PvP and the Wild Zone
Duels, the arena, and the Wrothgarian Mountains, the one place you can kill and rob other players.
You cannot pickpocket another player. The only way to take a player’s things is to kill them in the open zone.
Duels and the arena
- Duels: inspect a player and press Challenge. Outdoors only. You fight inside a 12-metre ring and your record goes on your profile. Nothing is looted.
- The arena in Daggerfall city runs ranked bouts with a ladder. Nothing is looted there either.
The Wild Zone
Part of the Wrothgarian Mountains is an open PvP zone, online only. It is marked on the world map with red borders and fog.
Deeper is richer
Monsters there have 4× health and 4× damage, and drop twice the gold, twice as often, with twice the chance of rare pieces. On top of that, the zone has four rings:
| Ring | Extra loot | Fast travel inside, per trip |
|---|---|---|
| The Foothills | +25% | 2,500 gold |
| The Passes | +50% | 5,000 gold |
| The High Crags | +75% | 10,000 gold |
| The Heart | +100% | 15,000 gold |
Fast travel within the zone has a 10-minute cooldown. You cannot fast-travel into or out of it except from the overworld map.
Other players
Anyone outside your party and guild is a stranger, marked red on your map from 1.5 km away, with a warning at 600 m.
If you die there
You wait 2 minutes before you can respawn.
| You keep | You drop |
|---|---|
| Everything you are wearing (unless a player killed you, see below) | Everything else in your bag |
| Potions, torches and lights, food and water, bandages, arrows | Everything in your cart |
| Camp kit and campfires | Half your gold |
| Quest items, your wallet and its contents | Letters of credit |
If another player killed you in the open, they may also take one piece you are wearing. Your party and guild cannot pick up your remains.
Getting out
Type /unstuck to walk to the nearest town. In the zone it has a 60-minute cooldown.
Look it up
- Loot in the Wild Zone is better than elsewhere, but it comes from the same tables: Loot and drops, Loot tables.
- Repairing what a fight breaks: Repairs and armour.
