Blue Names:: Player is in shield mode; they cannot attack or be attacked by any players.
White Names: Player is currently neutral. They may have activated PK mode but has yet to attack anyone.
Pink Names:: Player has definitely killed other players. In
this mode you have a chance to lose items from your inventory and your
equipment slots if you are killed while infamous, so be careful!
Red name:: Player has killed many other players. Be careful
of red names because you can be next. The more kills you rack up the
longer you will stay in this mode. The punishment for death while you
have a red name is far more severe than usual. Killing monsters at or
above your level will reduce the duration of being infamous.
Note: There are lots of safe zones in Perfect World. You can't PK in these areas.
Note: Players are forced into PK status during Territory Wars and
some special activities. There is no death penalty during these times.
Death Penalty
When dying in the game there is always a penalty. Whether it be
just exp lost or something more severe. Below is what you can possibly

Players of different levels and server types will have different PK restrictions. They are as follows:
PvP Server
Level 1-29: Between these levels the users are not permitted to
enter PK mode. They cannot attack or be attacked by other players.
Level 30 and higher: These levels are free to PK. Once users
become this level they are flagged for PVP. There is no way to turn it
off but areas like cities will still be considered safe zones and will
be PK off.
PvE Server
Level 1-29: Between these levels the users are not permitted to
enter PK mode. They cannot attack or be attacked by other players.
Level 30 and higher: These levels are free to PK but in order to
do so the player must activate it themselves. In this way a user will
not have to PK if they do not want to unless they enter areas that
require PK like territory wars.
