The first faction within the control point gains control of the KOTH. Enemies must knock or kill the controller to regain access. Controllers must ensure they remain within the control point at all times, otherwise their capture time resets. Once the countdown reaches 0, the controller is combat-tagged for 15 seconds.

=== Capture Milestones ===
A timer is activated when a player first enters the arena. The player with the longest timer is considered 'the capturer'. Leaving, disconnecting, and death will reset player timers back to 0. When the capturer's time resets, the next in line is the next top player in <code>/lms top</code> (i.e., the player with the next highest capture time). There is no timer cap, meaning players may capture the LMS for as long as they like, and reap greater rewards with time. Bosses spawn every hour regardless of whether there are players within the arena. Only one boss may exist in the arena at a time.
Capture milestones of 10 minutes, 5 minutes, 2 minutes, 1 minute, and 30 seconds, are in place to offset the reset time. This means upon regaining control, a faction that lost capture at 3-minute mark will have their countdown timer continue from 5 minutes instead of 15 minutes.

Scaling rewards (money and XP) are accumulated every minute the capturer spends in the arena. These are both directly applied to the player's account (no money note or XP bottles are given). Value from scaling rewards depends on two factors—time spent in the arena, and proximity from the center of the arena (''see table below''). An Elite, Ultimate, or Legendary envoy chest spawns every 5 minutes around the location of the capturer. There is a per-player daily bonus quest whereby players can earn up to 2x quest tokens, given every 5 minutes the player spends.

Location/warp koth
FrequencyDaily (scheduled)
RewardsCombat Equipment (variety; updated biweekly)

The King of the Hill or KOTH is a daily arena event where contesting factions capture a control point for 15 minutes. Rewards include a variety of combat equipment.

Behavior

The first faction within the control point gains control of the KOTH. Enemies must knock or kill the controller to regain access. Controllers must ensure they remain within the control point at all times, otherwise their capture time resets. Once the countdown reaches 0, the controller is combat-tagged for 15 seconds. At this stage, enemies still have a chance to overtake the winner by killing the controller in the KOTH arena. The event is closed once the controlling player leaves combat. Reward is given in the form of a 'KOTH Lootbag' upon leaving the arena. Loot table can be previewed in-game at any time using /koth loot.

Capture Milestones

Capture milestones of 10 minutes, 5 minutes, 2 minutes, 1 minute, and 30 seconds, are in place to offset the reset time. This means upon regaining control, a faction that lost capture at 3-minute mark will have their countdown timer continue from 5 minutes instead of 15 minutes.

Monster Siege

A siege occurs every 3 minutes during which monsters in varying numbers and strength are spawned. A buffed 'KOTH Space Demon' zombie is spawned with 20HP♥ × 10 HP, 20 (🛡 × 10) armor protection that deals 6HP♥♥♥ to 16HP♥ × 8 HP damage (varying by capture duration).

Schedule

The existing KOTH schedule is as follows:

Weekday Time
Monday 09:00 PM UTC
Tuesday 09:00 PM UTC
Wednesday 09:00 PM UTC
Thursday 08:00 PM UTC
Friday 10:00 PM UTC
Saturday 12:00 PM UTC
Sunday 03:00 PM UTC

Limitations

Ragdoll, Shockwave, and (Guided) Rocket Escape custom enchantments will not function. Knockback is limited to 50% the normal knockback. Explosive Snowballs are banned. Upon death, players cannot return back to the arena for 3 minutes. After 2 deaths, players are banned from entering. Disguises are disabled. Flying is disabled everywhere outside the safezone.
