Duels
While player versus player gameplay is perfectly viable and rewarding, there is a
means of friendlier competition that isn’t as intense as faction versus faction violence.
If you wish to test your skill against other players, you can challenge them to a duel.
ISSUING A CHALLENGE
A duel challenge can be issued on a PvP or non-PvP realm. To challenge a player
to a duel, select the player and then right-click on the player’s portrait. Select the
Duel option. The other player can then either accept or decline the challenge.
When a challenge is first issued, a duel flag drops down between the two players,
signaling to other players that a duel is about to commence. If the other player
declines the duel, the duel flag disappears. If the other player accepts, then the duel
is on, and the flag continues to wave until a winner emerges.
As soon as the other player consents to the duel, you and the other player can
begin attacking each other, using the same abilities, spells, and tactics you employ
against the monsters you normally fight against.
Note
When one player is reduced to zero (one?) health, the duel is over,
and the
winner is the surviving player. You also win the duel if the other player
strays too far from the duel flag, thus forfeiting the match.
CONCLUDING A DUEL
You do not have to worry about losing experience, dying, or being looted if you
lose a duel. However, you also don’t gain experience or treasure for defeating
another player in a duel. Instead, a duel is just a friendly test of combat skill. You
can duel players within your faction or in the opposite faction.
