[edit] Definition
PvP is an abbreviation for Pirate vs. Pirate or Player vs. Player events in Pirates of the Caribbean Online.
During normal play, all pirates are allies; in keeping with the Pirate's Code. The Royal Navy, EITC, Jolly Roger's skeleton army and the cursed creatures that stalk the islands are their enemies.
In PvP events, pirates square off against each other in duels, team / crew and mayhem (every man for himself) brawls, and ship vs. ship (Ship PvP) combat.
[edit] PvP Events
[edit] On Land
By carrying a coin from the Aztec treasure of Cortez, Pirates can engage in one-on-one, team or mass melee combat without fear of death or breaking the Code.
Pirates can challenge any pirate at any time. Simply by clicking on them, and selecting the Crew Battle option or by clicking on the name of pirate in your Friend, Crew or Guild list that is currently online.
[edit] Team Battle
A group of pirates can take to the battlefield in two, evenly divided teams. First, the pirates crew up - then selects Team Battle from the Lookout menu.
Once a server is found, the two groups arrive on opposite sides of the battlefield. Each time a pirate is killed, the team responsible earns 1 point. The event is also timed.
[edit] Crew Battle
Unlike team battles where one crew is divided into two groups, one entire crew faces off against another.
[edit] Mayhem
This event is like pirate battle royal, with each scallywag for his or herself. Within the time limit, each pirate tries to take down as many opponents as possible and stay alive.
Just like Team Battle, the pirates crew up first - then select Mayhem.
Mayhem scores 1 point for each kill. The pirate who finishes off another gets the kill, no matter which other pirates did the most harm.
[edit] Lookout
If the pirate has no immediate challengers or friends to take on and is itching for a fight, they can click on the Lookout Menu option (Spyglass Icon). From that menu, they can select from several Pirate vs. Pirate options - including: PVP Mayhem or Team Battle.
Once you've chosen your type of fight, the pirate will be taken to an arena to fight once enough pirates are gathered.
