Kyronix, can you please take a crack at answering these questions I posted on Tuesday? Thanks.
Kyronix, thank you for answering those additional questions. I'm still concerned about alliances, however, and what is going to happen to guilds who belong to alliances if more than one guild in the alliance joins this system. It sounds like there is the very real potential that you will could end up being orange to each other all the time. Is that correct?
If you are in VvV you will highlight (may not necessarily be orange, we used that for the sake of testing) to everyone so that it is clear you are in VvV.
And if one guild in the alliance joins VvV and the others don't, are there implications while in Fel for the non-participating guilds?
If you attack someone who is in VvV or you beneficial act someone in VvV, you become freely aggressable by anyone in VvV.
Also, could you please clarify what will happen if a character who is in a guild that isn't enrolled in VvV and whose guild isn't allied with any VvV-participating guilds, or is a character that belongs to no guild at all, is attacked in Felucca by a VvV participant? If the non-VvV character which is attacked does not fight back, who are they flagged to in this situation and for how long (e.g., if attacker leaves without killing, or if attacker kills the non-VvV character)? If the attacked non-VvV participant who offers no defense is killed by a VvV participant, will the non-VvV participant in this situation have 5 minutes of skill loss?
If you are in VvV and you are killed by a player you get stat loss. If you aren't in VvV and you attack/beneficial act someone in VvV you get stat loss when you die from a player.
Now consider the situation where a non-VvV character is attacked by a character that is in a VvV guild and the non-VvV character decides to defend himself directly. Who are they flagged to in this situation and for how long (e.g., attacker leaves without killing the non-VvV character, or attacker kills the non-VvV character)? What are the rules in this situation if non-VvV character that is attacked uses a pet to defend himself? Who are they flagged to and for how long? Will the non-VvV character that defended itself have 5 minutes of skill loss if a VvV participant kills him? Is there any skill loss for the pet?
If you are attacked by a VvV player and you are not in VvV, normal flagging rules apply (criminal/murder etc).
Thanks!
