Life on a PvP server

[Aenor]

PvP is hard. You will be trying to level up and as soon as you are low health from a fight, here comes a ganker to try and kill shot you. Game knowledge becomes essential because you can't hunt in the obvious places solo. You have to have a crew, form a crew, or know where to level in remote, obscure places. Every level you ding is a chore, and sometimes you will have to log out for a while and play an alt until the coast is clear and you can go back to your main.

But the sense of accomplishment from building your character in a hostile environment, where you not only have to overcome the server-controlled obstacles but also intelligent human players, is like nothing you will ever achieve or experience on a blue server.
