As a note of transparency, we are aware this update took longer than some expected. We added more than initially planned and as a team we plan to be more efficient in the future.
RULE UPDATES
Clan Punishments
A new policy has been added for clans on KitPvP. This rule states that inviting blacklisted players to a clan will result in possible removal of a clan. The owner of a clan may also be punished if there is consistency in these actions.
KIT CHANGES
Octane (NEW)
Passive Ability: Regeneration I when not in combat.
Boost (3s): Upon right-clicking the ability item, the player loses 1.5 hearts of health and is granted speed 3 for 5 seconds. If tactical is used again before the player is able to regenerate back to full health, the health deduction will be taken from their current health (to prevent stacking this ability)
Launchpad (45s): Upon left-clicking the ability item, the player will spawn a “bounce pad” below their feet, which will work similar to a diagonal sponge, launching the player forward. The bounce pad only lasts for 10 seconds on the ground before disappearing. Unlike sponges, the bounce pad will launch the player in the direction of their current momentum, and therefore can be used from any angle.
Oberon (NEW)
Leaf Sphere (43s): Summons a small sphere of leaves around you wherein you gain Regeneration 2 and Resistance 2. Ability lasts 12s.
Poisonous Field (60s): Summons a patch of flowers that grows as you move around, you gain Regeneration 2 and Resistance 2 and other players in the patch have Poison 1. Ability lasts 15s.
Hunter (NEW)
Passive Ability: Whoever last killed Hunter will have a red trail that follows them around for 30 seconds and can only be seen by the hound tracking said player.
Tracker (20s): Player ‘marks’ a random person within 10 meters of them. Compass now live-updates and points at the mark. Holding the compass will give Hunter information on the IGN, distance, and health of the player they’ve marked. This will last for 20 seconds with a 20 second cooldown after.
Rage (68s): For 8 seconds the player will be given strength 2 and speed 2.
Bomberman
Bomberman armor buffed. Players will gain TNT upon a kill. TNT starts at 3 instead of 2. Maximum of 10 TNT.
Elementalist
Earth bow has been removed.
Snowgolem
Snowball hits will gives longer temporary speed I and regen. Snowball cooldown has been decreased.
Summoner
Summoner will have immunity from their own creepers.
Crossbow
Crossbow arrows start with 8 instead of 6.
Groundhog
Groundhog ability updated and massively buffed.
Screecher
Screecher’s ability sound changed from ghast scream to skeleton horse.
Slingshot
Slingshot Cooldown has been decreased.
Scripter
Kit has been temporarily disabled.
Archer
Bow no longer has infinity. Archers start with 48 arrows and get 7 per kill.
Falcon
Falcon cooldown has been increased.
Hornet
Hornet’s armor has been buffed. Antenna removed.
Glider
Glider’s cooldown has been increased.
Ninja
Ninja’s strength has been nerfed. More similar to the “old ninja”.
Rider
Rider cooldown reduced. Horse now spawns with random jump power. Better armor.
Thor
Thor has been recoded, buffed and given a second ability.
Zeus
Zeus’ lighting box now has a larger range. Lightning strike ability has been buffed. The amount of damage done is much greater.
PUNISHMENT RESET
Closet Cheating Unbans, Unbans, and Unblacklists
KitPvP will not do a punishment reset. However, we will be lenient for specific situations. If you were banned and wish to play for the update, create an appeal, and you will most likely be unbanned. Regarding closet cheaters: Previously, the only option closet cheaters had was to purchase an unban. Since the purchase of unbans is no longer offered, if you were banned for closet cheating you now have the opportunity to do purgatory to earn an unban. Closet cheaters can create a ban appeal but are less likely to be accepted. Blacklisted players rarely get unbanned.
OTHER ADDITIONS
/Disguise
Disguise will be a powerful feature used to assign you a random name and skin for a certain amount of time. Be careful how you use it. It is extremely efficient but takes a lot of tokens! There are ways for players to tell if someone is disguised, but not who is disguised. We’ll let you guys figure out how to spot it. While in disguise, you will be given random stats. You will keep your rank and be able to /color. You will have the same amount of tokens.
Rank Discount:
Super: 25%
Elite: 50%
Legend: 75%
Nukes
For every 100 kills in a killstreak, a player will get a nuke with the radius of 18 that kills players within a red ring in 30 seconds who are exposed to the sky.
Mapvote
Mapvote will allow players to vote for the next map in rotation for 300 tokens. The OG McPvP map is back!
Soup Trainer
Soup Trainer is a new feature that will allow beginners to learn how to refill, focus on clicking, and learn other aspects of PVPing while /souptrainer will automatically soup for them. This feature has been built to train new players in learning how to soup, and will not provide a serious advantage while toggled on.
Note: players that are good at souping will not want to use soup trainer. The bowls do not drop and the soups only soup in your hotbar. They will be at a disadvantage and the souping will be much slower. This is a training tool for newer players who are not as experienced with souping.
Changes / Features Removed
- Slow potions have been removed
- /partner command added for 2v2Sumo
- Waterdrop event fixed
- Bounty limit increased from 1,000 tokens to 10,000
- Bounty tax removed
- EHELPER color now contains italics
NEW MAPS
Edits
Renamed “Soup Assist” to “Soup Trainer.” The name soup assist lead many to believe the training tool would give a serious advantage to all players. That is not the case. Please re-read the section for more clarity.
