Howdy! Is it true that the Age of Conan has a real PVP? Is it more real than any other game? If it is true then I definitely want to be a part of this game. Usually I am more of a player versus environment than player versus player, but if PvP is so real than I am tempted to try and play.

I dont know how much player versus player in the Age of Conan differs then player versus player game in any other online game, but if people say so, than it must be true. I am player versus environment myself and I think that player versus player mode is all the same in every game. I really think that player versus player depends more on other players than on designers skill, but in player versus environment mode that is not true. What can I say, I like to play against machines rather than real people.

So that is the reason why I cant really tell if PvP is that good.

Are you skilled mage or a hardboiled warrior in search for most suitable guild to join?
Or if you're already guild member ready to share some real PvP experience…

well first off,what i do know from the videos I've seen and the stuff i read:

1.You will have to AIM in combat,it won't be automatic,so it brings skill to a "new" level.

2.

a)The profs won't be balanced for 1vs1 since the main focus is team pvp(so expect them to go for mass pvp balancing first,then 1vs1)

b)However,there are no nemesis classes,for example,a rogue might bring a mage down fast,but it won't be their nemesis prof,a warrior might bring down the mage,but again it won't be their nemesis prof.

In short,every class has a fighting chance vs another class(some higher,some lower obviously),at least thats what i concluded from the videos/things i read.

3.Combo rose is said to be "easy to learn,yet difficult to master" by the Devs,it has been "simplified" so that you get 3 corners instead of 5 till level 20,then as you progress you unlock the other 2 for a total of 5.

The mage classes use "spellweaving"(you combine spells,imagine a fireball with an earth based root spell,/drool) instead of classic combos.

Hope that helps a bit.

While it doesnt have the freedom that Shadowbane had as far as pvp it is defintely a step in the right direction.

Its not faction based,so you can basically attack anyone anywhere(apart from towns obviously) on the FFA pvp server,while the normal servers only have border kingdoms(places where you can attack anyone anywhere).

Arenas/CTF/duels/2vs2/3vs3 and all the other crap will be present in game ;>
