Factions Resources: Docs, Wikis and Plugins
The most useful factions references are the FactionsUUID documentation (a widely used factions plugin), minecraft.wiki's PvP and TNT cannon tutorials, and the pages of the event plugins behind KOTH and envoys. Each entry here was checked on its own site on 24 October 2026.
Which documentation is worth reading?
| Resource | Link | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| FactionsUUID docs | factions.support | Definitions (power, over-claim, raid, TNT bank), every /f command, permissions and faction upgrades |
| minecraft.wiki PvP guide (Java) | minecraft.wiki | Combat terms, kit types, enchantments, techniques and a factions section |
| minecraft.wiki PvP guide (Bedrock) | minecraft.wiki | Bedrock techniques and game modes |
| minecraft.wiki TNT cannons | minecraft.wiki | Every cannon type, loading method and defence |
Which plugins run factions events?
For server owners and curious players, these Modrinth pages describe how the events work:
| Plugin | Event | From its page |
|---|---|---|
| VelKoth | KOTH | Capture and score modes; faction members can capture together |
| SH-Koth | KOTH | Capture or score hills, solo and team modes, scheduling |
| AxEnvoys | Envoys | Supply crates from the sky, flares, random or fixed spawns |
| CrazyEnvoys | Envoys | Custom prize crates dropped around spawn to fight over |
| SupplyCrates | Envoys | Scheduled drops; supports 1.8 to modern servers |
What does each resource teach best?
- FactionsUUID docs: the exact meaning of power, over-claiming, DTR and the TNT bank, and the full /f command list with flags such as /f claim --radius.
- minecraft.wiki PvP guides: combat techniques for both editions, kit types, enchantment advice and common mistakes.
- minecraft.wiki TNT cannon tutorials: how cannons are loaded, aimed, timed and defended against, in WarGear terms.
- Event plugin pages: how KOTH and envoy rules can be set up, which explains why every server's events feel a little different.
How should you use these?
Use the plugin docs to understand the general rules, then always read your own server's wiki, because every server changes numbers and adds its own systems. Our explainers summarise each topic in plain words: power and claims, KOTH, envoys and raiding.
Where is the ArtemisPvP factions guide?
Everything about factions on our server, with live numbers, is on the Factions guide and Factions basics.
Frequently asked questions
Where are the FactionsUUID docs?
At factions.support.
Is there an official factions wiki?
Factions is a server game mode, not part of vanilla Minecraft, so each plugin and server has its own docs. FactionsUUID's docs are a good starting point.
