anyone not wanting to be on a pvp server needs to read the PVP FAQ thread.

Q: So it's not a chaotic free for all where I have to be paranoid about every non guildy wanting to piledrive my face in 5 secs after I attack a mob?
A: No.
Q: Is that it?
A: By controlling an area with the political system, Vanarchs be able to turn PKing in certain zones off.
Q: My only pvp mmo games I've played have been WoW/Aion, whats the difference between the PVP servers here?
A: WoW/Aion had a multi faction system with what were actually designated as "Free For All" servers with no downside to griefing or unprovoked attacks. Tera's PVP server would be considered a "Normal PVP" server, that PVP is simply allowed as opposed to a strict PVE server. No plans for a FFA server are in the works.
I'd almost be willing to argue we WILL be on a pvp server after this announcement.
