I have a few. Others, please post them as well.

1) Will there be a PVP Nether and a PVE Nether?

2) If, yes to 1, then will they be different maps this time? (Haven & Shrine's Nether maps were exactly the same).

3) What happens if use Hellgate from Central?

4) Will I be able to use a runestone to the Nether cross-world? (Casting a PVE Nether runestone from PVP).

5) Is Necromancer's Hellgate fixed where it will actually allow a Necromancer to port party members from the Nether instead of them being stuck? (Bug reported numerous times in early 2014).

6) Can a town be built in the Nether?

7) Can a Blaze Spawner be regioned and farmed as was allowed last map? (Per Angyles: Because Blazes are a finite-produced creature, Blaze Spawners can be protected and farmed).

8) Will there be graveyards in the Nether?


Thanks,

Separate nethers for PVP and PVE - Hellgate wont be usable on Central (or wont work).

Right now each server saves its own set of Heroes skills. We need to use bungee to link these skills across server but not sure how simple this is..
@Ampayne2 / @greatman321 wanna check into how easy this is?

Runestones arent usable cross-server yet.

Nether can have towns/regions built there, yes.

I don't really care about Blazes being farmed or protected as long as its not violating rules.

Why would you build a town (a fortress to work out of I understand) since you can not farm there

so no auto-farms, have to kill them ourselves.

Thank you for your response, Kainzo. The Blaze protection/farming seems like it is an unlisted exception to the rules, as Spawner farming is illegal under the current rules...but Blazes were given the exception as I had mentioned Angyles had previously explained, above.

So this is what I see:

Protecting a Blaze Spawner with a /res is legal.

Making a "Blaze Spawner Room" where the blazes are stuck in a locked spot is illegal.

Making it so Blazes (or any mob) cannot hit you while you can hit it is illegal.

Containing a Blaze in such a way that it doesn't wander but can still shoot freely at you is legal.

Correct - just follow the rules. I wish to simplify these rules to make it less of a guessing game. With MythicMobs you can bet your ass all of these spawner rules will probably be changed/removed.

That's coming.
