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 (/warp 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 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 [Loot Room] 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. /sethome and /tpa 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.
