Party

Overview

Players can invite other players to a party. Once you are in the same group with other players you can not attack each other anymore and share experience, loot, and other gameplay elements. Players in your party will also appear on your mini map.

(please add a few good images)

Loot will be only assigned to certain party members. This applies loot randomly between players. Use this in general with people you don't know or trust.
