Ultimate Minecraft Hoplite Guide – Novathon

If you’re active in the Minecraft Community or you’re active on this channel you’ve probably heard of Minecraft hoplight Minecraft hoplight is a new and upcoming server that demonstrates a bunch of Battle Royale games that you and your friends can play but the server can be a little complicated and confusing especially

When you first join so this tutorial series will teach you how to play hoplight the specifics of it and also everything about it now to join Minecraft hoplight is very simple open up your launcher click multiplayer and type in the IP address hopl light.gg it’s as simple as that when you first

Log in you’ll be greeted with a screen where your texture pack will load for the server and that’s right this server has its own custom texture pack once the texture pack is loaded you’ll end up in the main lobby of the game where you’ll be greeted with a bunch of other players

And some different kind of stats and items you can use to get situated in hoplight for season 2 of Minecraft hot plight the lobby is decorated with Christmas and holiday decorations to make you feel at home and in the festive mood right before you go and launch

Yourself into battle and attack up to 90 different players when you turn around in the lobby you’ll be greeted by this starter board where you can see star levels for your profile and you’re greeted with a little message introducing you to hoplight to the left of the lobby when you first spawn in

You’ll see your statistics which you can see my 5 hours gets me not that many kills you can also see the levels of different players on the server the wins that solo players have gotten and alongside their kills where you can see I’m 42,800 ranked it’s pretty impressive

When you first walk forward and on the small little Al Cove to the right you’re M with an NPC that gives you quests hello there each Quest has three daily quests that you can select from such as surviving longer than 80% of players or killing three players meanwhile weekly

Quests are designed to spend more time on and you get more rewards as a result some of these quests can include winning a game or entering 40 different biomes which might take you some time there’s also the auto accept Quest features but that’s only allowed for VIP members in

Which case your quests will automatically be received rather than youing to manually click them in the left Al Co where you spawn you’ll find two NPCs the coin shop and the token shop the first NPC the coin shop allows you to spend Co coins to upgrade the

Classes or perks that you can select in the game hoplight has a number of different classes such as the melee Warrior or the ranged Archer and you can use coins that you gain during matches and from winning to upgrade these different class types for instance the warrior type allows you to have an

Upgraded sword at the start of the game while the Archer subass will allow you an upgraded and better bow as you continue to play each class has its own advantages and weapons and tools that you get access to at the start of each game so choose whichever one you prefer

And adapt your play style to what you like similarly the perks tab allows you to pick from a number of different perks that you have at the game these include additional starter Health saturation to prevent you from needing to have food player kills giving you more gold or

Experience boosts allowing you to get additional experience from all sources throughout the game and much like classes you can use your coins to upgrade these perks to make them stronger through the game the token shop NPC is where you’ll spend the points you receive from each season’s battle pass

The token shop has four different tracks one free track that every player has access to and three of the VIP tier tracks which you have to pay VIP tier rank four in order to unlock you use the Battle Points you receive from games and quests in the battle pass to be able to

Purchase each one of these Cosmetics which with the final golden cosmetic only being unlockable one to unlock the previous five cosmetics in that rank the second item in your toolbar the shop item allows you to quickly open up the shop letting you see both the coin shop

That we talked about previously and the token shop that was just covered relative to the battle pass and speaking of the shop item lets you actually view the Battle pass itself each season of hot PL has its own unique battle pass and with each tier you get more and more

Points to spend in the token shop to buy those cosmetic playing games allows you to earn more battle pass experience to make to click on these bags and get more tokens to spend in the token shop the quest tab of the shop is the exact same NPC that we viewed earlier allowing you

To quickly select different quests that you receive that you can achieve in during games the levels tab lets you play games to unlock experience just like the previous battle pass tab but this one allows you to unlock gems and coins coins which you can use in the

Coin shop and gems which you can use for other features as we’ll see in just a minute each level of the experience tab will let you unlock more and more coins and gems new to hoplight season 2 and for the holiday season is an NPC allowing you to get coins experience and

Tokens that you can spend in the shop VIP members get their own monthly and weekly gifts as well and if you connect with the different hoplight socials you get additional gems that you can spend on in server directly across from him and to the right is the shiny Cosmetics

NPC where if you have the relative mythical shiny upgrade tool you can upgrade each one of the Cosmetics you’ve unlocked to their shiny mythical variant almost like a Pokemon and also new for the holiday season here in hoplight is the brand new mystery crate when you

Right click on the mystery crate you get to see how many of the crates you actually own as you can see I don’t own any of them so I can’t actually un unlock anything but when you unlock a mystery crate that you actually have you have the chance of getting one of many

Different holiday themed Cosmetics from a snowman hat that you can wear on your head to pretending to be Santa himself or maybe you decide you want to ride in the sock nothing wrong with that here is where you can also find those mythical upgrade tools that we saw previously

