Factions is a plugin that allows you to make teams or clans to compete with other factions to see who comes out on top! Factions is an AMAZING plugin in my opinion, I haven't played a server without it. You can invite people to your faction to fight other factions, or build your base, so they basically become teamates. With your teamates or by your self, you can claim land to make it where nobody else can break or place anything in your land. However somebody can claim over your land to where they can basically take over your whole land and everything in it. But if your careful, that will never happen!
Also you can ally and enemy other factions to know who your friends and foes are. Also note you cannot attack your allies also you cannot do anything in their land like enemys can. So allying wont put your base at stake.
Neutral factions are factions you havent met or haven't done anything with. You cannot attack a neutral faction in thier own land, so if you are looking to kill and over take there base remember to /f enemy {faction name} them!
Enemy factions are faction you want to knock out and make them quit the server! You can /f enemy {faction name} then if they did you wrong or tryed killing you or people you just dont like! If you are in a enemys faction land attacking them all your attacks are reduced by 30% always note that when going into a battle! Try and drag them into your land to have the advantage!
Power explanation -
Power is basically how strong your faction is, you get power from being online, and killing things. You lose power from dieing.
You use your power to claim land to protect your chests, furnaces, blocks, everything in that area!
However, if you own more land than you have power as a combined faction somebody could come over and claim over your land to steal everything you have in that area! So be careful on how much you claim and always look over your power to make sure you have a good ratio of your power to land claimed! As long as you know that, you should be good with keeping your items, chests etc.!

Chapter Two - Getting started
Getting your supplies -
When you first join a server your biggest priority is finding supplies and gathering them right? Well dont go right at it off of spawn, run at least 1000 blocks away from spawn kill some pigs and cows and get your hunger bar up then thats when you gather some wood and then work for some iron etc.
I would make your self a set of iron armour and a iron sword ASAP incase any mobs come try and kill you or any players would think it would be funny to kill a new guy, and once your strike diamond the first thing you are going to make is a a diamond sword! forget the pickaxe forget the shovel forget the armour, a sword is the very first diamond item you make! Trust me, it is wayyy better than iron and well worth it!
Once you get your bearings its time to make a base, whether its temporary or permanent, it is a crutial part of these kind of servers!
Getting into a faction -
Now, factions could be taking in new members, or inviting people in only to kick them and take all thier items, so be very careful when picking a faction to join!
What I always do on a new server is make my own faction claim my base and work my way up the ranks to become a very powerful then along the way i make some allies and add them on skype and start talking, once we get to trust eachother i decide to combine factions with them to make an even powerful unit and have a buddy to raid and take over the server with! And work from there
On personal expirence I do would not join large factions unless they organize it really well and have a tough way to get in, and they are a very powerful faction, but factions that just let anybody WILL get raided and turn to nothing in a matter of hours.
Just remeber to be careful who you let into your faction or what faction you join!
Chapter Three - Making your base
MAKE YOUR BASE AT LEAST 10,000 BLOCKS AWAY FROM SPAWN
Different bases -
1. Obsidian base!
Pros -
Almost unraidable without claiming
Nice base to lay low and keep your items safe
Cons -
Really hard to make farms, and you have to leave your base to collect wood
Limited space
2. Sky base
Pros -
You can design it to look like a cloud and blend it in!
You can be camoflagued in the air and not that many people look for bases in the sky!
Cons -
Limited room
Shadow on the floor
3. DO NOT make a base like this EVER!!!
Pros - NONE
Cons -
You will get raided so easily
You will be Tntd
You will be killed
You will not win.
Things to know about bases -
Watch out for bases like this!
Bases like this will make you die and lose all your items so be careful on what you do!
When you make your base just remember those different base ideas up there ^. Those aren't the only safe bases, they are just the ones i recommend and are easy to make, and are really safe!
ALWAYS claim your base before you leave it and right after you place a block down!
Chapter four - Trust
DO NOT TRUST ANYONE! Only trust your rl friends and people you have been talking to for weeks and they dont ask for a tp into your base, Don't trust people so easily because people do not care if you quit the server or if you rage, they just want your items!
I do not trust anybody in a server, just my irl friends and i have never ever been raided, EVER so its working pretty well for me.
If you get anything out of this tutorial it is to NOT TO TRUST ANYONE!!! I can't emphasize that enough. I raided hundreds of people from getting there trust then just stealing everything they own.. It's easy.
Chapter Five - Review
To sum up everything, the faction plug in is a plugin that allows you to make teams and go against other ones to see who comes out on top!! It's a complex plug in but sooo much fun! My favorite one of all time!!
10. Tips -
1. Don't Trust People you don't know!
2. Build your base at least 10,000 blocks out!
3. Take not of my base ideas and utilize them
4. Watch out for traps
5. Never ever! tp anybody near or in your base!
6. Be careful what faction you join or who you invite to your own
6. Make iron armour and a diamond sword as soon as you can!!
7. Run at least 1,000 blocks from spawn before gathering supplies
8. If you join a faction, DO NOT bring all your stuff with you, make a secondary base and keep everything there because they might kill you and try and take your stuff, but they can't if you have it hidden somewhere
else
9. Do not Pvp without enchantments and potions, because you will get demolished :b
10.Get one of your irl friends or get someone on the server to talk to you on skype, you don't have to join ther fac, but it makes the game more interesting to play and if your ever in deep trouble you always got someone to help you out, or you have a raiding buddy!
I hope you all got something out of my guide! If you did please hit that green arrow in the corner!

