Allows Combat Against Other Players

Introduced in version 0.7.0 patch, PvP allows players to battle with other Pal Tamers in a public or private server. Challenge yourself and show off the strength of your Pals in a brutal battle to victory.

Rewards from PvP Matches

Winners of PvP matches are rewarded with Champion's Emblems or the opponent's gear, depending on the server's set rules.
