There are three types of PVP available in Shadow of Legend: (1) PVP within the same camp, (2) PVP between opposing camps, and (3) PK anyone by using the Marauding Flavorant.
PVP within the Same Camp
PVP within the same camp has you utilize the "Matching" feature. The "Matching" feature allows you to have a competitive, yet friendly duel with a fellow comrade. The duel ends when one of you has only 1 HP left.
Select a player whom you would like to have match with, and open the interaction window that is located under the left side of the player's head portrait:

Click on "Invite Match" on the drop-down list, and a small window will appear on the other player's screen, inviting him or her to a match.

Hit "Agree" to begin the match. Once you accept, the system will prompt "Go" letting you know when you can start dueling.

The one who beats the other player leaving him or her with 1 HP is declared the winner.
PVP between Opposing Camps
There are two opposing camps in the Shadow of Legend: Union and Chaos. Due to their different cultural background and faiths, the two camps have been fighting each other for centuries.
When you meet another player from the opposing camp on the battlefield, you can automatically fight him or her without having to match or use a flavorant. Players gain honor and reputation points for fighting members of the opposing camp.

Players who beat those from the opposite camp can win honor points, which not only record the players' saga, but also allow players to trade in honor points for honor armors.

However, players will lose honor points if they are defeated.
PK anyone by using Marauding Flavorant
The item, "Marauding Flavorant", allows you to fight anybody from players to NPCs, and take their dropped items. Be warned though, when using the "Marauding Flavorant", any player or NPC will also be able to attack you.
Purchase a flavorant from the grocer.

NOTE: Players under level 40 cannot PK.
Flavorant options:
1. Junior Flavorant:Last for 10 minutes, no way to cancel its effects once eaten
n Sold at shops
n Dropped by monsters
n Inexpensive
2. Senior Flavorant:Last for 2 minutes, no way to cancel its effects once eaten
n Sold at the Item Mall
n Expensive
When you want to use the flavorant, open up your inventory, and apply the item.

Hit "OK" to apply the flavorant, and an evil property (skull) will appear above your character flagging that you are using the flavorant, and possibly dangerous. The evil property will change colors from white to yellow to red according to your level of crime/accumulated evil points.

Evil Property Guideline:
- Murder increases the Evil Property by 36 points.
- The amount of items dropped depends on the level of your Evil Property. The higher your Evil Property, the more items you will drop.
Dropped Items according to Your Evil Property:
- Bound (No trade) items will NOT be dropped.
- Items dropped will be by each block in your inventory, not the amount in each block.
- Evil Property Name color drop amounts:
o White: Drop ¼ of your items from your inventory at random, except for bound items.
o Yellow: Drop ½ of your items from your inventory at random, except for bound items.
o Red: Drop ALL of your items from your inventory, except bound items
