    Overall good suggestions, gonna react to every point in specific to give my point of view and in some cases I will explain something.

    Adding the feature to view chests in claimed factions -> This would require a plugin since opening chests in claimed territorium is not going to happen (Glitchers and too easy raiding.)
    I don't think this is necesarry by the way, since kit cannon got changed recently and now includes creeper eggs.

    Faction wars/duels.
    This will only be added if it is fully automatical or only needs a small input of global-admins or higher.
    Reasons:
    1) It could be considered an event and events are the responsibility of the admins so if something goes wrong everyone blames the staff (In the past events have turned out inefficient and even harmful in a certain extend to all/part of the players.)
    2) If you make a normal duel area which is open 24/7 admins will be spammed with requests to do 1v1 or teamfights which take a lot of time and if something goes wrong everyone blames the admin.

    Factions commands.
    Don't know if the faction plugin we currently use supports this (probably Tibo needs to make an add-on which hooks into this plugin (sorry for my extremly noobish coding knowledge.))
    @Tibo442

    Fixing the PvP areas.
    After a reset the spawn and warzone changes so this will be taking into consideration.

    Costum achievements.
    This would also require a self-written plugin or a tweak to the plugin which is currently used in KitPvP.
    I'm not sure if this would be worth putting in but it would be a nice add-on and if it's quite simple and unharmful (So no big rewards but maybe just something like a 'banner' or whatever (like runescape capes))
    @Tibo442

    Loot chest.
    The problem here is that it should be very balanced and tested before we do this, it needs to bring more PvP but it should give everyone a good chance to get it (Not just the top #3 faction familys getting it every time it spawns.)

    Auction house.
    If a good plugin is available this will be added, the old auction house had some bugs and that's why it was removed shortly after being introduced to the factions server.

    Anvils.
    Good suggestion, with a plugin/tweak this should be possible and otherwise we will just make a gigantic anvil room.

    Name tags.
    If I'm remembering correctly this has been introduced against the vanish rushers with strength.
    Will be discussed and considered.

    PvP drop timer.
    In my eyes this is a big no, we already made filters to make it harder to loot (PvPers with a good filter will allmost instantly pick up the loot) and looting is part of the game, just like betraying in my eyes.

    Head drops.
    Will be considered, we had this in the past not sure why it was disabled.
    If it will be enabled I'm not sure about making it a way to make money, most likely people will just buy heads to collect them or just to get their own head back.

    The ability to turn xp into xp bottles.
    I don't see why we should add this since donators already have the no-xp lose upon death perk.


    I will discuss all these suggestions with @aXed and brainstorm about it.
    I can't guarantee anything but some suggestions are really nice.
    Note, do please realise that since factions is going quite good now we don't want to change too much, indeed fun changes and tweaks should be made but we don't want to destroy what we have now by making too big changes.
    (A small change can have a great impact on the gameplay and some of the things suggested here have been tested before and proven to not function properly/harm the game experience of the community.)

    Thanks for the good suggestions :)

    Now the problem with "good" is right now, 3-4 months into reset, its boring. The top faction can just ride the entire server, sitting there afking, doing whatever they want, at that point the top factions have basically won the game, won't get raided you don't have much competition.
