Anyone here itching for some chaos?

Next week, we'll be holding maintenance for a new Content Drop with thousands of changes, fixes, etc. At the same time, we will be flipping Nexus to be a PvP server ruleset for 5 days. During these 5 days, ANYTHING GOES. That's right. There will be blood, tears, and lots of griefing all around.

We need to see how a true PvP realm operates on a mature realm, and thus for five full days, we will not be doing anything to stop players from wrecking shop against their opposing faction, and will be doing everything we can to encourage it.

Here's what we need from you:

1. Feedback on how the PvP ruleset works/doesn't work. Does it favor one faction or another? Are the "rewards" for killing another player worth it?

2. EXPLOITS (AND LOTS OF 'EM)

1. Did you figure out how to get somewhere you clearly weren't supposed to be? Have you figured out how to kill players during their PvP immunity state? Post all the data you can find in the PvP Week Forum so we can take a look.

3. Best (and worst) ways to grief and gank players

1. What's the quickest way to progress on a PvP realm? Is it sitting at a holocrypt, spawn camping other players? Is it kill trading? We want to see what the gameplay drives you to do in order to progress so that we can adjust and rebalance our designs as needed.

As we mentioned above, when this ruleset happens, ANYTHING GOES. With the following exceptions, of course:

1. Don't do anything that would cause the server to crash repeatedly. If you discover one of these issues, use /ticket in-game or visit the Support Site to let CS know about the crash you've discovered.

2. Don't engage in any PvE-related exploiting. Taking advantage of bugged quests, vendors, or anything else you discover could still result in your removal from beta.

3. REPORT EVERYTHING. Those who choose to engage in less-than-friendly behavior are welcome to do so during these five days, on the condition that they actively provide PvP Realm feedback on the forums, through /bug, or /ticket.

4. Customer Support will not be responding to any reports of griefing, ganking, or unfair PvP during these five days. If PvP isn't your thing, we'd highly recommend getting out of dodge during this event. Go hide in Thayd or Illium if you want, but you probably won't be safe there either. ;)

We're really excited to see what ensues next week, and there will be plenty of devs wandering around the world just waiting to be killed. Do your best to make us proud!

Murderous Rampage Incoming,

Team WildStar

PS. Sorry, Alienware weekend testers, unfortunately this event won't begin until after your event ends. We'll see you in a future event, hopefully!
