Hello, dear JartexNetwork players!

A brand new raiding world, bug fixes, and more are waiting for you this upcoming Friday. What are you waiting for? Let's get right into the features that we have in store for you!

We happily and proudly announce that the official new Immortal Faction's season will be launching on Friday, September 30th, 2022

πŸ’£ New! Friendly Raids
We are proud to announce a brand new and unique feature that is coming to Factions Immortal this season, and that feature is Friendly Raids.​
As the name suggests these raids will be completely different than from actually raiding someone's base, this raid is a well-planned raid with your faction against another faction, with highly customizable settings.​
❔ How do you start a friendly raid?
Simple, you can invite another faction to a friendly raid using /f fr <faction>. Once you have chosen the faction you want to have a raid battle against it's time to select the members from your and their faction, after you have set a group of people participating in this friendly raid it's time to head over to the base settings.​

🏘️ Choose a base you like!
With the friendly raids, you can highly customize the base to your own liking, select the number of walls, toggle sand walls, toggle an ocean for the base, and much more. Once you have selected the settings you like it's time to talk about the wager.​
πŸ’Έ Looking for some competition? Set a wager!
Even though the name doesn't quite suggest it, the friendly raids can be competitive as well. A faction is able to set a wager on a friendly raid, and the loot will go to the faction that manages to breach the other factions' base first. This wager can consist of money, experience, and mob coins from the Faction Bank.​
These 3 parts alone make FriendlyRaids something new and exciting already, but there is one key element missing, every base should be able to have a counter, which is why took it even a step further. You will be able to upload your counter schematics at our website and then you can select these schematics in-game to automatically be pasted inside your freshly chosen FriendlyRaids base, with just a few clicks your uploaded schematic is ready for use! After uploading your counter schematic you can choose to keep it for yourself or to share it with your faction so that they can use it in friendly raids as well.​
These counters will be automatically pasted in the right position and box, will of course not be able to upload schematics with certain blocks, and there are multiple checks in place to ensure that you're uploading a correct counter.​
With this brand new feature, we hope to keep some excitement throughout the map as well, as now you will be able to raid and practice your raiding skills without having to lose your base first, or find someone finally being off their shield.​
πŸ•°οΈ New! Playtime Rewards


Get rewards by simply playing. How great does that sound? Too good to be true? We agree! However, it's happening this season.​
You will be able to claim different milestones simply by reaching the required playtime. Upon your first login this season your playtime will start, the more you play, the more rewards you will be able to claim this season.​
Start out by typing /playrewards and you will find a menu with different tiers of rewards that you can claim, each tier will have a higher requirement of playtime, the further you progress, the better the rewards will be, and all of that for free, how amazing is that.​
☁️ New! Darkzone Weather

Some dark clouds have been hovering over the dark zone lately, and the weather forecast isn't looking too great, we are expecting a heavy downfall in the Dark Zone soon, so be prepared for some weather changes, it will heavily affect the appearance and the functionality of the zones in the Dark Zone.​
All 4 zones will now have their own weather conditions, which will spice things up even more!​

Each zone (the 4 corners) has 4 different Weather Conditions that will happen from hour to hour, and these are the conditions:​

☁️Cloudy
🌨️ Snow
🌩️Storm
🌧️Rain
β›…Sunny
There are a few clouds up in the sky, nothing special. A normal day in the dark zone with no other changes.Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! Those are snowflakes, the minions panic to get their food supply for the winter!

Now minions will spawn x2 as fast on the boss world and have a higher chance of dropping their recipe!
Do you hear that? It seems like thunder has struck the boss world.

All the bosses feel empowered, They will deal more damage in return, and this mystical power will yield more loot!
When it rains, it pours. Do you know what else pours? The Boss's pockets!

You now have a higher chance to slip an extra boss drop from killing it!
The heatwave is the new normal in Dark Zone! Nothing but a good day to rest away.

The bosses feel tired and will take more damage.

