PvP Rules on Zenaria
The main rule: killing a player outside events and duels makes you an outlaw. For details on the status and how to remove it, see server rules.
AoE skills hit only those you are fighting. Only dangerous targets are your opponent in a duel, players in Chaos Castle, in guild wars and siege, Gens enemies in Vulcanus, whoever attacked you first, and outlaws. Your party, guild, and spot neighbors are not hit by AoE skills.
Blood Castle and Devil Square are PvE events for leveling, they are not PvP. All who enter the arena participate in PvP events, except duels and guild wars, which are by invitation.
For the full list of PvP events and timings, see the events page.
Duprian and Vanert Gens
You can join a Gens from level 50 at an NPC in Lorencia or Noria. Choose your side: Duprian or Vanert.
The Gens war takes place on the Vulcanus map. There, members of different Gens fight each other. The Gens window opens with the F8 key.
To enter Vulcanus, you need level 150 and 80,000 Zen for the move. So you can only fight there from level 150, although you can join a Gens earlier.
In AoE skills, Gens enemies in Vulcanus are considered valid targets, so fighting there carries no risk of becoming an outlaw.
Outlaws and Penalties
If you kill a player outside an event or duel, you become an outlaw (PK). On death, an outlaw loses 5% of Zen from inventory and more EXP, the vault is not touched.
You can remove the status with the /pkclear command. It costs 10M Zen per kill.
If you don't want to accidentally become an outlaw, make sure you are in a duel, on an arena, or in a guild war. In these modes, kills do not lead to PK.
