PK status, name colors and reputation in MU Online

What the name colors mean in MU Online, how PK status works and how to clear your reputation.

In MU Online, the name color tells your story: it shows whether you're a neutral player or a PK (Player Killer). Understanding this avoids penalties.

Dica: Quick answer: killing players outside events makes you PK, changing the name color and bringing penalties (no shops, higher chance to drop items on death). You can clear it over time or by paying an NPC.

The colors and what they mean

StateMeaning
Normal nameNeutral player
PK statusKilled players outside events
High PKMore severe penalties

PK penalties

  • May not use shops and some NPCs;
  • Higher chance to drop items on death;
  • Becomes marked and more targeted.
Atenção: Going around killing everyone has a cost. PK status can isolate you and leave you vulnerable. Think before becoming PK.

How to clear reputation

  • Over time (the status slowly reduces);
  • Killing monsters;
  • Paying a reputation NPC (varies by server).
Nota: "Clean" PvP (without going PK) happens in duels, events (Chaos Castle, Illusion Temple) and Castle Siege. See the guide on how PvP works.

The color shows reputation: normal name (neutral), and tones indicating PK (Player Killer) status when you kill players outside events. High PK brings penalties, like not using shops and dropping items on death.

Over time, by killing monsters, or by paying an NPC to clear reputation, depending on the server. While PK, you're vulnerable and access-restricted.