⏰ New! Dark Zone Boss Timer

In order to effectively grind bosses, it's good to know when a boss is about to spawn, previously we only send the spawning message after the Boss has spawned, but we have decided to change that.​
Starting from now the Boss Spawn message will be executed instantly upon the boss spawning, so you know what you're headed into.​
On top of that, we will be adding a /bosstimer command, where you can find all the bosses and the next time they're about to spawn.​
With this change, we think the bosses in the Dark Zone will be more accessible, and easier to maintain the grind for everyone.​

🎫 New! Lottery

The lottery will finally make its appearance in Prison, and this time we did our best to make it as user-friendly as possible and make it rewarding yet exciting to enter.​
The Lottery is simple, as a player you purchase a Ticket, and once you have obtained a ticket you are ready to go.​
Every 6 hours the Lottery will drop the Jackpot towards one player that was lucky enough to get their ticket drawn.​
The more tickets you purchase, the higher your chance is to win the Jackpot. The jackpot prize will start off with a small amount but will increase with every ticket that has been sold.​

What are you waiting for, get your Money, Mob Coins, or Experience Lottery ticket using the /lottery command and test your luck!​
🏝️Updated! Dark Zone

The Dark Zone has been a great addition, but we have received some valuable player feedback on how to adjust the Dark Zone further and how to make it more interesting for the players to grind within that world. So that is why we will be making further small adjustments to the Dark Zone.​
πŸ“‰ Reduced the damage output from bosses
The bosses are a little too strong, making the risk compared to the reward too high and therefore not worth the time to kill bosses.​
πŸ“‰ Reduced the health of the little monsters in the Dark Zone
With this change, we hope to make it more worth it to grind these little monsters, as their drops can give you quite some extra money​
πŸ“ˆ Increased top 3 to top 5 damagers
Now more people will have a chance to obtain a Boss Loot Bag, 5 players in total instead of 3.​


πŸ•΄οΈ Updated! Special Sets
Special sets are a great aspect of PvP, so we decided to add some more, as well as fix the issues that there were with the current special sets, here is a list of changes we have made to special sets:​
New! Samurai Set
New! Nike Set
Updated! Bard Set
Seasonal Set

Protection V
Unbreaking IIII

Deal 15% more damage to your enemies.
Receive 5% less damage from your enemies.
1% chance to get Strength IV when PvPing.
A new set coming to the collection.

Protection IV
Unbreaking III

Immune to starvation enchantment.
Deal 10% more damage.
The Bard can play a more essential role, so we added permanent Resistance 2 for players wearing the Bard Set.

The abilities will now also properly stack with existing potion effects.




πŸ†™Updated! Player Levels
We took the time to take a look at the player levels. Player Levels are a great addition to our faction server but they were in a need of some fresh change. We have revamped a lot of the existing player levels and fine-tuned the rewards to make sure everyone is getting a good reward for the time spend on completing such levels.​
You can start completing playerlevels using the /playerlevel command. In order to easily see your current progress you can now use the /leveltask command as well.​


πŸ›οΈUpdated! Loot Bags
Loot bags can now only be found when killing a boss, as a top 5 damaged. For this season we will be expanding the idea of loot bags into more aspects of the server, as well as buffing some of the existing loot bags.​

πŸ’° Updated! Dark Zone Boss Loot bags
Each boss will now have their own loot bag, themed with that boss and some other items. For example, the Goblin Loot bag will be filled with spawners and other utility, while the bear loot bag contains items to enhance your pvping, like enchants, special sets, et cetera.​
πŸ›οΈ Updated! Bandit Base Loot bags
These loot bags that you get as a faction from raiding a bandit base will now be scaling with the season, the further you are in the season the more rewards you will get from raiding a Bandit Base, we want Bandit Bases to be a side activity that you can do throughout the whole season to compete for the Faction Top.​
πŸ‘ New! KOTH Loot Bag
The reward for a KOTH will now be a KOTH Loot Bag, this loot bag will contain all sorts of special rewards, from special sets to seasonal ranks and much more. This makes a KOTH more worth the value as the reward is still hidden after winning the KOTH, with this you can make more profit from just selling the KOTH Loot ag as well!​


🎩Updated! Leaderboards
Statistics are important in a competitive scene, so that is why we want players to stand out, or brag about their achievements. It's okay to be proud, and you should be able to show your accomplishments in style.​
Next to that is that we want players to feel and see their own progression, where are they standing, and how much further they have to go to reach a higher spot on the leaderboards, and that is why we will be doing a complete leaderboard revamp.​
On every leaderboard, you will now be able to view your exact position. This goes for the leaderboards in spawn and newly introduced leaderboards.​
Next to that, the Skills Leaderboard will also receive this improvement.​
With many leaderboards being in a place we also added a global menu to view every leaderboard category, and run /leaderboards to view them.​
☠️ Top 10 Kills
πŸ’° Top 10 Balance
🧟 Top 10 Mobs Killed
🍬 Top 10 Sugar Cane Harvested
🎚️ Top 10 Player Levels
πŸ”« Top 10 of all Skill Levels
πŸ‘Ή Top 10 Mob Coins
πŸ”‘ Top 10 Crate Keys opened
🌿 Top 10 Custom Crops Harvested
