Type: Ranked Raiding • PVP • No Wipe • 12-Map Cluster (PS4/PS5)

Playstyle: Ranked Raids, Competitive PvP with fair game play, Enforced raiding rules.

The Fractured Ark is a long-term, no-wipe PvP cluster built around fair competition. Progress matters here: tribes rise through clearly defined Ranks, Raiding has rules, open-world PvP stays exciting without letting higher tier tribes from farming lower tier tribe bases.

All 12 Maps are linked in one cluster so you can travel, trade, and fight across the ARK.

• Tiers: Bob (new/small tribes) → Beta (mid-tier) → Alpha (top-tier) → Cluster Alpha (server-wide champion).
• Who can raid whom:
  • Bob vs Bob
  • Beta vs Beta
  • Alpha vs Alpha or Cluster Alpha
  • Cluster Alpha vs Alpha (requires 12-hour raid notice before engagement)
• Open-world PvP: Free-for-all across all maps. Rank limits apply only to base raiding.
• Retaliation window: If a lower rank attacks a higher rank, the higher rank has 72 hours to retaliate.
• Promotion Rules:
  • If a lower rank wipes a higher-rank tribe, the lower rank is promoted to the next tier (proof required see below).
  • Beta promotion requirement: You can apply for Beta once you have at least one Skeleton Tower for base defense.
  • Alpha requirement: To qualify as Alpha, your tribe must have three Skeleton Towers at one cave and at least one tower at another cave on a different map.
  • Bob promotion: Bobs may rank up to Beta by wiping a Beta or meeting the tower requirement.
  • Beta's promotion: Beta's may rank up to Alpha by wiping an Alpha, following the standard promotion proof process.
• Cluster Alpha Title (Endgame Tier):
  • To become the Cluster Alpha, there must be At least 5 Alphas tribes, your tribe must wipe at least one base from each current Alpha tribe across the cluster.
  • If the Cluster Alpha title has already been claimed, you must defeat the current Cluster Alpha tribe to take the title.
  • If a Cluster Alpha is wiped but chooses to continue, all tribe members will receive a recovery pack suited for Alpha status (includes non-mutated tames and rebuild supplies).
• Cluster Alpha Rules & Engagement Protocol:
  • There can be only one Cluster Alpha across the entire cluster — the ultimate dominant tribe.
  • Cluster Alphas may raid other Alphas only once per week per tribe.
  • If a Cluster Alpha plans to raid another Alpha, they must post the raid notice in the announcements channel on The Fractured Ark Discord at least 12 hours in advance.
  • Cluster Alphas cannot perform retaliation raids right away, even if recently attacked or challenged (“pull up”). They must still post a raid notice at least 12 hours before the raid begins.
  • Failure to announce will result in administrative action:
    • The offending tribe will forfeit the Cluster Alpha title.
    • All Alpha Cluster bases owned by that tribe will be transferred to the defending Alpha tribe via admin-enforced changeover.
• Proof for Builds, Wipes & Claims (SUBMIT VIA THE FRACTURED ARK DISCORD SUPPORT TICKETS)
  1. For Base Builds & Tower Requirements:
     • Screenshot(s) clearly showing your Base and Skeleton Tower(s).
     • Each tower must show the tribe name for verification.
     • Tribe name and map location must be shared with Admin.
     • Optional: a short video clip or fly-around (if preferred) for faster verification.
  2. For Raids & Wipes:
     • Screenshot of the target base before the raid, with the enemy tribe name visible.
     • Screenshot of you inside the base after breach.
     • Tribe logs showing damage dealt and structures destroyed.

Admins actively review all submissions and enforce outcomes to ensure fair play and consistent standards across the cluster.

PS4/PS5-friendly cave adjustments: entrances are tightened or set to single-exit paths using Loadout Mannequins to control access and improve fight balance.

Note: Admins reserve the right to add, modify, or remove Loadout Mannequins on any map at any time to maintain balance or prevent exploitation.
