 Who attacks whom plays very little role as the damage is randomly applied to one of the two (either the one who got attacked, or it may be reflected back to the attacker). When player A hits player B, the probability of player B dodging and retaliating automatically (and thus reflecting the full damage that they'd receive back to player A, ignoring A's armor) is higher the closer B is to their base and the further away A is from their own base. Who attacks whom plays very little role as the damage is randomly applied to one of the two (either the one who got attacked, or it may be reflected back to the attacker).

-{{::basedist.png?400 |}} The distance from the base is calculated as the Euclidean distance in 3D space but the player's height is always zero. The base's height is some number, which, when increased, effectively causes a permanent increase in the calculated distance. The height of the base increases every time the player dies in PvP and it also naturally increases and decreases based on a complex formula that aims to prevent certain exploits where a player would move their base at a location without being actually there. You can see the effective distance from your base, as well as the direction to it, by holding a compass for 10 seconds.+{{::basedist.png?400 |}} The distance from the base is calculated as the Euclidean distance in 3D space but the player's height is always zero.

 Players do not drop items or XP when killed during PvP by a player's attack. But they will drop these if killed by a trap. To avoid having players use this as a non-vanilla way to teleport to their bed, it will also apply an unremovable slow curse for a length of time proportional to the distance that the player teleported by dying. Players do not drop items or XP when killed during PvP by a player's attack.

Slap while looking upwards to reset it so that it shows distance from your base again. Hover your mouse on the compass to see what its target is.

-{{::fatigue.png?400 |}}Adds a fatigue system to slow down breaking blocks and a fail chance to crafting items. Fail chances start at 75% while fatigue increase from breaking a block starts at 300% higher, which corresponds to a 75% slower mining rate. The fail chance increases by 3% per day and the effective slowdown imposed be the fatigue bar increases by 3% per day, never exceeding 75%. The fail rate or the slowdown gets multiplied by a fixed factor every time you craft something (whether you succeed or not) or whenever you break a block, and both are tracked separately for each type of item/block. {{::craftfail.png?400 |}}Failing to craft something means you lose the materials. Crafting 10 items at once is treated at 10 sequential events which can fail individually and improve your fail chances between them. Whenever you break a block it adds an amount of time to your fatigue bar. Your fatigue is reducing all the time at a steady rate.

-The daily increase means that nobody can be an expert at everything, as you need to keep investing time into something if you want to keep the fail chance or the fatigue increase for it low. To keep your fail chance almost stable close to 50%, you'd need to craft 1 item of that type per day, or, for block break fail chances, you'd need to break about 128 of that kind of block per day. You can check your fail rate for crafting an item before you craft it, as long as you already have one lying around, by slapping a crafting table with the item in hand. Check the [[wastage]] page for details about wasted materials depending on the batch size.+The daily increase means that nobody can be an expert at everything, as you need to keep investing time into something if you want to keep the fail chance or the fatigue increase for it low.

-In addition to the uses, the Shrines plugin will keep track of players shrine score, which is sometimes used for [[competitions]]. You can see your current score as a number next to your IGN in the tab screen. You can see the top scores with the /toprank command. You can transfer your score to another online player by saying "I honor you username" and slapping the shrine block with an empty hand. If you instead say "I dishonor you username", then you will lose your score but also cause an equal loss of score for someone else who is online at the time. The scores in the tab list are on a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale|log scale]] so don't expect them to add up or subtract from each other like regular numbers. We're using a base 1.1 logarithm so ever 7 points increase in the tab list scores signifies almost a doubling of the actual score of that player. Every single point of tab list score increase is actually a 10% increase in someone's actual score.+In addition to the uses, the Shrines plugin will keep track of players shrine score, which is sometimes used for [[competitions]].

You can transfer your score (effectively your probability to win) to another online player by saying "I honor you username" and slapping the shrine block with an empty hand.

 Finally Shrines add epic mobs. About 1 every 111 mobs that spawn will be epic, with buffed speed and damage. Epic mobs will fake their death multiple times (on average 6) and teleport to the player. When they attack the player they will either change the item the player is holding or apply a random debuff for 4 to 10 seconds. Killing an epic mob counts as a massive offering to the gods but the gods can become bored of epic monster types in the same way they become bored of materials. Finally Shrines add epic mobs.
