So PVP servers are two teams going at it with no faction change?
and KOS lets player attack/Gank you right?

also what are the "Teams" as such anyway?

The team server is going away. But, basically, in the team server you had two sides: anytime you saw one of the opposing side, you could attack them.

FFA, or "free for all" is an open environment, wherein anyone could attack anyone else.

In FFA, if you kill someone, you get 10% of their coin, and a touch of infamy.

Correction on a statement you have had: KOS is a result of what race you pick. Whichever race you pick, somewhere on Telon, they don't like you. In those areas, you are "Kill On Sight."

Helping the locals who don't like you, by beating up on their villians (or making things for their outposts, etc), will earn faction so that they aren't so likely to call for the guards in the future.

The Kill on Sight thing is an NPC vs you thing not PVP.

So does KOS alow Player to kill each other?

No, it has to do with the reaction of the NPCs to you (based on how good terms you are with their factions). For instance, a dark elf would find the high elf city very unfriendly until he or she had spent a lot of time killing the local enemies.

So then how do player fight each other?

I think I misread your post a bit back. The KoS stuff we were talking about is for PvE play.

Someone else will need to help me clarify this; however, from what I have read, there are currently:

• PvE servers where there is no non-consensual player vs player fighting (this is where my experience lies).
• Team based PvP servers (based on character race with a good/civilized vs evil/tribal theme--more or less).
• Free for all PvP servers where, within limits, anyone can attack anyone else.

With the server merges, the team based PvP is going away and the remaining PvP server(s?) will be FFA.

So on the PvE servers in Vanguard, unlike WoW, you don't get much of any player fighting player (other than duels). PvP is not the focus of the game design, and as was mentioned by someone else, it isn't the best designed subsystem in the game.

right, well is there a list anywere of Race KOS.
And that actualy answered My PVP question sept are there any ways you can't attack another player on PVP, like a level range of players you can attack, or is it just open Ganking.

[Aredhel]

There's a 5-level cap, I think it is, for that. It's not a free for all when it comes to "anything that moves is fair game."

If I've misread the news on this (and you can find plenty of it around!), I know someone will correct me!

[Bao]

Well is there anywere i can find a KOS listing or do should we start making one?
Thanks, Ysharros, Aredhel, Swordmage and Myrdinn. if i ever see you ingame i'll repay you for your help
