Event:UHC

Note: This page explains the basic concept of UHCs and lists scenarios and rules utilized by Prism Party. For more information on a specific UHC event, please see all UHCs.

UHC, or Ultra Hardcore, is a Minecraft survival PvP gamemode in which players or teams of players compete to be the last one standing. The defining characteristic of UHC gameplay is that respawning and natural health regeneration is disabled: even with full hunger, players will not regenerate lost health, and dead players are entered into spectator mode. This forces players to depend on non-natural sources of healing, such as Golden Apples or potions, to recover lost health. This single change effectively makes even mundane mob encounters and environmental obstacles a significant risk, as players must be cautious not to lose health unnecessarily.

While UHCs can be heavily modified and remixed, it is common for UHCs to feature a slowly shrinking border to force players together before culminating in a final death-match at the end of the game's timer.

Rules

Note: Specific events may have different rules! This section only lists general, or commonly used, rules in Prism UHCs. For rules specific to a particular UHC event, please review the page for that event instead.

1. Do not cross-team.
2. Do not purposefully harm your teammate using traps.
3. Do not abuse spectator mode to grant your living teammate an advantage.
4. Do not use client mods, exploits, or cheats. Some mods normally allowed on Survival (such as minimaps) may not be allowed in UHC.
5. Do not disconnect from the game once it has started.
6. Be a good sport and act in grace, even during a defeat.
7. Abide by regular Prism Party rules.
