How will the different servers affect PvP combat?
Normal Ruleset Servers: PvP on the “Normal” servers will be strictly consentual. Players will be able to participate in PvP by either manually activating their PvP switch (by typing /pvp), attacking an enemy that is currently PvP active, entering a PvP Battle Ground instance or entering an opposing factions home city. Alliance Vs. Horde Ruleset Servers: PvP on the AvH servers occurs much more frequently than on the normal servers. Zones on the AvH servers are labeled either Alliance / Horde Territority or Contested Territority. By default the opposing faction becomes attackable once they enter the other side’s “Territority” while any players in their home territority are not attackable by the enemy unless their PvP switch is active.
