Can you...

Can you have a pve char. and take into pvp i thought you could but how?

You visit the Battle Isles. I think you need to be in LA for it but I'm not sure

You have two place to go to Battle Isle

In Prophecies:
You must go to Lion Arch and the boat will appear on your map.

In Faction:
you must go to Keineng Center to take the boat to the Battle Isle on your map.

Uhm, no, people without Factions can't goto Kaineng Center Francis.

When you get to Lion's Arch, bring up your world map, you should see a boat icon near the Lions Arch city. Clicking on it should give you the option of going to The Temple of Balthazar. From there you should be able to find the different pvp areas. Once you've been to them, you can just goto your guildhall (if you're in a guild and have a hall) and then map to one of the areas from there.

Fixed on my mistake
