Core rule server:

- you are "bolstered" to a minimum rank when entering a RvR zone, example, first one, the minimum is level 8 (if you are level 1, youre still stuck with only level 1 abilities though).

- if you are too high level, you are changed into a chicken when entering a RvR zone, so no griefing there, example, first RvR zone, max level is 11 or 12.

Open RvR server:
- you can grief all you want, if you are bullied at school, nothing prevent you from leveling to 40 and go grief level 8 newbies in their RvR zone to give you a false sense of superiority.

Note that some have asked for a 'reverse-bolster', that is you are lowered to the max level of the RvR zone, but no word about that.

Not quite. From the Elder test server.

Open RvR Server Ruleset

Are you ready for the next challenge in RvR? Do you love the adrenaline rush of always having to look behind your back for the enemy? If so, then we welcome you to Open RvR, where you will either shine or falter in a constant battle for glory! Battle your enemies outside of the RvR lakes and affect the fate of your realm! Your Chapter 1 hub and your capital city are the only locations in the game where you have safe confines, of course that is until your city becomes under attack.

Rules:
- Players are always RvR flagged from the moment they log in
- Chapter 1 hubs and capital cities are safe
- There is no bolster buff in RvR lakes
- Players will be chickened when entering lower tiers of content

The open RVR rules haven't been set in stone yet. There's a rather large feedback thread on the beta forums and the main question is if they should keep chickens on open servers or not.

Also when you log off during open beta one of the possible surveys is regarding open RVR servers and it asks you if you think the chicken mechanic should stay on open.

Just put in level restrictions instead of the chicken mechanic, problem solved locking you out of 80% of the game. I just don't understand the point of open RvR as it's counterproductive to go into a PvE area.

The whole chicken thing I think is an easy fix, you turn into a chicken if you are more then one tier below your level. So if you are 30 you can roam in tier II but not tier I.

Will this be updated now that servers are known?

Would really love to know what servers I won't be playing on.

Yeah, start adding your server declaration. I've been slightly lazy on updating the list lately but will do it tonight.

Conflict
Order - Core

We're going to select a server on the first headstart day. Our playstyle is somewhere between bleeding edge and a medium level guild, not super hard-core but 'core' enough. I think the playtime required is somewhere between 25-30 hours a week, but some of the main members will probably be on much more than that. We are actually in need of dps classes at the moment..... and maybe a couple good tanks.
