PvP system changes

For reaching twice the number of unjustified kills that are needed to get a red skull character will now get black skull for 45 days . Black skull havs the same effects as a red skull and character will neither be able to target an unmarked character nor will he be able to use aggressive area spells. Also, he will receive full damage in PvP during that time. Moreover, if he dies he will spawn in temple with 40 hitpoints and 0 mana.
Last 20 damage dealers that have done damage within the last 60 seconds before the death are counted as killers and get displayed and linked on the character information page of the victim.
New protection zones were added (some shops in Ankrahmun and Port Hope, promotion places, Tibian royals rooms).
Characters are now able to fight back without getting a protection zone block if someone attacks them.
- Except if they play a Hardcore PvP Server.
Two additional symbols were introduced (protection zone block and a new symbol showing that your character stands on a protection zone field).
