Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen has been talking about its self-described “raw” PvP server plans for a little while now, but the time for talk has ended and the time for wanton ganking is now: The game’s two FFA PvP servers are now online after a brief delay. (And they’re apparently coming back down at 1 p.m. EDT today for an update too.)
As we’ve reported before, these two new servers – The Dead Vault for US East players and the Union of Shadow for US West players – will feature unbalanced and extremely rough PvP balance and rules: Corpses will be lootable but equipped gear will not drop, and PvP engagements will happen only if characters are within five levels of one another. Visionary Realms notes that the US East server will be the primary PvP server, with the US West server will be offered for those who worry about lag or find the first server full. The game’s Discord has also opened a PvP discussion section that is already pretty active – and spicy.
While these PvP servers are the main attraction for this week, there are other updates for the MMORPG overall that include adjustments for classes that mostly zero in on the recently added Druid, consolidation for several crafting schematics across multiple professions, and the return of auto-combining stackable items via right-clicking in the bank, which was previously disengaged due to some issues, among other bug fixes.
