GuardiansChest 1.0

 GuardiansChest | Ultimate Treasure Event System

Turn your server into a high-stakes battlefield of rewards, danger, and competition.

GuardiansChest delivers automated treasure chest events that spawn across your world — guarded by deadly mobs, packed with rewards, and designed to create intense PvE & PvP moments your players will chase.

 The Experience (What Players Feel)

A beacon shoots into the sky…

A global announcement triggers…

Players rush across the map…

But the chest?

 LOCKED.

Hostile guardians surround it. A boss emerges.

Only those who survive the fight earn the loot.

This isn’t just a chest.

It’s an event.

 Locked Chest System (Core Gameplay)

No cheap grabs. No instant rewards.

✔ Chests cannot be opened until ALL guardians are defeated

✔ Includes boss mobs per chest tier

✔ Forces real combat before rewards

✔ Creates natural PvP hotspots

Result:

Players must fight → survive → earn → win

 Dynamic Chest Events

• Fully automated spawning system
• Configurable spawn intervals (minutes → hours)
• Randomized locations across your world
• Smart spawn zones (distance, height, center control)
• Multi-world support

Your server stays alive — even when staff aren’t online.

 Rarity System (Risk vs Reward)

Three tiers of escalating difficulty:

 Common

• Frequent spawns
• Light guardians
• Starter rewards

 Rare

• Stronger mobs
• Better loot
• Higher competition

 Legendary

• Deadly encounters (e.g. Warden bosses)
• Lightning effects + visual impact
• Best rewards on your server

Each tier has:

• Custom guardian mobs
• Boss configurations
• Separate loot pools

 Guardian & Boss System

Every chest is protected by:

• Configurable guardian counts per rarity
• Custom mob types (Zombie, Skeleton, Wither Skeleton, Warden, etc.)
• Dedicated boss mobs per chest tier

✔ Fully customizable

✔ Scales with your server difficulty

✔ Perfect for survival & RPG servers

 Smart Region Protection Support (WorldGuard & Lands)

GuardiansChest is fully compatible with popular protection plugins:

✔ Supports WorldGuard regions

✔ Supports Lands claimed areas

 Smart Spawn Logic

• Chests will NOT spawn inside protected regions or claimed lands
• Ensures events only occur in valid, unprotected areas
• Prevents interference with player builds and bases

 Why This Matters

• Protects player creations from unwanted event spawns
• Keeps gameplay fair and non-intrusive
• Eliminates griefing concerns
• Maintains server balance and structure

Your players’ builds stay safe — while events remain exciting and competitive.

 Visual & Immersive Effects

Make events impossible to ignore:

• Particle effects & glowing chests
• Lightning strikes for Legendary events
• Ambient and trigger-based sounds

 Proximity Sound System

• Sound intensifies as players approach
• Fully configurable range & timing

Players feel the event before they even see it.

 Server-Wide Announcements

Keep everyone engaged:

• Global spawn announcements
• Title messages on event start
• Countdown warnings (build anticipation)
• 
• Achievement broadcasts

Your server will react instantly every time a chest appears.

This can be turned off/on in config.
