Journey to Elysium PvE Rules - Compendium

[Marnixxie]

Introduction​

Because that the PvE and PvP in the world is seperated, there will be seperated rules too. This thread applies only to the PvE side of the world, and may under no circumstance be applied to the PvP side, except when the same rule is stated in the PvP Rules Compendium.

Enderpearls? Are they game for getting in through normally impossible ways?

And let me just clarify, rule 13, means that everything in our base has to be accessible 24/7?

Your personal home does not need to be accessible.
Your own-made town does not need to be accessible.

1. You may not construct or use mob grinders to grind exp.

That means no endergrinders like these in current SMP?

So we should be more careful with enchanting.

No endergrinders, indeed.

Thank you for clarifying this! Also....

Is a contraption that pushes the spawn of a spawner down a hole tall enough not to kill them considered a grinder? This would make the creature very easy for the player to kill and get xp. I never knew the exact definition of a grinder.

 

[Awwwyea]

Marnixxie I still don't understand the whole rule 13 thing (OH GOD DON'T HURT ME PLEASE) Could you uhm, explain?

Does it just mean entrances to natural things? Manmade things? Chests? Portals? etc.

9. You may not construct or use mob grinders to grind exp.

What you mentioned is a typical example of a grinder.

No it is my bad, I will edit it to make it more clear.

Before I have edited it, it only counts for entrances to the pvp-side of the world and default set towns.

 

[cheatyface]

My guess would be that rule 13 means: If you use it as a door, everyone else needs to be able to use it as a door too. So, you can block your chests, but let people see your home since it's a pve zone anyway.

[edit] Or marn could ninja post while I'm posting.

 

[nitasu987]

Marn, are we allowed to take over the default towns by force and claim them as our own? Will there be some sort of quest system? Is PvE going to be No-PVP?

PvE = no PvP

You can live in there, but there is no point in claming since you cannot build/modify in it.
Nor you may block off the entrance of it.

There is a quest system.

 

[nitasu987]

=D So I can basically build my own Town, Stronghold, Empire, whatever?

Yes, you will find out about the benefits of a town once the town applications are up.

 

[nitasu987]

apps? so we have to apply to build a town or lead one?

 

[Marnixxie]

If you want all the benefits provided from an official town, you will have to apply!

But in case you don't need them, you aren't forced to apply for it.

 

[nitasu987]

ohhh sounds ok then :D

 

[chris360kss]

I don't like the stealing rule, no way to defend yourself!

 

[Vatowski]

I don't like the stealing rule, no way to defend yourself!

You may steal, as long it does not break any other rule

If you place a dirt block over your chest and the person destroys your dirt block in order to access your chest, it would break rule number 4 which is the no griefing rule. So yes you can protect yourself from it

I know that, but what if you are in your house with a chest open? Sone could walk straight in and take your stuff, and you couldn't do a thing about it! D:

well ya, just like in vanilla smp

Why didn't you lock off your door then?

 

[Defiant_Blob]

Ah, I assume you can't lock off your door if someone happens to walk into your house? E.G. someone walks into my house, I can't place a block in front of it?

 

[chris360kss]

Why didn't you lock off your door then?

Because it's PvE not PvAPWBDIPVE (player vs annoying people who be dicks in play versus environment)

But i'll live with it

That adds to "You may not construct traps.", I simply suggest one to be careful when they don't live in an official town. Though, when you live in such town only members can access chests(if wished for), which is something I rather more suggest.
