Ok first thing
1:
Race selection is very important in pvp. the bigger or more you stand out in the crowd the more you will be targetd in group pvp. Ie: orcs dwarfs and mahrim stand out in a group of humans or alfar like a bannana in a apple basket. Also the bigger races have bigger hit box. Best race in game is alfar starting stats arent the best but u can easily raise your st and vit to be able to melee like the stronger races. Multi guild race is possible so if you have your heart set on dwarves have at em. They arent little they are just as tall as humans and alfar but 4x fatter.

2: starting location does not matter much its about a 10-15min run to the capital city in all noob starting locs. Each race has 3 starting cities.

3: Bank your loot dont farm for 3hrs and expect to make it back to town, Bank your loot every 30mins to a hour when your first starting out. Get your noob weapon changed asap. no since in wasting time leveling a weapon skill your not going to use. 20gold buys replacment noob weapon slot.

4: Use the enviroment i have been pked once in 3weeks. If you rest with your back to trees etc. its hard for people to sneak up on u and catch you off guard. Be smart some pks are nifty and theres going to be a ton of them around release.

5: hunt in pairs! or even groups. The alignment system in this game is unforgiving exploiters will jump in front of u when killing goblins so u hit them and once your flag he and his buddies will be able to attack you with out penalty. Have your friends body block when this happens if they hit your friend they will turn grey also and then the tables will turn. Most blue pk's will leave you alone if you do this because alot of the times these guys are not naked and dont wanna turn grey trying to kill you.
