==PvP and How It Works== At level 30, you get your name changed from blue to white. This is a little red flag for other players to start smacking you around. Note the green shield on your mini-map. You can change from '''safe mode''' (the shield, which means you have to hold down "Control" or "Command" to attack players directly) OR you can switch to '''free mode''' (the red swords, which means you attack directly.) Make a mental note that you have to actually CLICK on your skills to use them in PvP. Pressing buttons won't do anything, and you will be a sitting duck, especially if you are a mage class. Make another note that if you're in free mode, and you're working with classes that tank, you might accidentally target them, causing your party to keel over immediately. THEREFORE, when you're in squads, make sure safe mode is on. When you attack a player, your name turns PINK. This gives a little beacon that you're aggressive, and most other people will take advantage of that. If you just hit someone, and don't kill them (Like NPCs who can't die) you have a lesser chance of loosing items. When you KILL a player, your name becomes red. Anybody who is a seasoned fighter on a PvP server will tell you (in a kind of jerk way) "Red name is fair game." Now, DECENT human beings will let you quest if you're red named, but this is a PvP server, so humanity is difficult to find. Most players will immediately try and take you down if they see you're red named. The best thing to do is hide in a remote location near a safe zone, and kill monsters AT OR ABOVE your level. This will reduce the (THREE HOUR LONG) duration of your infamy. When you kill a LOT OF PLAYERS, your name becomes dark red. This pretty much signals that you are one really tough cookie, and people shouldn't mess with you. Of course, this also turn you into a HUGE pile of money for anybody who kills you. Show off your pretty red name, just try not to show it off when there's people bigger than you around!
