PvP

PvP on PetalMC is strictly consensual. By default nobody can hurt you and you can’t hurt anybody.

How it works

• Both the attacker and the target must have PvP enabled for any damage to land. If either side has it off, hits simply don’t connect (this includes arrows and other projectiles).
• Turn it on with /pvp on - this is announced to the server, and your chat badge changes from ☮ to ⚔ so everyone can see you’re dangerous.
• Turn it off with /pvp off.

The fine print

• 30-minute cooldown between toggles - no flicking it on for a cheap shot and straight off again. Landing a hit on another player also refreshes your cooldown, so you stay opted-in for a while after fighting.
• You can’t toggle while other players are within 30 blocks of you.
• No PvP in safe regions (like spawn), even with both sides opted in.
• Winning a consented fight awards 25 XP. Kills and deaths are tracked in /stats.
