PvP, or player versus player combat, is a feature of Wurm where two or more players are pitted against each other in combat. PvP also extended to kingdom wide disputes, and the conquest of land and building of structures throughout the world of Wurm. Currently, the [[Epic cluster|Epic]] and [[Server types|Chaos]] servers are Wurm's PvP servers, while the rest of the Freedom servers are PvE (player versus environment.)
On the Epic servers, players enjoy the benefits of both 2x skillgain and "the curve," which increases item skill effectiveness. Together, both of the benefits make Epic PvP have more fast-paced combat. Chaos on the other hand is the oldest map in Wurm, and the start of war there dates back to 2007. PvP is much more slow paced across a larger map and requires years of work to truly succeed on the server. Chaos is also still connected directly to the Freedom cluster (meaning that you can transfer items and skills,) whereas Epic is on a separate cluster that does not allow skill or item transfer. Both PvP servers offer separate experiences.
