Overview
- Player versus Player ( PvP) is a videogaming term used to describe a Player's interaction with other Players or PCs (Player operated characters) in a videogame.
- Player versus Player gameplay most often consists of competitive actions between players, including battles, races, or point collection. The term is used most widely in Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games.
World PvP
- Main article: World PvP
- Provided the player is on a PvP Server, the player can fight with players of the opposite faction at any time within the open cities of Metropolis and Gotham City. These actions do not provide any actual reward in the form of Influence or Marks of Valor (that replaced Marks of Tactics, Marks of Conquest, and Marks of Victory (old)).
- While this ability is only available in PvP Servers, both PvP and PvE Servers possess events such as The Ring War in Metropolis and the Diamond Heist in Gotham, where players can battle each other in the open cities regardless of the server type. Participating in these events will reward the player with Influence or Marks of Valor which can be traded in to specific Vendors for specialized PvP weapons and armour sets.
