Base

Bases are a designated in-bounds location that some or all players may use as their starting area and rallying point.

Some abilities and effects will reference bases in their rules, such as by requiring a player to return to their base, or only being usable while within their base. All players may also use the Replenish at Base universal ability any time they are within their own base.

In many cases, bases will be become cluttered with players as they are typically used as points of interest or the last line of defense during a combat activity. For this reason, it is not recommended to have bases in close proximity to Dead Zones or respawn locations.

Consider the following:
  • Respawn Points in or around bases should be placed in such a way that respawning players are not able to come to life in the middle of active combat or in a position that would be seen as unfair or cheap.
  • Dead Zones should always be placed in a distinctly separate location from bases or else the dead it can become difficult to determine which players are alive defending the base and which players are dead.
