A quick guide was released on the website of MMORPG.com written by Kyle Stout about Warhammer Online to help players to survive their first forray into WAR's RvR scenarios.
The details are as below:
Once upon a time, a great man made an excellent quote. He even wrote into a book, and in fact the message was embossed on the front cover. The man was Douglas Adams, not the famous politician, but the science fiction writer, and his famous words were simple - "Don't Panic." Taking this notice to heart, it can provide the most basic of rules for surviving your first foray into Warhammer Online's robust PvP scenarios.

Not panicking is first and foremost, the supreme PvP rule - if there was a PvP version of the Ten Commandments, this would be the first thing etched in stone. When you lose your cool, strategy breaks down along with ability, coherence, and communication. Such a catastrophic failure has only one end - your smoldering husk littering the battlefield (possibly in several large chunks.) Luckily, there are two key factors to avoid getting your dignity stomped upon - realization and experience. Realization is easy; just remember you're playing a game. When your guy dies, gets taunted, or even gets drunk, all these actions have no effect on you, the player. Often, dying numerous times combined with taunting can lead to a frivolous waste of your character's life and a seat in the front row of watching a spawn timer. So above all, staying cool by realizing it's just a game will drastically help your team succeed. As for experience, this can only be gained with... experience. No matter how many times one can read a guide to this or that, or even have someone explain the objective to you, there is just no substitute for good old fashioned experience. That being said, the best way to learn the mission objectives, along with the snipe spots, best healing range, and shortcuts, will come with time. It's great to read up on something, don't frown upon knowledge, just remember that practice makes perfect.
