All the features are very reasonable. The developer really understands what you mean.
Great support (I think you won't need it because the configuration is easy and works perfectly, definitely because the developer really understands what do you need) I made the right choice when purchasing this plugin
Never really rate plugins, but this is one of only two plugins I have ever purchased (the other being an AC so slightly required) and I have never regretted it. The plugin has absolutely everything you could ever need for a PvP server. Thank you for keeping this plugin up all of these years!
Thank you for the nice review, glad it worked well for you!
Version: 3.34.27
Honestly, I’ve been using the free version of PvPManager for years, so recently I decided to get the paid version in order to support the developer. The plugin is great, it has all of the necessary features to help you properly manage combat on your server and it isn’t bloated with ton of useless features. Although we don’t have a lot of players in combat at once, performance is also on point - you won’t really notice the plugin taking a lot of resources.
The only downside is probably support being a little slower than usual, but that’s understandable, especially considering it’s summer. Most of the time, you won’t really need any external help as long as you throughly read all of the comments in the config file & the stuff on the wiki. The only exceptions are probably some edge case scenarios, but I’d say they happen pretty rarely. In terms of updates, they don’t happen as often, but I’d say there isn’t really a need for frequent updates if there aren’t any bugs or issues. Overall, PvPManager is quite the bulletproof solution and a great choice for anyone looking for a combat manager without a thousand features you won’t end up using!
Thank you for the review, will get some updates soon.
I just tend to rush updates when there are urgent bugs but lately it has been stable in general.
Version: 3.33.1
plugin is incredibly unstable in production environments. crashed a ~160 player server twice in less than 24 hours, this isnt the first time we've had issues either. gonna drop this after 6 months of usage
Where are your issue reports? Absolutely nowhere because you made none.
There's really nothing here that could cause a server to crash in the first place, several servers with 150+ players running with no issue. Given you're using some random outdated paid server fork, it seems more likely for that to be your issue than anything else.
Feel free to provide error reports otherwise please move on.
Version: 3.33.1
I want to use the 'soulbound' feature of another plug-in. But this makes the item drop. How can solve it?
If you have DropMode set as ALWAYS then PvPManager shouldn't impact item drops at all. I don't think there would be any compatibility issue but if there is any, then you would need to post more details on github or discord so we can figure it out.
Version: 3.33.1
I've been using this excellent plugin for over a year now, and it remains unparalleled in its field. The author consistently supports it, providing regular updates and improvements. Moreover, they are highly responsive on Discord, addressing and resolving any issues promptly. I highly recommend this plugin to anyone seeking reliability and top-notch support.
Support at the highest level!
He spent many hours with me until i was able to find the best my server settings. Now I am very satisfied and everything is working perfectly. This plugin is worth every penny spent on it. Let's support this project to live he forever...
Many thanks to this outstanding developer!
I've been using this plugin for over years now and it's amazing. Issues are fixed fast, ignore the bad reviews. They're simply ignorant on how to run a server optimally
Thank you for the nice review, they did have a point about support being slow recently though but I'm glad it always worked well for you!
Version: 3.18.10
The plugin has bugs!! Many people reported them! But the developer just ignored this plugin! The bugs are not being fixed!! The bug with NPC not spawning on 1.19.3 has not been resolved for 2.5 months already!! Why make the plugin paid then?
Not worth the money. No support and the placeholder for pvp mode is bugged. That was the main reason I "upgraded" to the premium version. Very dissapointed.
I'm sorry for the lack of support recently, you can change that placeholder in PlaceHolderAPI's config under boolean. Let me know if you need more help in a ticket, I'm going through them now
Version: 3.18.10
When the dev was active it was a good and fun plugin to have, since then the dev doesnt seem to care about it, no response in his discord server both tickets and general chat, avg(2,576.87ms per - 1.33ms/0.00 per tick), literally freezes the server every time someone joins for a couple of seconds the moment the server hits 16+ players
The plugin has not been updated for some time but I can guarantee that freeze is not caused by this plugin. It's either another plugin of yours or your server isn't very strong.
Version: 3.18.10
This combat plugin is perfect for large networks, I highly recommend it. And the support is very good.
Very cool plugin. I use it on my SMP server so players can toggle PvP. Maybe you could add a "keep inventory on death chance" in the configuration :). I would love to see this feature.
Would it be possible to add a placeholder kill rank system to this plugin later this week to be able to attach this rank for kills to chat?If this appears it gives 5/5.
Please reply quickly as this is one of the last items before opening our new mode. The start of which we have planned for the next weekend.
