I play on a PvE server, and today I had a strange experience. I saw 2 people fighting each other for the first time. Being a cleric, and also being a little mishevious, I decided I would heal one so he could live and kill the other >:D
But nothing happened. My heals didn't touch them. I couldn't rez them when they died. The channel started, and I lost mana, but no cast happened. Is this how PvP works on a PvE server? Is the server split in two, where PvPers can't physically interact with PvEers? I guess this makes sense, because then PvPers would walk around with armies of PvE clerics who wouldn't have to worry about dying.

    no its just that you have pvp off prolly, on pve servers, you can turn pvp on/off from the top left hand corner of ur mini map.

    Yeah, that's what I'm taking about. Can PvE players not help/interact with PvP players?

    They can. If you look at a persons name when they fight another player, you may see crossed swords. As long as those swords are there, they can't be buffed/healed by another player.

    The only way you are able to help someone with swords next to their name is to enter PK mode as well. Mind you, this will cause swords to go by your name as well.
    As stated, while swords are next to your name, players who are not in PK mode will not be able to heal you/buff you/touch your butt.

    I thought about doing that myself once i gto to a higher lvl! then realized that is impossible lmao because it would be so unfair! and knew before hand it wouldnt work.. Later i had got confirmations from someone who has tried and it didnt work but that would be funny to see a tank with an army of clerics following him arround in pve but, they could go pvp and it would work i mean how many ppl are gonna have an army of pk clerics with em they could just heal eachother if attacked lol
