Revision as of 21:44, 8 November 2020

There are several maps that can be played on for DvZ. Every map is very different but all strive for the same kind of “not too big” style that was common before the most recent "loadouts" version of DvZ. Every map has all the resources necessary to operate in some form or another and have at least one shrine, but most maps have at least two. Each of these sections will just be a little story write-up.

Maps are divided into two categories: Primary and Other. Primary maps are those which are played more often, whether it be automatically queued or regularly played. Other maps are those which are irregular in their game style, are played much less often, and are typically relegated to the weekend event map vote.
