Make farming sugercane more fun.

Make spawner main, reject the basic claim
Make farming sugercane

I Think You Guys Should Add Custom Enchantments Back,Thats the reason why i left pika because pvp was no fun without rage enchantment.i would appericiate if u guys add custom enchantments back.

Removing Faction Points could make the gameplay more dynamic and engaging by shifting the focus from repetitive grinding to skill-based activities like PvP, raiding, and strategic base building. This change would help reduce burnout among players who feel pressured to constantly farm points and create a more balanced environment where smaller factions can compete on equal footing with larger ones. Instead of relying on points, the server could implement leaderboards that track achievements like kills, raids, and event victories, rewarding players based on their performance. This approach would encourage participation in custom events and seasonal challenges, making the server more interactive and exciting for everyone.

Balance the special sets some feel too strong some too weak.

Faction points are currently very overpowered and make spawners useless, the factions competing in Ftop barely have any spawners placed (#1 has less than 1% of their value in spawners and #2 has no spawners placed at all). Yes, you lose points if you get raided, but A- you only lose 35%, that's practically nothing. And B- The raiding faction does not get any of these points, so it's meaningless. And it voids most of the payout eligibility requirements. My suggestions are either: Nerf the faction points, make spawners more accessible through various means (More amounts in crates and loot bags, increase the prices of the items dropped from said spawners to be able to purchase more), and change the Payouts eligibility requirement so that at least 50-60% of your faction value must be in spawners to make Raiding more engaging and fun as it should be.

1. Reduce economy a little, it was better when spawners were top economy. Now is 1 silver fish spawner 35 bilion and 1 Diamond Block is 5k.
2. Dont combine santa sets (special) and rage custom enchant in one season it will be so op, so one need to go. I suggest santa boss.
3. Make normal bosses more valuable but to depend how easy is to kill them. I dont know why u added 10 new bosses when they dont work but okey. 4.Make boss loot rewards box stronger and koth rewards too.
5. Maybe add few more pets and masks. Strenght 3 didnt work this season on monarch and munch. Add more useful masks, only masks that people use is grinch, and few from crates (common, unique, godly).
6. I personally think that combiner is on some sets waste of grind. In previous season medalist and other strong sets were meta now u need 32 sets to make them mythical and useful. On top of that santa set can easy be stronger than mythical medalist or other mythical sets.

How to make it more fun u just hold ur left click what else u want ?

Special Sets: just remove Santa sets for future maps, make the other sets more obtainable.

Special Weapons: Some Weapons abilities are suited for pot pvp, which doesnt make sense since its gapple pvp.

Pets: Any pets with "Strength" ability currently dont work, other then that pets are pretty fine.

Combiner: I believe combiner is perfect the way it is, cost prices ect, very good, you have to grind for better teir items

Fund System: I think the fund system should be faction based and not server based since my faction alone had to upgrade every time Teir with 0 help from the community.

Faction Points: faction points should be majorly reduced or if kept the same, Spawners value be increased by Alot since its just point eco.

Custom Enchantments: Custom enchants should just be returned as normal i didnt see any issue with them

PvP in general: Very p2w, op items should be more obtainable by hard grinding (not easy) current it just relies on the /transfer shop.
(anti cheat update is very much needed)

remove faction points i totaly hate them bring back just spawners value, and fix the command /f map cuz its buggy and also remove the common to leggendary armor/weapons upgrade cuz it sucks it takes too much time/money to upgrade (or just remove it from farming armors and keep them it on pvp armors) them and for warzone claims ( faction claims that are attached to the warzone ) there should make a limit of warzone claims one faction can have.

1. Santa Set > KEEP having a strong set u can easily get is good
2. Pets > Buff > Boss pets have too long cooldown and can get leveled up with so much effort ( make it easier )
3. Other Pets > shorten the cooldown
4. Special Sets other > useless if u have santa gkit
5. Please remove the feature where u need to combine sets for a buff. why would i give 2 sets with 2,5% for 3% its more useful to use the sets separatly

Add back /skills breuhhh the one that broke ur armor fast

OpFactions - PikaNetwork 2025
We need your help with the next reset​

Hello, players of PikaNetwork.

A brand new OpFactions season will be happening this month and we decided it is time again to ask you guys, the players, what you would like to see in the upcoming update.
The past few seasons we have made some major changes, especially regarding the PvP at OpFactions.
We have heard positive as well as negative feedback from the community, so we would like to hear your thoughts on this in this forum post.

As always we are doing our best to keep you happy. It is very important that you, the player who plays our server, share your opinion.
Within this post, the community can leave us suggestions and all your ideas for OpFactions to make the best decisions together.

