Factions System on PVPHT. Complete guide to claiming land, managing members, diplomacy, and all factions commands in Hytale. Join our server to play the best Hytale PVP today!
Ready to conquer the wilderness and build your own empire? Factions on PVPHT lets you join forces with other players to claim land, build bases, and battle for dominance in a hostile world. Create your own faction or join an existing one, forge alliances, declare enemies, and fight for territory against rival factions.
Factions claim land to protect their builds from outsiders. Power determines land ownership — each member increases your faction's claimable territory. Manage diplomacy, wage wars, and expand your empire. Whether you want to lead a small settlement or a sprawling kingdom, your choices shape the world around you.
The factions plugin has been rewritten from scratch for better performance and resilience for future updates.
Power determines how much land your faction can claim. Each player contributes power to their faction's total.
Factions have 5 built-in ranks with increasing levels of authority:
Create custom roles with custom names, colors, and fine-tuned permissions. Control exactly who can build, open containers, invite players, manage claims, and more — 18 individual permissions to mix and match.
WIP: Custom roles are implemented but may not work fully yet due to Hytale limitations. Will be improved in the future!
