Forced PVP-flagging in PVE mode is 100% confirmed

Thank you for your feedback.

As others have mentioned. Even with War Mode turned off you will still be flagged for PvP if you aggro PvP flagged guards, this is intended. This is primarily to discourage people from killing all the NPCs at an opposing factions quest hub with no recourse.

We can appreciate it can be frustrating to be flagged for PvP unintentionally, though in the vast majority of cases this can be avoided by being careful and paying attention to the surroundings. If there are any particular locations that are frustrating in this regard, we encourage you to make a bug report in-game.

As both sides of this discussion have made their points, we’re locking it here before it descends any further.

Thanks again.