Therefore we would like to hear from you, the community, on what we should add and improve for the reset for the OpFactions server!

If you're interested in helping with suggestions for changes and additions, can you use this thread to discuss anything with other people in our community that you think would be beneficial? Please also leave any bug fixes, small changes, or anything at all (related to OpFactions) on the post, but please be descriptive when giving feedback, and use details on what needs changes.

How do you feel about the current state of OpFactions?​

​

To start things off we want to ask you the question; How do you feel about the current state of OpFactions?​

Please let us know what features you like, and what features you dislike, we are asking for feedback on the following features in particular:​

​

Special Sets​

Are the current special sets to your liking? Are they too strong, are they too weak?​

​

Pets​

The same question goes for the pets. Do you feel like all of the current pets in the roster are a good fit for the PvP at OpFactions?​

​

Combiner​

In recent seasons we introduced the combiner system, to give everyone a chance at grinding for higher tier items, simply by collecting the lower tier ones.​

Do you like this idea? Or do you think its too much work to obtain the best possible items in the game? Would you suggest a change, keep it the same, or should we remove the combiner?​

​

Fund System​

The Fund system allows everyone to work together to unlock certain features in the season, do you feel like this has had any impact, or should we remove this, or make it more of a valuable grind to go for?​

​

Faction Points​

The Factions Top has shifted quite a lot since the introduction of Faction Points, are you happy with the current state of this system?​

​

Custom Enchantments​

In the last season we removed custom enchantments, would you like this system to return, or to be reworked with more custom enchantments? Or are you happy with how it is right now?​

What do you think about the current PvP in general?​

​

We have heard a lot of feedback regarding the PvP at OpFactions in combination with all sorts of special items and boosts we are offering to make PvP more exciting.​

However we have noticed that the community is currently in a split on what is good, and what isn't.​

​

So we would like to ask you all to also spark a debate in the comments below this post about how PvP is in general at OpFactions. We would love to see what you think, and if others agree or disagree with your statements. We are looking forward to what you have to say and can't wait to talk about it.​

​

​

Now is your chance to help us improve OpFactions!​

​

Please take this oppertunity to shape the future of OpFactions with us.​

​

We have always been a community driven server, and we will continue to do so, so your feedback is important to us, so if there's anything you would like us to see, now is your chance, do not miss out on this.​

​

​

With all that being said it is now your turn to leave your suggestions and feedback underneath this post.
Please note: Stick to the topic! Any off-topic/non-related to this gamemode comments will be deleted.

Please take this opportunity to let us know by replying to this message what changes you would like to see going forwards!
You can also let us know what you think of the current ideas we have and why we should add them or not.

Thanks.​

And also remove the faction points only spawners value will be added in faction value so players play more and more and build walls for saving their spawners so they will play more

1.First of fix the server then take suggestions. Mobcoins was removed months ago and they still aren't removed from the special or treasure gkit.
2. Bring back the boss swords as the common pets do almost no damage it takes almost 10-15m to kill a boss now
3. People spent crazy amount on getting those medalist gkits and you make it 2percent damage and reduction we have to wait 7 more days just to get another set and after using combiner it's what 3percent
4. The pika anti cheat is getting out of hands while printing a cannon it banned me 4times. People who are hacking don't get kicked even if they are flying


For the first map of 2025 bring Back the old darkzone as people who have been playing this server for years and quit now is because 1 way or another their favourite place was that darkzone grinding those little mobs in Grace and with steady pace move up to f top

Reduce the number of special sets and gear we can get from transfer so people who just joined the server and are grinding have a chance to pvp with other players rather than getting quick dropped by people with special gear

The server has been gone crazy p2w there's 4 to 5 different hype boxes dropping from grace to end suppling mostly pvp gear so players have a greater advantage over the non p2w players people win crazy amount of pvp gear rather than ranks/gkits like they used to before

The community is slowing disappearing as the new updates are not making the server fun to play but making it hard for them to even think to join

Tbh a limit on war zone claim is not needed it will make people lazy there's a hype in people to get claims as soon as the server starts so they wait for it to reset and if there's a limit that hype will die as there will be no comp of being fast to get more claims for the faction and warzone claims. If everyone gets a share of warzone it won't be factions everyone will just run to their traps what's the fun in that explain me how and why there should be a limit for warzone claim limit

So factions points are almost p2w people buy stronghold etc for keys and etc so people who don't spend money on the game has very low chances to win and every season same factions win the ftop I think that faction points are unfair for non p2w users
