action safely. It is best not to hesitate when entering the Mob Arena, as mobs will happily use the door you have opened to leave.

Respawn Room

To the left of the Mob Arena entrance is the respawn room. It serves as a (relatively) safe area for players to respawn and resupply before fighting in the Mob Arena. The room contains chest for storing and sorting gained look, a cow to provide milk for removing status effects and a lost and found area to place encountered items dropped by other players for later recovery.

Farm

A small farm is located in front of the Mob Arena, which can be used as a food source for replenishing health. As with all public farms, please ensure to replant after use.

Wither Arena

We are still finishing this area off. We will announce once it is open for public use.

The Wither Arena is a dedicated area for fighting The Wither, and is the only place where The Wither can currently be spawned. It features a large open area offering plenty of space for fighting, as well as multiple Wither spawning areas which can theoretically be used at the same time for larger scale battles. The Wither Arena is partially destructible and will be damaged by Wither Projectiles and other explosions. The outer walls of the arena building are not destructible, so Withers should not be able to escape entirely.

At the rear of the Wither Arena is the rest room which can be used as a relatively safe spot to heal and reorganise during the fight. This room is not destructible.

Reset Button

The rest room also contains the Wither Arena Reset Button (TM), which will reset the arena shortly after being pressed. Pressing the button will start a 5 second countdown before the arena gets reset; pressing the button again during this time will cancel the reset. Once the 5 seconds have passed all players, dropped items and tamed mobs will be teleported out of the arena. All remaining mobs will be killed and the arena will then be reset to its initial state, repairing any damage.

The reset button has a 30 second cooldown after each successful use.
