PvP

PvP allows players to compete against one another in one of several unique duties. These duties involve battles fought against other players rather than in-game creatures and incorporates an independent battle system with its own set of unique rules.

In order to participate in PvP, players must first complete one of the following quests associated with their Grand Company:

Requirements
A job level 30 or higher is required to participate in the Wolves' Den, Frontline, or Rival Wings.

Player attributes and jobs
When entering a PvP instance, all player attributes, including item level, will be updated to their PvP counterparts.

Duties that allow players to change roles will be restricted to jobs only.

Battle system
Spell casting cannot be interrupted by taking damage. The following are unavailable in PvP duties:
 * Auto-attack
 * Blocking with shields
 * Parrying
 * Critical hits
 * Direct hits

Players can gain resistance to the following status ailments:
 * After being inflicted with a status ailment, players will temporarily gain resistance to said ailment when its effect wears off.

Actions
Players will be limited to a unique set of actions and traits that can only be used in PvP duties.

General actions
Certain actions will be unavailable during PvP duties.

Hotbars
When entering a PvP instance, all hotbars will be updated to their PvP counterparts.

Adrenaline Rush
In the Feast, adrenaline rush will replace the limit break action and unlike limit break, can be used by single players. The adrenaline rush gauge can be filled through combating enemies and other objectives dependent on the PvP duty. The adrenaline rush action performed will depend on your role.

Text commands
PvP actions also require unique text commands.