Called Tear boosts these tiar boosts will allow your Cosmetics to be upgraded to their shiny variant also at this NPC is where you’ll spend your gems that you can get from previous different sources such as leveling up or connecting with the hoplight social media tabs spending

Your gems here will get you one mystery crate so if you decide to use it spend it wisely don’t even know why I’m jumping on this directly ahead of where you first spawn in are the two NPCs that will allow you to play the game first the solo Royale NPC and second the

Civilization Royale NPC solo Royale is exactly what it sounds like like you were placed on your own team by yourself and you have no other teammates there’s roughly 90 other players in a game of solo Royale in which every single player is fighting against each other to claim

Victory as the ultimate winner of the entire battle important to note is that in the solo Royale game mode you don’t actually regenerate any health naturally the only way you can actually regenerate health is through golden apples or other healing devices duels allow you to duel

Other players in intense batt B Les and hone your PVP skills you have the ability to unlock different weapon kits and can tailor those kits to your fighting style but let’s say you don’t want to fight alone and you’d rather fight in a team that’s where the civilization Royale game mode comes into

Play 90 players are split up across 10 civilizations into teams each team elects their own King to lead their civilization and your goal is to join with your teammates and win together to be claimed as the crowning winning team of the whole tournament the quick play

Option in the bottom of the UI allows you to access these screens quickly rather than having to go to the prerequisite NPCs in the lobby just in case you get lost or don’t feel like making the walk the middle item allows you to see the different Cosmetics you

Own and allows you to equip them here I have no pet so I have no Lobby Cosmetics but if I go into the Royals Tab and the duels tabs you can see the Cosmetics that you own the Cosmetics range from hats gliders that are propelling you down when the game

Mode starts kill effects that appear when you kill an enemy player here I have bedazzle pretty sparkles and finally you can unlock victory dances which will play if your team manages to win at the end of each Royale similarly the duels tab allows you to equip Cosmetics with the added

Difference of there being openers and the victory dances hats and kill effects are the same the second to last item allows you to view these socials in Minecraft hoplight here you can access your friends list your party list and you can also gift ranks to anyone or any

Of your friends that you feel like accessing the friends tab allows you to see the whole one friend I have and looking at both the friend requests and blocked players icon which will be coming shortly will allow you to see those tabs as well the party tab allows

You to create a party of up to three if you’re playing civilization as well as inviting players blocking them from joining your party and leaving a party if you’re actually in it but I have no friends so I can’t test that out parties are across Network and allow players to

Play with their friends across various modes so there isn’t any issue when it comes to crossplay Ability the final item in your hot bar is your profile where you get to see the Avatar of your current Minecraft skin your name your rank which is default for mine as well as your

Socials which hey while you’re looking at mine right now consider subscribing and liking below I use a lot of Minecraft hoplight and I play a lot of it so if you’re interested in more tutorials or want to see previous hoplight videos I’ve done in the past consider subscribing and checking them

Out the settings tab allows you to upgrade and change different settings throughout your hotl experience these can include receiving a friend requests from anyone in the server who can private message you from anyone to friends to no one and also who can send you party invites again from anyone

Friends or no one the second tab being the game settings allows you to change whether you’d like to see other Spectators whether you would like night vision to be toggled on or off which I can’t imagine why you want it off as well as also deciding whether or not you

Want to receive dual requests from other players amongst other settings that you can tweak from the game the lobby settings tab allows you to change the different Lobby settings such as whether you want a confirmation when leaving the lobby or if you decide you want to change the time of day that plays

Specifically for you in the lobby in the background as you can see your options are Morning Noon Sunset and night so picked your favorite time of the day and see how much you like it the ability to fly in lobbies and announce when you join as well as Auto accepting quests as

Discussed previously are locked behind the VIP ranks look at that propeller hat lastly if you a little bored as you’re waiting for a queue of Minecraft hoplight you can head over to the parkour section where you press in the jump pad and it starts to time your progress through the parkour course the

Buttons in the middle allow you to either spawn at the latest checkpoint restart the entire parkour course all together or leave it if you feel like you don’t want to play it anymore as you can see here I’m not exactly the brightest when it comes to parkour and

Can’t really figure out my way forward but apparently the Slime doesn’t want to work out for me so I decide to end the parkour course and don’t embarrass myself publicly any more than I have to or if you decide you’ve had enough of Parkour instead of using the buttons you

Can go ahead and dump yourself in the bottom of a lake it won’t work the timer will still go but you can at least pretend like no one can see you so now we’ve covered the basics how to join the Minecraft hoplight server how to navigate your way around the lobby and

How to use the UI to join hotl games explore the shops and gain quests but you’re probably sitting there and wondering to yourself how do I actually play hotl that will be answered and covered in the next part where we’ll go over how to play game of hoplight from

The resource Gathering phase to the juicy stuff such as combat and team fighting
