Loka is a Semi-Vanilla, PvP Survival Server that uses custom plugins to create a one of a kind Minecraft experience. Loka has a very rich backstory and has elements of RP among those who wish it. In addition, we also have custom, rated PvP matches if that is your style and a powerful Market system. In terms of Survival, we have no chest protection and thievery/murder is allowed on Loka (within reason).
Territorial Conquest: Found a town, then expand your territories throughout the world. Construct Territory Structures, attack others, defend yours and attempt to become the strongest town or alliance on Loka. Each month, the victor becomes the Capital of Loka and implements Global Policies!.[/anchor]
The most significant aspect of Loka is our 100% custom Town system with progression. With two of your friends, you can build a generator that gives you a Town with build protection and a variety of features. Our Town system requires that you keep your generator filled with emeralds as its main power source. Level your town up simply by playing Minecraft as you normally would; everything counts! As your town levels up, you gain access to Town Perks that enhance your townbuilding experience. [/anchor]
Loka has custom-built PvP systems that we've been running for three seasons, including Warcraft-Themed Arenas, Epic Battlegrounds, and a custom PvP Talent system. If you prefer the more balanced 1v1 or 2v2 brackets, fight in our Arena system. Small maps, quick matches, instant fun! Do you enjoy the more open-ended thrill of a battleground? Join other players in the open-air combat of Battlegrounds.[/anchor]
Market:
Like our Towns and PvP, Loka runs a custom-built and powerful Market system that allows anyone to buy and sell things with the common currency of ores. Prove your agricultural, alchemical, or rare block-finding prowess and become successful in Loka without ever touching a mine![/anchor]
Thievery:
Loka allows thievery and murder, but griefing and mass block damage are forbidden. Loka's thieving community is one of the most skilled in Minecraft. Do you challenge them, join them, or ignore them? Some have thrived through conflict, others have fallen. How will your story on Loka be told?[/anchor]
Story:
Since the founding of the server, Lokans have been no strangers to evil, catastrophe, and mystery. From the feared World-Ender Preksak to the seemingly benevolent god of Asgard, Freyjia, a small host of characters appear from time to time to alter the course of Loka's History. Some players have even chosen to participate and have their roles locked in lore for eternity![/anchor]
Rules:
Our rules are basic in that we do not allow griefing, we moderate chat to keep things as close to PG as we can given the general audience of Minecraft, and we strive to keep the atmosphere as friendly as possible. Be warned though that thievery and subterfuge is commonplace on Loka. It is as much of an element as Town Building, PvP, and RP are.[/anchor]
This is a really amazing server, with a rich history and loyal player base. This is a free server so no op perks are given to those who try and pay to play.
Spawn is simple and easy to navigate, so the wildness is easy to find. You are given the opportunity to either join a town or make your own.
Wars between towns have happened, but even still many towns are really peaceful.
Loka is, without a doubt, the greatest server I have ever been on. Loka has an awesome story, amazing admins, an astounding PvP system, and an incredible server designer, who has made all the town systems possible, the Roleplay events, everything. You can say the most unlikely people will thrive.... Everyone has a chance to leave a mark, good or bad, on Loka. Definitely worth coming to check out!
This is the best server I've ever been a part of. Been playing on it for over two years now, and the reason is that it never fails to surprise me. Whether you're a hardcore pvper, redstoner, builder, or you're just looking for some good old fashioned survival, this server won't disappoint you. If you're looking for a server with lots of RP and extensive, thought out lore, look no further. If you like brewing alcoholic beverages in your basement and drinking cheap vodka until you pass out on the side of the road, this server will also accommodate you. It has a unique system for creating individual towns which you have to maintain and protect from threats from both within and outside your walls. And if it's your style, you can make it your business to go around stealing people's junk and laying seige to their castles.
All in all, no matter what you're looking for in a minecraft server, you're more than likely to find it on Loka. And along the way you're bound to make some good friends, and some enemies too. Watch your back, and either surivive or die. The choice is yours.
Loka's a pretty fun place. Joined July 2012 and have been pretty consistently playing since.
The server does cater to a lot of different players. I'm not a big fan of the PvP system myself, though it is pretty well done. If you don't like to PvP, there's plenty of big building and community projects to help on. You can raid other towns, or defend them. Sometimes big wars pop out of nowhere and those are pretty fun to participate in. If you like Minecraft then I would definitely suggest trying Loka.
This server deserves a try from anyone who's in love with Minecraft, PVP and story telling. The customs plugins made by our server admin Cryptite are AMAZING. Custom PVP games, town versus town game, huge conquest type battleground where you can partake in 6 versus 6 awesomeness, 1v1 ranked and unranked, all the crazy stuff. Best part is it's all balanced and THERE IS NO PAY TO WIN.
Also there are plugins that balances out the PVP for those who have crazy connections (you know when someone just runs at you and they can hit you but you can't hit back a single time) <<< That doesn't happen. I am myself an experienced PVPer and I approve of this server. Makes PVP waaaaaay more intresting than simply having better internet/computer
Loka is a place for real niggas. We have very interesting custom plugins, for both pvp and towns. VoC is the best. Towns are put into a medium sized battlefield where they fight to control and upgrade several towers. You must choose to attack other towers, defend your towers, or leave your tower to gather resources. Towns who do well get various perks until the next VoC can begin.
Zor95, one of our finest.

Or defending against them.
Loads of new pvp updates and server upgrades have made it a very fun server to play on.

If you can gather 2 other friends, you can also build your own town as soon as you have the materials with which to build your Town Generator.
Don't forget the emeralds though, guys, it's a good idea to vote every day and start using the market.
