Do we have a PvP community on AD?
By that I mean, people who enjoy most if not all aspects of PvP including, but not limited to: War Mode, Arena, premade BGs/rated bgs (I know the scene is practically dead because of report system abuse), duels, city raids
Defias Brotherhood is as good as dead, not just with RP, but in almost every sense of the word.
Why not go to a pvp server? Because RP doesn’t happen there. I like to at least have the option to find roleplaying opportunities without having some contact on AD that can phase me over.
I’ve met roleplayers that swear duels that play out over /roll can be classified as PvP. Are you saying you aren’t familiar with these type of people at all? Hell, it’s even a preference choice in TRP3.
Due to the limits of the PvP system in portraying IC situations (as an example, if you are on the same faction, it is impossible to represent fights involving more than two people) most people I encounter prefer combat portrayed through emotes, sometimes with rolls attached.
But it absolutely varies. Others feel that the gameplay and visual flair still makes PvP IC worthwhile.
I don’t know any particular guild that puts such emphasis on it though. Rotgarde perhaps?
The PCU Community indeed do much PvP and RP PvP both (along side lots of good RP which is their main focus), especially Grim Gest, and they have good ratings as well.
Though here’s the link to Argent Dawn PvP Discord community:
