Initially, there are 8 classes to choose from when you create your character. Choosing one side over the other is merely a matter of preference. For example, a Jedi Knight is the equivalent of the Empire's Sith Warrior a Trooper and the Bounty Hunter are similar as well. A class belonging to one side is - for the most part - fundamentally the same as its counterpart on the other side. They differ primarily in their names, not functionality. The side you choose determines the classes you have access to. The first step to character creation is to pledge your allegiance to either the Republic or Sith Empire. RP servers are available in both the PvP and PvE flavors. Not to worry, though, as this isn't strictly enforced by any game masters. You play, act, and talk as you envision your character would and interact with other players in-character. Role-Playing servers should appeal to people whose fantasy has always been to act out a certain role in the Star Wars universe.
This restriction allows you to run around areas without fear of harassment by members of the opposite faction. The only way for you to engage in PvP is via Warzones or enabling your own flag and waiting for someone to attack you. First of all, there are no contested territories. On PvE servers, you can still choose to eliminate fellow players it’s just presented in a different, if hindered, manner.
PvP servers heavily emphasize this strife between players by forcing them into contested territories where every player is an open target. PvP flags becomes enabled automatically in contested territories, when a neutral player applies a heal or buff to a flagged player, or when the player manually activates his or her flag. The caveat, however, is that players can be attacked only if the person being assailed has his PvP flag active. This is ideal for players who like the prospect of besting other folks in the greater The Old Republic world. Player-versus-Player (PvP as it is more commonly known) servers simply allow for a member of the Republic or Empire to combat another member of the opposite faction. In the case of PvP servers, they may have just unknowingly stepped into the lion’s den. Most of the time, new players simply gravitate to where their friends play without giving the type of server a second thought. These topics too elementary for a guru like you?
