The arenas of Loka first began as a way to allow Lokans to settle conflicts in a a fair environment. Though it still retains this value, arenas have evolved far beyond simple conflicts. Players of Loka may enter a public queue to match up randomly to another person in the queue. There are currently 6 arenas that have been built by various players of the server and any player is able to suggest an arena that they have made. There are also various modes of duels you can challenge people in.

For those not interested in fighting, but still wish to spectate, there is a way you may do so. Using /pvp you can click on the compass, the "Watch Duels" button, and then click on a player head to spectate the duel. You are not allowed to speak in chat in the duel and you may not interfere in any way.

== Equipment ==
Equipment is standard for every mode. Each player will receive a Protection IV set of gear, a Sharpness V diamond sword, a Power V bow with 24 arrows, 3 sets of buffs, 20 steak, and an inventory of health potions.

However, equipment for barebones differs from the standard kit of potion PvP, instead of what you get above, you get a diamond set and sword with enchants, but no food and there is no 33% damage buff.

== Game Modes ==
The first game mode is unrated potion PvP, there are multiple ways of getting into one of these, you may use /duel, queue using /pvp and hitting the diamond sword, or by being in a passive queue you may turn on and off in /settings.

The second game mode is ranked potion PvP, to queue for this you can use /pvp and click on the potion. You will be paired with another person in the queue. There are currently 8 divisions that will be covered in this wiki page.
[[File:Screenshot 47.png|thumb]]
The third game mode is ranked barebones, to queue for this you can use /pvp and click on the stone sword. It has the same ranked system as potion PvP, with the eight divisions.

== Ranked Divisions ==
Instead of the old system of an ELO number, there are now ranked divisions. In order to be placed into one of the eight ranked divisions, a player must complete 10 placement matches to determine their appropriate rank.
