Combat Modifications on Prime Vanilla

Prime Vanilla features several custom combat modifications to create a fair, fun, and competitive PvP experience. This page summarizes the key changes and plugins that affect combat on the server.


1. Combat Tag​

  • Prevents unfair escapes during PvP.
  • When you hit or are hit by another player, you are "combat tagged" for 20 seconds.
  • While tagged:
    • Teleport commands (like /spawn, /home, /tpa, etc.) are disabled.
    • Riptide tridents and elytra flight are disabled.
    • Entering spawn (the only safe zone) is blocked.
    • Logging out while tagged results in death and item drop.
  • See Combat Tag Guide for full details.

2. Fast Crystals​

  • Removes the delay when placing end crystals for smoother, fairer crystal PvP.
  • Toggle the feature for yourself with /fastcrystals.
  • Makes crystal combat less dependent on ping and more about skill.
  • See Fast Crystals Guide for more info.

3. Blast Protection Knockback (Pre-1.21 Mechanic)​

  • Blast Protection knockback resistance works as it did before 1.21: You only get reduced knockback from 1 piece of Blast Protection armor.
  • Wearing more than 1 piece does not further reduce knockback, just like in pre-1.21 Minecraft.
