Tbh, no one actually wants to pvp on the server, and dying is almost impossible with a set of god armour and a few pearls considering the lack of a pearl cooldown and the 1.9 sharpness enchant nerf.
A way to revive pvp on the server would be buffing the dmg (so that people can actually die), adding more blocks to the /info siege list or something like that since nowadays trying to win a siege is almost impossible (even if the defender lives in a 3×3 stone box considering cannons got nerfed) and adding some kind of pvp rewards (i.e. Kill 3 players who’re part of an enemy crew, Get a pvp streak of “X” ammount of kills).

Lol back to the “I know how to “FIX” PvP” lol

Problem with buffing damage, is new players are killed a LOT easier by peolpe that already have OP gear, like you just make it 1000x easier for OP players, that are already too op to destroy people much easier.

A better alternative, would be to reduce the protectiveness of OP armour, If armour is easier to break and do damage through then you can actually kill people.

Siege needs a complete overhaul, i want someone to re-program it from scratch. Im waiting on the GriefPrevention to separate siege from the main plugin as he said he would do a year ago, still waiting., then we can have our own custom siege. Find the siege post from a year ago to discuss.

(Response to the gun comment ^)

In my opinion, guns would level the playing ground. It’d mean a deckie with a gun could take out someone who’s been playing for years. It’d also be more realistic too.

I’m also all for it, because it would mean I’d actually be able to fight people. I’m a lot more handy with a gun. >:3

I saw disbanding crew, though it’d make defeating others correct as it would in theory be “the destruction of the crew”, would possibly prove to be unpopular as it could be very upsetting.

Though I’m afraid of stating the pint that it would bring money out of the eco as people remake their crews, would encourage more banding of people as well from different backgrounds so a greater more interlinked community and less crews and more politics

But it’d be annoying if one large crew suddenly disappeared, so rather perhaps like in factions, a “power system implemented” and every time a new member is added (whom is active) adds to that power and it gradually regenerates for everyone, but goes down a each time a member dies, and let’s say if a crew member of a crew with higher power if killed by a crew member of a crew with a low power- loses more power, i don’t know about that one though as it’d again encourage small, overpowered pvp crews to form.

There could also be a factor that the longer a crew member is offline their power eventually goes in negative numbers (like perhaps -10 as the lowest limit) encouraging crews to perhaps regulate their members, and maybe have a way of freezing certain important members (like me) power (to like 5) so they can keep them but can only do it to so many members (which HAVE to be inactive for like 5 days, and only after those 5 days can have their power frozen to a limit of 5).

I do see the focus on encouraging pvp, perhaps there could be a way that if people once they get so much of their waring crew’s power down, or if they get their power down past a certain mark, their entire crew gets an exp boost for a couple of days. Killing people could instead invoke an reward, rather than just adding to their statistics or whatever that person holds. -just an idea

Allies could perhaps come in somehow with the crew power thing perhaps also? Making people tactically think about who their allies are could encourage them to think more about who they add as an ally, and allies which perhaps are more detrimental could reduce their allies crew power.

I think this could make it slightly more complicated though, as I know it took me a while even to understand how PirateCraft worked, and I’m yet to understand game modes such as towny (which i don’t know how people find that fun).

Maybe something like what CrazyPirate said about levelling the playing field, which I can see is what the  anti-cheat is there for, but maybe again, bonuses if people use weapons in war which are weak, such as maybe leather and gold, instead of things such as iron or gold. This could perhaps encourage crews who are good at pvp, whom have good skills, to perhaps ‘take the risk’ against crews and player who may not have the godsets or skill to punch above their weight but can get basic diamond and iron gear, perhaps levelling the playing field(?).

But I know some people spend a lot of time building their vaults etc, and building up resources, which yes can be annoying if people can’t get to them, but perhaps with these ‘levelling the playing field’ tactics, which can encourage higher pvp crews (or any crew) to use (and carry) less powerful gear, to get boosts in exp, get random prizes (like spawn eggs, books with enchants, saddles, horse armour, blaze rods), but no money prizes.

I don’t know, I know there are problems, but whenever I get on PirateCraft they surround pvp, which don’t bother me as such as I don’t play to pvp on the server.

@Palmerageddon, I do not mean to be mean but

like blood and guts said(aka George Patton)

and like Ben Franklin said “The heart of a fool is in his mouth, but the mouth of a wise man is in his heart.”
