# PvP Ranking ### Overview The **PvP Ranking System** tracks player versus player combat across the server. It features multiple leaderboards including total kills, kill streaks, and guild-based "ownage" statistics. Players can view rankings, check their personal stats, and compete for the top positions. **Location:** Prontera (167,289) - PvP Rank NPC ### NPC Features #### 1.

Explanation Detailed explanation of how each ranking system works (see sections below) ### How Kills and Deaths Work #### Kills * **Counted:** When you kill another player in PvP * **Not Counted:** Killing monsters, homunculus, or pets * Kills are permanent and accumulate over time #### Deaths * **Counted:** When you are killed by another player OR when you suicide (e.g., using Grand Cross) * **Not Counted:** Deaths from monsters, homunculus, or pets * Deaths reset your current streak but don't affect your total kill count ### Kill Streaks #### How Streaks Work * Your streak increases by 1 for each player you kill * Streaks reset when: * You log out * You are killed by another player * You suicide (e.g., Sacrifice skill) * **Streaks do NOT reset** if killed by monsters, homunculus, or pets #### Streak Announcements As your streak increases, you'll receive special announcements at certain milestones: * **Killing Spree** - At a certain number of kills * **Dominating** - Higher streak milestone * **Mega Kill** - Even higher achievement * **Unstoppable** - Impressive streak * **Wicked Sick** - Exceptional performance * **Monster Kill** - Outstanding streak * **Godlike** - Near-perfect performance * **Beyond Godlike** - Ultimate achievement *Note: The exact kill counts for each announcement are configured by the server.* #### Highest Streak Record * Your highest streak is permanently recorded * The system tracks when you achieved your best streak * This record appears in the "Highest Streak" leaderboard ### Guild Ownage System #### How It Works * **Ownage increases** when any guild member kills a player from a different guild * **Ownage resets** when ANY guild member is killed by ANY player (including guild members) * **Ownage does NOT reset** if a guild member is killed by monsters, homunculus, or pets #### Important Notes * Ownage is tracked per guild, not per player * All guild members contribute to the same ownage count * If the server restarts, your current ownage survives * The system records your guild's longest ownage achievement ### Ranking Restrictions #### Minimum Level Requirement * You may need to kill players above a certain base level to count * Lower level players killing higher levels always count * Higher level players killing much lower levels may not count **Example:** If there's a level gap restriction: * A level 1 player killing a level 99 player = **Counts** * A level 99 player killing a level 1 player = **May not count** #### Anti-Abuse Protection * The system monitors for players repeatedly killing the same person * If detected, your actions may be announced publicly and reported to GMs * This prevents artificial ranking manipulation ### Tips for Players 1. **Maintain Your Streak:** Avoid logging out or dying to keep your streak going 2. **Target Appropriately:** Make sure your targets meet level requirements 3. **Guild Coordination:** Work with your guild to build ownage counts 4. **Check Rankings:** Regularly view the leaderboards to see your position 5. **Study the Explanation:** Use the "Explanation" option to understand all rules ### Understanding the Rankings #### Most Kills Ranking * Shows total lifetime PvP kills * Deaths are shown but don't affect ranking position * Higher kills = higher rank #### Highest Streak Ranking * Shows the best single streak achieved * Includes timestamp of when it was achieved * Only players with streaks above the minimum threshold appear #### Longest Ownage Ranking * Guild-based achievement * Shows the longest consecutive kill chain by any guild * Includes timestamp of achievement * Only guilds with ownage above the minimum threshold appear ### Personal Statistics When viewing "Own Information," you'll see: **Individual Stats:** * Current active streak (resets on logout/death) * Total lifetime kills * Total lifetime deaths * Highest streak ever achieved (with timestamp) **Guild Stats (if applicable):** * Current active ownage count * Longest ownage record (with timestamp) ### Notes * **Kills and deaths** - they reset in monthly basis * **Streaks are session-based** - they reset when you log out or die * **Guild ownage is shared** - all guild members contribute * **Monster deaths don't count** - only PvP deaths affect statistics * **Suicide counts as death** - using skills like Grand Cross or Sacrifice will reset your streak * **Rankings update -** in real-time as players engage in PvP --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
