Everything to know before you connect. Another question? That's what Discord is for.
The full guide lives in the wiki
Factions, combat, economy, commands: every system of the server is explained in detail.
With Minecraft Java Edition: Multiplayer › Add Server, address play.pvpfaction.net. The accepted version is shown on the Join page. All the details: Joining the server.
Follow the Start in 5 minutes guide: welcome area, starter kit, first faction. The essential commands round it off.
Playing is free. The shop only sells cosmetics and out-of-game comfort: no in-game advantage, and no in-game currency. See Buying in the shop.
Generate a code on the website, type /lier <code> in game, then enter on the website the 4-digit code shown in game. A linked account unlocks messaging, voice chat, the shop and appeals, among other things. Step by step: Link your Minecraft account.
/f create <name> to found your own, /f join <faction> to join a faction that invited you. It is all on Create or join a faction.
Yes: your first minutes of play are safe from PvP. How it works and how to remove it: Newbie protection.
You lose part of your money, and your gear waits for you for a limited time in a grave. See Dying on PVPFACTION and Graves.
After a hit, you are combat-tagged for a few seconds: disconnecting during that time means being killed and losing your inventory. See Combat tag.
/rtp sends you somewhere random in the world, away from territories; zaaps then connect the important places. See Getting around.
It is proximity voice: you hear the players near you in game, from your browser, the desktop app, the mobile app or the mod. You need a linked Minecraft account. See Proximity voice chat.
Check that a player is actually in range, in the same world, with a voice client open, and that your microphone is allowed. The full list of causes: Voice troubleshooting.
Yes: PVPFaction Connect on Android (messaging, friends, faction, voice) and PVPFACTION Voice on computers (voice with global push-to-talk). See The mobile app and The desktop app.
Those that give no advantage: performance, display, key bindings. Anything that automates, sees through blocks or reveals other players is forbidden. See Anti-cheat and allowed mods.
In the moment, /report <player> [reason] in game; for a case with evidence, the website's Report a player form. See Report a player.
Yes, from the website's appeal page (/appeal), with a linked account. One request at a time, and a 30-day wait after a refusal. See Appeal a sanction.
The full rules are on the Rules page, to be accepted from your account. Principles and sanctions: The server rules and Sanctions.
Out-of-game comfort: better microphone quality in voice, a coloured "speaking" indicator, message formatting, more headroom for your tools. Never an in-game advantage. See Subscription ranks.
Account settings › Billing › Cancel my subscription. Your rank stays active until the end of the paid period, with no further charge. See Cancel or change your subscription.
Under Account settings › Billing: every payment has its numbered invoice and receipt. See Billing and invoices.
Yes, in the cases set out in the terms of sale (purchase not delivered, double charge, defect, withdrawing from a rank within 14 days…). See Withdrawal and refunds.
Type /lang in game; your choice is shared with the website once your account is linked. See Change language.
Turn on two-factor authentication, on the website and, if you want, when joining the server. Nobody in the team will ever ask for your password. See Secure your account and Two-factor authentication.
Apply from the website's Staff page. You must be an adult, have linked Minecraft and Discord accounts, a minimum playtime and no recent sanction. See The server team.