This is not the right place for suggestions and no, that won't be added this week
Version: 3.17.8
Pvp is disabled by default for players by default, even if you have it enabled in the configuration the plugin disables it and there is no way to enable it if it is not by command, fix that and I will give it 5 stars. that users enter with pvp enabled by default
PvP is enabled by default and players can't even disable it without permission for the pvp command. Configure or report the issue to your permissions plugin.
This is an amazing plugin I have been using the NPC feature is amazing so people dont wrongfully lose their stuff and the developer is so fast to help out when something is wrong 10/10 plugins outstanding.
Hi. The developer ignores for 2 months, when asked to add something, he says that it is useless (cooldown for some things), and he often deletes messages
I don't know who you are on discord, I searched but couldn't find anything like what you describe. I haven't ignored anyone, not intentionally anyway. Either way, I'm not your personal developer nor am I obligated to add any new features, you purchase a plugin for the current features it has. I do add new features but any new ones should be considered a bonus and if you want custom features specific for your server then pay someone to do it.
About deleting messages, not sure what you mean, if you mean in discord I do delete messages from people that post a message on a channel and then copy paste the same message on a ticket, I just leave the ticket one where I then reply to it.
Version: 3.16.7
Un gran complemento de combate que vale la pena adquirir e implementar en su servidor, buena atencion personalizada por parte del desarrollador del plugin y esta muy atento a los problemas.
Reviews are not meant for questions, you could have just used the discussion thread, discord or a private message.
You can disable elytras by setting "Glide" to true under the "Block" section in the config though.
Version: 3.13.25
Tenia la versión lite pero quiero mejor haber que tal 10 de 10 <3 excelente plugin
At the moment, the best plugin for controlling PVP content, there are no others, I advise everyone, the developer is responsive and almost instantly fixes problems!
Excellent all in one PvP manager, it does combat logging, NPCs, toggle PvP, newbie protection, all in one plugin. The developer is super responsive and gives support, and was very helpful.
Sorry about that, uploaded it just now. Thank you for the review!
Version: 3.12.1
I was receiving some errors due to a conflict with the Factions3 plugin. I reached out to Chance and received a brand new build that fixed the issue within an hour. Exceptional support, thanks!
My environment is OpenJ9 and Spigot1.15.2. When I shut down the server, I always prompt [PvPManager] Failed to cleanly remove a team. Please report this bug. Plugin version-3.10.0
That was a debug message i added, you can safely ignore it, it will be removed in the next update. But thank you for your report and your review!
Version: 3.10.0
I don't usually leave reviews but holy crap, this plugin is insane, it covers legitimately every single aspect of a PvP Manager you could think of, the developer is actually super nice, responds super fast to issues and is actually just an amazing person. If i could i'd rate it 6 Stars but i can't which makes me sad. 20/10 Would recommend
Thank you for the review! To be honest, you are also one of the nicest buyers i have, glad to hear you like the plugin.
Version: 3.9.1
Very good complement! If you are looking for a good and well done pvp system then this is the one. Also, its creator is attentive and will help you with any questions you have. My 5 stars well earned. Exelent job!
Best pvp-toggle plugin so far. Would be lovely to have PlaceholderAPI support build in so I can show players pvp status on the tab list or sidebar of my server without having to write the script myself.
It had only passed about a week and a half since i last replied, that is not even close to abandoned. Either way you are not entitled to 24/7 support just because you purchased the plugin.
Version: 3.8.17
These developers really do care about their customers. I wanted the plugin to do a certain feature and Chance over at their discord support channel responded to me SUPER QUICKLY and created my request for my certain version of spigot in a couple hours!!! I've never had such awesome support before and can't recommend this plugin enough. 10/10
Great fix my man. I appreciate it. you solved my issue nearly immediately, a few hours after the bug was reporting. You were prompt in your response on Discord as well.
Thanks for the ever-great plugin. Server can't live without it. I love PVP and I hope my players do, too!
Thank you for the review! If possible can you list which messages you would like to see customizable on github or the discussion thread?
Version: 3.8
I really liked your plugin.
We went to 1.13.2 and waited for updates.
You updated me! Thanks a lot!
However, there is something that doesn't work.
I think it would be great if you could fix these bugs.
Used this plugin as long as I can remember - it works better than any other pvp toggling plugin out there! Unfortunately, the developer isn't very active anymore, and performance is poor on 1.13.x.
Great plugin for a respectable developer. I have found a way to deal with the thing I messaged you about, SD. So you can disregard our conversational PM. I apologize for bothering you!
Might I kindly request where you prefer Plugin Suggestions as well as Bugs to be reported, please and thanks? :D
I have a couple suggestions that I'd really appreciate if they were implemented, and I have no known bugs I can address right now, but in the instance I do I would love a area to properly report them at.
