Wither

If you wish to get a beacon on our server, then you must fight the wither in our Wither Arena. It is a dedicated zone in the nether in which you can fight the wither and a few of its allies, and is the only way to get a Nether Star on the server.

For farmable items, like Wither Roses, the wither is able to spawn in the Resource World, but will not drop a nether star when killed.

Wither Arena

The Wither Arena, built by Amixalot, Steve, and Blast

The Wither Arena is a special spot within the nether where players can fight the Wither. You and your friends can all fight the wither together, though only the host will receive the rewards. The fight features numerous difficulty options, with the lowest being equivalent to fighting it in vanilla. You can run around, place blocks, use potions, and anything else you could do in a normal fight. As the difficulty increases, you'll find the wither accompanied by some allies, and it may even start playing tricks on your mind. The only way to find out its true power is to fight the boss yourself!

Party System

To start a party, you first need to challenge the wither with /wither challenge. From there, you can invite players to your party using /wither invite <player>. Each player in your party has one life. If you die, you’re out. The host of the party will be the one to receive rewards for the fight, even if they died and the rest of the party successfully beats the wither.

Resource World

Main Article: Resource World

The resource world allows you to spawn withers for the purpose of collecting Wither Roses. These are flowers that will harm mobs when walked on. Usually, Wither Roses are used in different kinds of farms, but they make for good decoration as well. These special flowers drop any time the wither kills a mob, making them more difficult to obtain than most other flowers. You can learn more about them here. These are the only obtainable items from the wither in this world, as it does not drop nether stars on death.
