I'm going to be giving  AoC a try later on when I get home from work. I'm trying to gather some iformation about the PvP servers. I found a little on the AoC website..

What are the restrictions on the PvP server? Can't be attacked in certain areas..etc..

Is there a point to PvPing, besides the acomplishment that you killed another player. I'm thinking like Realm Points in DAoC. Do you get rewards the more kills that you have?

Can players easily run away if they are going to lose the fight? I hate this about WAR, on the ORvR servers, it seems there is never a Chapter Camp far away and someone gets low on health and just sprints away.

Any other useful information regarding the PvP servers would be very much apprecaited.

on a pvp server you cant be attacked in towns or certain quest areas. but as you progress in the game more areas become pvp areas. just the main cities are not pvp, but have some pvp districts inside them.

you get pvp xp, there are 5 pvp levels. each lvl has gear you can get, also the higher pvp lvl you are the better the gear gets.

and you get stats for lvling in pvp to make you stronger. and yeah people run like bitches in pvp most the time. but usually there are ways to stopping them. when they run you can snare, root, or shoot them in the back. people try to swim away since you cant fight in water, but a good ranged weapon solves that.

and people like to zone hop if they are about to die, nothing to do but chase them, or if you have a group. have a few chase and a few stay behind so when he hops back over you can finish him

and for choosing your server, if you like to rp go to cimmeria, its great for rp/pvp

and if you just want to pvp go to tyranny. both these servers have a high population

Thanks man!