I'm glad that you were able to resolve that situation.
For the suggestions, my preference would be that they are made on the github issues page. I admit i haven't been very attentive lately but it's where i will check for them once i start working.
Version: 3.7.5
Greatest PVP plugin out there, without all graphic stuff like nametags or glowing effects it works really well, only lacks in quality pve control
This plugin solved "PVP or PVE?" problem for my server. I was confused a bit by WorldGuard region flags at first (forgot PVP flag was set for global). Really great plugin!
This is just great. Lot's of tears have fallen on the keyboard's when combat logging for sure....
But what's been missed on our server is the k/d ratio logging? We had a plugin that had the feature in the distant past, and it got really popular amongst the PvP'ers. This would really nail PvP Manager if it got implemented. :) Thanks for a great plugin. Worth every moneypenny!
This plugin is great. Got tired of having to explain the "opt-in" pvp system my server uses. With a little bit of configuration, players can chose to participate in pvp or not, with relative ease. Love it.
Ive used your plugin before the free one, i didnt mind buying this cause i used the free one along time ago. I install this plugin, have it all setup. But the inventories get glitched, players cant move items in their inventory. After turning off all the settings, I still get random players inventory glitch, and it can't be fixed, pvp turned off, they relog and nothing. The only way i think it might get fixed is if i restart the server. I wanted to use this plugin but ill just use a free one. I really hope this plugin gets better .
First of all, this plugin doesn't touch anything related to moving items in inventories, so most of that review is pointless. Second, you seem to have put the plugin without restarting the server, that should be ok with this plugin but it's not recommended to do.
And you posted a review without making an issue first, i don't know what else to say... Anyway, ask me for help if you need it.
Version: 3.7
This plugin works perfectly. I've used it for over a year now, and the developer has been active and helpful the entire time. My players and I trust it to manage PVP on the server and configuration allows me to tweak it to do exactly as I need. I'm really surprised to come on here and see all the negative reviews below me, I have never had a problem with this plugin.
Very good plugin and development. Author responds in comprehensible ammounts of time. Issues with the plugin are few (They do exist, however are solved relatively quickly)
What are you talking about? Ignoring that you didn't even make any attempt to report bugs, saying nothing works is absurd. Everything works fine excluding some minor errors that don't affect the plugin functionality and will be fixed soon.
I am 100% certain of it working as i run it on my own server. If you want to report any bugs found that would be nice.
Version: 3.5.8.3
Many errors in console while using features of this plugin. For example, executing /pvp disable comman cause errors. Hope the author will fix bugs.
The author is inactive. Many bugs reported and no answers.
Even reported on github, still no answers.
I'll give five stars when there will be a support there.
Until that i'll not recommand to buy this plugin, cause there are bugs.
Need a Pvp TImer for New Players? [CHECK]
Need Combat Tag for those loggers/warpers? [CHECK]
Need a active Dev who updates his work? [CHECK]
Need more info read the Description.
Does what it needs to do and has active support.
5/5
We used your Plugin now long time in the free Version, too, so the player can freely choose whether PvP / PvE . The Premium version has convinced me and is always up to date ... and I hope that this remains in the distant future.
hehe used your Plugin now long long time in the free Version and your useage of the Plugin for PvE and PvP together in the Premiumversion now made me to buy it :D a great plugin and i hope you take on its development and support ;)
Extremely bad plugin, full of bugs of all kinds, even DUPLICATION !
The author is inactive, he doesn't maintain his plugin anymore letting you struggle with all the bugs that he refuses to fix. Don't buy this plugin !!
Really good and efficient plugin. Does what it says.
It needs some quick updates with the following features though:
- Adding a cooldown on things such as money reward/penalty & commands on death
- Adding a placeholder with player names usable on commands on death
- An API with methods like "isPlayerInCombat" (! HIGHLY NEEDED !)
This is the best PVP Manager ever. It is working perfect without any errors, amazing performace. It is really very usefull. The server is a unique server with it, The developer is amazing, he deserve to be the best developer on spigot. My best wishes.
Very nice plugin.
Could you either add EchoPet support, or go simple and add commands that execute when a player goes into combat?
I could have the player execute "/pet remove" when they go into combat, to prevent them from using them as an escape.
Thank you for the review.
I will add commands executed when tagged.
Version: 3.3.2
Still an amazing plugin I recommend all server owners with a pvp server to purchase since the plugin is amazing and the developer is very helpful and active.
Amazing plugin works perfect and I think it's the best anti-log plugin I've ever seen! Before I had some problems with this plugin but now everything is fixed and found no errors in the console, keep doing the good work!
