•Defense Guide• by Cyclops May 26, 2014 at 6:05 AM UTC

First of all. You do not do this... Never.

Its makes it easier for the other team, they can easily block themselves with wood and break it while you try to find them like a "needle in a hay stack".
Here's some defense strategies to help you.

Pressure Plates/Slabs
Use these items to prevent block spam. Here's an example.


Table Walls (With levers/buttons)
This can help a lot when the player trying to rush in doesn't have an axe :D. Here's an example.


Table Stream
Its a good defense if you want to hold rushing players back for a bit. Here's an example.


Watered Monument
Self explanatory. Water the monument! It makes it more difficult for the other team to break it since the water is constantly drafting them away. Here's an example.


If you have any other defense suggestions and/or different defenses not listed here, feel free to post them below and I will update the most ASAP! :D

I like it! You should also consider adding more types of wall barriers or flooding.

This will not be stickied as only official topics do.
Please do not request the sticky-ness ;P

and how long did it take you to penetrate the first defense on quintus? :P

Doesn't go into detail about any of the defences. All the defences are really basic and it doesn't show any good defences in action.
Very short and basic, doesn't really deserve a sticky if it was to be given one. :L

CONS

Pressure Plates/Slabs:
1. It can be easier for enemies to break them with an axe and a pickaxe.

Table Walls:
1. Easier for enemies who uses an axe.
2. Can be easier if you use TNT.

Table Stream:
1. The enemeies might be able to jump in, block the water, and kills the players in your team with diamond armour.

Watered Monument:
1. They can block all water because it may be called as a cheat.
2. Hackers break it easily.
3. The enemies shot you out of the world (with no walls) and breaks it for a hard time.

But no one makes axes, that is why defense usually is built of wood.
Players are sloths

That is, if the community wants it.

EDIT: Realized it was bumped by two people, one of which should have a punishment by now.