your post was probably moved by a moderator as this is the section for server related content such as Plugins/errors/etc, so it fits in here more than it does in Survival

In the types of bases, you forgot an underground base. These are good for new people on a sever, as they are easy to get resources with, are easily expandable. Cons: Are able to be tnted into. With enough tnt any underground base is can be broken. Underground bases are the most common, so many people often look for name tags and bases underground.

Thossssse are sssssome nice catsssss you have there.”Haha, I do have cats. You can’t come near me now!" HAHAHAHAH BOOOOOM!!! The only creeper in the world not afraid of cats just had to find you, didn’t it.
My opinion is that you can go more indepth with the power chapter.
Like add that 1 power = 1 chunk of claim (16x16).
Also, explain how to gain/lose power. Also people don't seem to know about the 'overclaiming' thing. Maybe explain that more indepth
Anyways, good guide for someone starting a faction's server.
Another base type that I used to do is you mine out 4 chunks all the way down to bedrock. You put platforms every 5 blocks up and water and use the dark to let mobs spawn. Then you make a collector at the bottom so you can kill or collect loot
Hey im a mod on a server and i have a high powered base. It is far underground and only admins know about this. Is that okay or should i relocate?
I would relocate. Because your a mod I would teleport to like 934893849 389843943 3483494343 waaaaaaaay farm from spawn. Or make an bedrock one I would also relocate because waaaaaaaay too many people have xray. I recommend somewhere with lottttsss of looted caves and try to make it all look looted.
It's a good guild but when ever I get away from spawn there are pros camping at spawn killing all the noobs in pocket edition
Lol. If you have a friend I reccomend you tpa to him. OHHHHH TTTTHHHHEEEEEE LLLLAAAAAAGGGGGGG OOOOOOONNNNNNN MYYYYYYYYY CCCCCOOOOMMMMMPPPPUUUUUTTTTTEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!!!!
I traveled to the end and built tens of thousands of blocks out
Then I created my base and set f home. Its huge obsidian layer with water then another ob layer. It is physically impossible to raid because theres no path to it, its just in the void somewhere, and its so high that any higher and you die, and if you go any lower then you die. So... I'm completely safe.
I've been working on this guide for awhile now doing research and putting this together

Add in nether bases and end bases
