Wow Sovrath, you just made things alot more interesting! ^^
I've seen these little portals, but never knew it takes you to your opposing faction and you can attack them!!! Thats brilliant!
Though once I entered to my opponents land and started attacking them, how do I come back/escape? Oh what happens if I die? I just port back to my own res point in my own faction?
If you have a sorc's with you in your party he can make a portal with his skill that will send you back to your side. If you don't have one then you got to keep fighting until you die or use the teleport skill that every class / char has.

Anyways, I played noobie shitty MMORPG, such as Guild Wars etc.. therefore I had to much PvP restrctions in the past... wanted to be FFA PvP/PK, open world PvP... as I'm hungry for pvp!
Thanks
Ok but I need to iterate, it's NOT open world pvp in the way you are wanting. You can't pk anyone in the new player areas (and possibly other areas?) and you can't just head over and start causing panic. YOu need to be lucky enough to be near a portal. That portal will dump you somewhere and then maybe you are in an area where other players are.
It seems the Abyss is the only true open area for pvp.
Like Skyrim? Need more content? Try my Skyrim mod "Godfred's Tomb."
yes its open as long as you and your party stays alive.
Most of the pvp is in the abyss>its big so no worries there.
Most of the pve is back on the mainland for the people that don't like to pvp much.

Also if you go through a rift with a party that has a cleric or chanter, they can res your fallen comrads so you can continue pvping. And having a sorc's in the party so he can make a portal so you can leave the other faction's side when ever you want.
Raiding the other factions mainland is a blast.

Wow, sounds cool! I guess you can attack ANYONE in the opposing faction.... but doesnt that mean you get raped, outnumbered by a horde of other peeps attacking your faction....? :P
I'm pretty sure the portals aren't open long enough to gather an army. It's more along the line of you're grinding with a group and a portal is all, SHAZAAAMMM.
Then you're all, "sweet lez roll 1337 styl3 n pwn sum n00bs"
So ya'll get on teh choppa and spill their koolaide for as long as you can before word gets out and you're nothing but net.
..or something like that.

The Portals are suppose to be random but the korean's have figured out the time when they open and the general areas they open at.
There have been quit large raiding parties that have come through. Its always a fun time when that happens. And you are correct the portal's are only open for like 5-10 min's then they disappear.

Rifts are opened enough time to travel to them, you just have to ask in global chat if someone has spotted them and they shout the location with a cross in the map. The location isn't really random, it follows a pattern, and you know more or less where they are if you look at the sky.
Rifts however have numbers limit, I was with a group of 60 people in a rift that opened next to town and only ~40 people of my group entered it, the other 20 saw how the rift was dissapearing in front of their eyes.
That being said, we caused true havoc, with a lot of healers we reached their city and killed their NPCs (even quest givers) until an even bigger group took us down.
Rifts are without doubts one of the most fun things on this game.

The siege should be pretty fun considering there's a chance the computer faction could roll up and nunja the castle... or pick a side.

Its a shame... though again, its needed, you don't want to start ganking new players and putting them off, and making them leave in the end... naa...
I just really hope the main PvP area is Open world...
and once I port to their area randomly, is it open PvP for me? :P
Thanks :P
