Protection status is indicated by a ”(P)” beside HP display on the information bar on top. While under protection status, captains cannot be attacked in PVP. Being in protection status does not restrict any actions. All ships gain protection status when salvaged. Protection status automatically wears off after 12 hours.

Protection status can be instantly lost by attacking and clan wars. It will not be lost by defending in clan wars. In addition, it can also be removed manually prior to the 12 hour expiry by clicking on the “Remove Protection” button found in the Hangar or when Quick Repairing.
