PvP

In ArcheAge there are many ways and places to PvP but can be summed up by two(2) basic categories.

=Inner Faction PvP=

Dueling
Players of the same faction may participate in one versus one battles known as dueling. This is a safe form of PvP as players can not kill each other while dueling.

To request a duel select a player of the same faction, right click their character portrait and select "duel."

Murder
It is possible for members of the same faction to attack and kill each other in areas of conflict/war. Murdering members of your own faction unprovoked will result in the gain of Criminal Points. Players dying with over 50 points will be sent to Prison.

To activate/deactivate this mode, press Ctrl+F.

After activating there is a small delay before it can be turned off.

=Cross Faction PvP= It is possible for members of opposing factions to attack and kill each other in any zone that is not currently in a "Truce" state.

Starting zones(under level 30) prevent invasive players from initiating conflict, but if attacked they may retaliate.
