Traditional Server

These servers run by the traditional RvR rulesets. The concept is the same: you have three realms (Albion, Hibernia, and Midgard), which are all at war with each other over keeps, land, and relics. You may only play in one of these realms on all of your characters when playing on a traditional server, so choose your realm wisely.

Some realms even gain free /level 30 characters as a reward to players who have a level 50 already. This aids in some population imbalance issues, as well as skipping a hefty amount of the early leveling stages.

Roleplaying Servers

Servers with the Roleplay flag set run under traditional server rules (see above); however, these servers are strictly monitored in terms of your chat, names, and behavior. It is important to choose a role and play it accordingly on these servers. For more information on the Roleplaying Server rules, please visit our Official DAOC Customer Support site!

Cooperative Servers

Cooperative servers step away from the traditional ruleset, in that you may play in all three realms on these servers in a cooperative fashion. The server is completely Player vs Environment (a.k.a. "PvE") with the exception of the dueling options. For more detailed information about these servers, please visit the Customer Service Site.

Player vs. Player Servers (PvP)

Much like the Cooperative Servers, the PvP servers allow you to play characters in all three realms; however, despite this, you must fight against others across ALL THREE realms. Player-killing on these servers is not optional. Read more on these PvP servers!

Test Server

Pendragon is also known as the "Test Server." It is where code currently in development is uploaded for public testing before it is patched to the live servers. Players who choose to make Pendragon their home will also receive customer service support; however, it should be understood that problems can, may, and will occur with patches currently undergoing testing.
