PvP character creation

Overview
Opposed to Roleplaying characters, PvP characters can only be used on the arenas, in the Tombs tournament or in guild matches. PvP characters are made to play combinations of professions that are not covered by the Roleplaying characters, to fit into a team build, or to experiment with new builds. Making a PvP character can be done in less than 5 minutes.

Choosing the Profession
First, the primary and secondary profession of the character must be choosen. Don't worry, at each point in the character creation process you can go back and change your choices. Alternatively, you can choose one of the 12 character templates. Templates can be altered like other PvP characters, however you can use their skills, even when you have not yet unlocked them. Once the PvP character is made, the professions can no longer be changed.

Setting Attribute Points
You can choose the distribution of attribute points during the character creation as well as after the character creation, just like Roleplay characters. The PvP character has 200 attribute points to spend, equivalent to a Roleplay character that has solved the Forgotten Wisdom and The Hero's Challenge quests. You can only put points in the Primary attribute of your chatacter's primary profession, just like a roleplaying character.

Choosing Skills
Skills can be choosen during character creation and later in the game. You can choose from all skills that you have unlocked either with your Roleplay characters or by handing in faction at a Priest of Balthazar.

Choosing Apearance
You can choose your apearance, including basic dye colors. This can also be used to try out different colors for your Roleplaying character's armor.

Choosing Equipment
You can choose between several PvP weapons and armor types. These are competitive with respect to the best PvE equipment. However, they can only be used by your PvP character (but your PvP character can use PvE equipment). The weapons can be upgraded with weapon upgrades, the armor with runes - provided you have previously unlocked the upgrade or rune. You can only use armor and runes from your primary profession, just like a roleplaying character.

Choosing Name
Lastly, you need to give your character a two-word name.

Starting Location
The character creation process asks you where your character should be placed first: Competition Arenas, Tombs, or the Guild Hall. However you can reach all locations (as well as the Team Arenas) by using the Map.
