PVPVE ARK SERVER INFO & GUIDELINES

______________________________________________________________________________

We also follow the official Studio Wildcard Code of Conduct for Ark: Survival Evolved. Any breach of their guidelines or ours will result in punishment.

PVPVE GENERAL INFO

  • This is NOT a no-wipe cluster. We perform wipes on this cluster every 2-3 months or if a major adjustment is needed that warrants a wipe. If you have any suggestions for the next season, post them on our discord (connection info can be found by clicking the discord icon up on top of the website here) in the #suggestions channel. We will review all suggestions given throughout the past season and make adjustments based on player feedback.

PVPVE GENERAL GUIDELINES

  • Tribes are not permitted to “team” when it comes to PvP. This includes but is not limited to things such as; Joint raids against one or more tribes, simultaneously defending a tribe from another tribes attacks, coordinated attacks and more. Teaming during PvE server mode is however, allowed.
  • Insiding is forbidden, this includes but is not limited to; leaving a tribe and taking items with you without tribe leader consent, disabling defenses to allow entry to another tribe or causing destruction from within the base prior or after leaving the tribe. Whoever the tribe leader is has full ownership and can do with the tribe belongings and its roster as they please.
  • Despawning or popcorning of your tribes belongings during raid defenses when facing imminent base destruction, essentially preventing the attackers from any deserved loot is strictly forbidden. 
  • Retaliating on our PVE cluster servers is forbidden.
