hey, was just done installing the game and was wondering what the real differnece is between the two types.. RolePlaying, and PvP. Now from what I understand.. PvP type is just straight up PvP.. no farming items.. no leveling.. No PvE.. just make a guy and start fighting. Where the Roleplaying type you have to level a character and get items and such.. but you can still PvP if you want to? am I right? Also.. can u switch between the two types once you have chosen one?

Thanks in advance

Yes, RP characters can PvP. There are several places they can PvP.

No, once you choose either RP or PvP, that character will always be that type. You can, however, create different characters for each, say 2 RP characters and 2 PvP characters.

Even if you just want PvP, you will have to go through the game at least once with a RP character just to get all the upgrades, equipment, and runes and such for your PvP characters to use(They can use some items you find in the RP portion of the game).

You use your Rp character to "unlock" better items and skills for you PvP character So I is in your BEST Interest to RP first.
