Factions Eternal - JartexNetwork 2021

Hello, dear JartexNetwork players!
Ever since the recent EULA changes factions has been put on a hold. Today I can finally tell you that we found a proper solution regarding the EULA and a fair and healthy competitive gamemode like factions, which is what we will be trying this new and third season of Factions Eternal.
Due to this a lot of things will not be the same as they used to be anymore. The competitive nature behind factions will always be an important aspect, which we are not willing to remove, in order to keep the prize pool at the end of each season we had to make a lot of required changes.
We decided it's time to remove the 'Pay2Win' aspect from our faction mode in order to keep the previously mentioned healthy competitive aspect.
There are 2 main reasons behind this decision
- To comply with Mojang's updated EULA agreement for servers
The updated EULA for servers is more lenient. All of our gamemodes are compliant except Factions, due to it's competitive nature & payouts. - Attract new players who are seeking a no p2w established factions server
We hope to attract new players with this change, nowadays finding a faction server with no pay2win features is a rare sight, and we hope this change will do well for some new players to try out JartexNetwork Factions.
We happily and proudly announce that the official new Factions Eternal season will be launching on Friday, July 16th, 2021.
It will begin with a one-week grace period, after which a map lasting 5 weeks will begin.

2nd Prize: €50 Store Coupon for factions
3rd Prize: €25 Store Coupon for factions
After being in contact with Mojang we now have a clear vision on what is allowed and what not. Due to the returning payouts to factions we had to make a huge amount of changes related to the packages we are selling/sold on the store. With the returning payouts it means that Factions will once again be a competitive gamemode, which makes things a bit more difficult. We took the time to make sure anything is complaint with the current rules of the provided EULA. This means the following things have been changed:
Removed Donator Kits
Donator kits will no longer be a thing. If you own a rank there will not be a kit that you can claim every 24 hours. Kits will still exist but are only obtainable in-game, from drops, to the new boss crates. Kits are no longer included in your donator rank. Donator ranks will still have other features that do comply with the EULA.
Removed Crate Keys
We have fully removed the crate keys as you have known them for years, the crate keys will be replaced with the Boss Keys.
Removed GKits
All GKits on Factions Eternal have been removed. Anyone that previously owned a gkit will receive an in-game currency that you can spend. This currency can be used to purchase other store items on factions.
Changelog
Here is the list of the changes made for this reset. I highly suggest you give a good read over all of these to make sure you are familiar with the most recent updates and are not missing out on important details.
New! Builds / Worlds
Every season needs its brand new spawn and buildings, therefore we've decided to have a Jungle Theme for this season. We loved how it turned out to be, and we hope you all do too! There will be a jungle-themed warzone around this spawn, which will different KOTHs that you can capture for some extra rewards.
You will also be able to find supply crates that have been dropped into the warzone every hour. You can claim these supply crates by clicking on them to receive some great rewards!
Corners
There will be a total of 20 corners, these being the following:
Over World (/spawn)
- The border for overworld will be 10,000 x 10,000 (-5,000 to 5,000) - Spawn in the middle.
- 1,000 x 1,000 warzone.
- Koth at each side of /spawn close to spawn.
- All chunks preloaded.
The End (/warp end)
- The border for endworld will be 10,000 x 10,000 ( -5000 -> 5000) - Warp in the middle.
- Flat sandstone from Y:1 to Y:30.
- 1 Koth.

Updated! Heads for F-Top
We have decided to give it another try, the F-Top system will be running the grinding system again. Your value will be determined on the amount of mob heads that you have grinded.
This way of grinding to win has been attempted before on our Immortal Realm, we did some required changes to make it fun and fair for everybody.
Gather spawners to start grinding, or jump in to the new updated Wild Area where you can kill some smaller mobs in a chance to boost your grinding, the choice is yours.
Start your grind by using the /f heads command which will give you the head-storage wand. This wand will turn a block inside your claim in to the core of your faction. Inside this core all of the heads will be stored. Be careful as others who will raid your base will aim for the core. Hitting it will reduce all mob heads by a certain percentage.
New! Faction Competition
A new way to add extra value to your faction besides grinding will be a newly introcued system called Faction Competitions. The competitions will start automatically and will give your faction a specific task to do, kill the most blazes, sell the most items, farm the most sugarcane, simple tasks that you and your faction can complete.
Every day a new challenge will be started, and the winner will be rewarded Faction Points. These points will be calculated in to your faction value. Each week the value of these points will be increased for the competition. So it's worth to participate in this new way of competiting for the faction tp.
Updated! Wild Area
Ever since season 1 of Factions Eternal we have had a small Wild Area where you could grind mobs for Wild Dust, this dust could be sold inside the shop for quite some extra cash. This season we will be fully revamping the Wild Area, the following changes have been applied:
New! New mobs
New! New and much bigger wild area
New! Mob drop rewards that will help you grind
Updated! Bosses
New! Bosses & Boss Keys
Due to the removal of crate keys we decided to add an alternative to this, Boss Keys. The way these keys work are the same as crates, the way you receive them however are completly different. In order to make a fair replacement for crate keys you will now have to summon a boss in side the Wild Area.
Boss Eggs
Boss Eggs can be purchased on our store, and drop a bunch of keys all together. The boss can be summoned inside the Wild Area. Once you summon a boss an announcement will be made in chat that someone has summoned a boss inside the Wild Area. This makes it fair for all players as everyone can contest this boss. PvP is enabled so you have to make sure you are prepared to take on a small fight to receive the keys.
Boss Keys
A boss will drop a set amount of keys. The amount of damage you dealt to the boss will be the percentage chance you will have to receive each key. If Player A damages the boss for 80% and Player B for 20% it means that Player A will have an 80% chance to get the predefined key drops, if it fails it will go to Player B with a 20% chance. The rewards will always drop and will always be the same. The more damage you deal the more keys you will receive. If you do 100% of the boss damage you will receive all the rewards yourself.
There will be spawning a few, weaker and less rewarding bosses throughout the weeks as well, so make sure to keep an eye on the Wild Area. To get better keys you will have to purchase a boss egg at store.jartexnetwork.com.
Updated! Custom Crops
We made some required changes to custom crops and added some extra ones that you can unlock. The prices have been increased so it is worth your time to farm them once again.
Updated! Transfer Shop
To make grinding even more worth we made improvements to the transfer shop. The shop will now have a static shop and a rotating shop. The rotating shop has a limited stock on valuable items every 24 hours so make sure to get online daily to stack up on some extra items. The static shop will still include useful items that you can buy at any given time to make things a bit easier for you and your faction.
New! Extra Charms
With the new and improved Wild Area and more grinding to do we thought it would be a good idea to make some new charms related to these things.
Minion Mania
Increased rewards from small minion mobs inside the Wild Area
Guarding
Receive less damage from bosses & minion mobs inside the Wild Area
Muscular
Deal more damage to bosses & minions inside the Wild Area
New! Tags
Tags are a new way to stand out in chat. You can earn tags by purchasing them on our store, or by getting a few of them available in-game. Some tags will be appearing in the transfer shop, some are obtained by grinding in the Wild Area. So if you are planning to become even more fancy make sure to check out the new /tags.
New! Faction Bundle
This is a brand new bundle we've decided to implement, a bundle that will provide your faction with all of the items you need to get started. In order to receive this bundle, you must have a total amount of 20 members in your faction. You must contact a member of Team Factions on our Discord server or a staff in-game. Keep in mind that you may be questioned prior to receiving the bundle, as we'd like to ensure fairness to everyone. These faction bundles include temporary ranks, trench tools, chunk busters, and even more to get you and your faction settled!
