On the day before wipe day, Pleasant Valley (Hybrid Biweekly) turns into a full PVP server with The Purge until server wipe.
• All bases become raidable and players can be killed everywhere except safe zones and the main town TP building.
• Backpacks will drop on death. No items are blacklisted from going in the backpack.
• All traps and turrets can be exposed the day before purge. This is announced by the server above the toolbar.
• All plugins that can affect PVP fairness are disabled. This includes /remove, bulk base upgrading, skipnight, etc.
• Raids should be 1 clan vs the compound. Other players and clans can counter raid, but multiple clans should not raid bases together unless approved by the base owner.
• There are no rules against offlining player bases during purge.
• There are no rules against foundation wiping bases during purge.
• If you log in after purge has started and you find your base has been raided, please stick around. We have a SAR purge kit you can use every 15 minutes.
• We encourage you to have fun during purge! This is the time to test your PVP and raid skills.
• Don't stress about losing your base and items.
• Learn the weaknesses of your compound or find the best hidden turrets in your neighbor's base to incorporate in your next build.
Pleasant Valley is a monthly server that wipes with Facepunch's forced update on the first Thursday of every month around 2PM EST.
• RP resets each wipe and does not carry over.
• Skill Tree levels and XP are reset with each wipe.
• Blueprints are wiped every month.

• Name colors purchased in /s do not reset.
• Custom titles received from playtime goals do not reset.
On the day before server wipe, our server begins the purge!
• Player bases have damage protection for 48 hours.
• Twig is never protected and can be damaged at any time. Players are expected to not damage twig while others actively build, but upgrade your twig as soon as possible.
• Clanmates can log in to reset the 48 hour timer for all clan bases.
• Once a player (and all clanmates) has been offline for 48 hours, their base becomes unprotect and can be raided.
• Consider joining a clan with active players if you think you can't log in within 48 hours to protect your base.
• If you enjoy our server, but need more protection time, try playing on our PVE Server.
• If a base is protected, any amount of damage given will produce a 
message.
• Once a base can be raided, any amount of damage given will produce a 
message.
• If a base is unprotected, any player can raid the base and deal damage to boxes, TCs, and entities within the base.
• While the base is being raided, if a clan member logs in, the base becomes protected again for another 48 hours.
• Sleeping players can be killed by any player within TC auth range.
• Do not leave any items in abandoned bases. /remove the TC you place to kill sleepers, don't leave doors.
• Don't build onto the base and try to live out of it.
Raidable NPC Bases are a great way to gain resources and boom while practicing or enjoying raiding bases.
There are 4 different difficulty levels:
• Primitive: You can only use melee weapons, melee tools, basic arrows. No boom or fire damage.
• Easy
• Medium
• Hard
• Get to the NPC raids through the portals at /town.

• Each raid island has a recycler and a repair bench for public use.
• Free raids will be in the SW and SE islands.
• Purchased raids will be on the NE island.
• Players can use /buyraid to purchase Primitive and Easy bases to raid.
• Players won't be able to build temporary bases or deploy items on the raid islands.
• Do not be in the base area when a new base is spawning. It will kick you into the water.
• All raids are profitable if you take door path and raid efficiently.
There is a loot indicator UI. The raid is complete once all items are looted. The TC does not count as part of the loot table.
Once a player raids a NPC base, they and any clan member that assisted, will be locked out from starting another raid for 15 minutes.
There is an achievement for raiding NPC bases. Only medium and hard bases count toward this achievement.
