Bandits

Bandits servers typically place players in an outlaw-focused survival or roleplay setting. Players may form bandit groups, ambush travelers, raid settlements, control territory, take contracts, or trade stolen resources. The exact format varies: some servers emphasize open-world PvP and faction warfare, while others use bandits as NPC enemies or a themed progression path.

Expect multiplayer survival where trust and preparation matter. You may need to protect a base, travel with allies, manage scarce resources, and decide whether to avoid, negotiate with, or attack rival groups. Rules about griefing, raids, PvP, and offline protection differ significantly, so review the server’s gameplay rules before investing time in a settlement.

Bandits can overlap with factions, anarchy, PvP survival, prison-style outlaw progression, or roleplay servers, but the label alone does not guarantee any specific plugin or feature. Check whether the server supports your Minecraft edition and version, whether combat is always enabled, and whether bandit gameplay is player-driven or part of the server’s quest and NPC systems.
