}}A '''Stronghold''' is a fort with 4 entrances and a control point at its center. The controlling faction gains access to a loot room consisting of a replenishing loot chest. Additional rewards in the form of multipliers and combat perks are also given.

== Gameplay ==
{{See also|Outpost#Capture}}
A stronghold is physical location where players must walk to on foot (<code>/warp</code> is not an option). Each stronghold has 4 walls located perpendicular to the capture point. Control of a stronghold is secured by standing in the control point which increases the capture percentage by 0.11% per second per capturer. Stronghold Mask and the [[Item_Mods#Available_Item_Mods|Royal Crown item mod]] can further speed up the time to capture. Strongholds share the same capture states as outposts.

=== Rewards ===
Upon gaining control, a faction may use any of the <code>[Loot Room]</code> signs located across the stronghold and collect loot from a replenishing chest. The chest replenishes loot once every 2 hours with [[KOTH]] loot. Additional rewards differ based on the map configuration and come in the form of multipliers, combat perks, and more.

=== Defense: Wall repairing ===
Controlling faction can barricade the 4 entrances using normal durability blocks (e.g., stone, glass, wool, etc.) and thereby buy themself some time to defend. Blocks have a durability of 15 points, meaning attackers must break a block 15 times to have the block actually break. This can be sped up using Chain Belt or Easter Basket item mods.

=== Limitations ===
A faction cannot control more than 1 stronghold at a time. Flying is disabled around the control point. <code>/sethome</code> and <code>/tpa</code> are disabled. Ender pearls do not function, however the Jelly Roll item mod bypasses this restriction.

== Map configurations ==
Stronghold maps come with varying pool of rewards. Strongholds located in overworld have a 16 chunk of protected land buffer surrounding them.
