We wanted to know from you which MMORPG has the best combat system. We have now evaluated the voting and can present you with the five MMORPGs that performed best in the survey.
On July 5, 2017, we wanted to know from you in a survey which online role-playing game you thought had the best combat system. In addition to classic tab-targeting systems like World of Warcraft, modern action combat systems like Black Desert Online, as well as hybrids like Guild Wars 2 were also available for selection. The survey results have now been evaluated, and we present here the top 5 MMORPGs with the best combat systems.
The best MMO combat systems place 5 – TERA
With 10 percent of all votes, TERA landed in fifth place in our survey of the best combat system. The colorful Korean online role-playing game from Bluehole Studios (now better known for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds) has been on the market in Europe since 2012 and was recently relaunched here on Steam.
TERA offers you a large, colorful world full of content in PvP and PvE, as well as sexy characters in typical Asian comic graphics. However, the dynamic action combat system of TERA is still considered a major highlight.
You will search in vain for tab-targeting and fixed target selection; you must actively aim your attacks with the crosshair and not just mindlessly hammer the trigger of your skills.
TERA – Not a game for couch potatoes
In addition, you can specifically dodge attacks. If the opponent does not hit you at all, you do not take damage. Therefore, TERA is really not for those who like to take it easy in MMOs and who are reluctant to move in combat.
In TERA, you will be asked for full physical involvement in the game, but in return, you will get action-packed battles that become particularly spectacular against the occasionally massive bosses in dungeons and raids. Your abilities must be perfectly aligned with the diverse attacks of the boss in hard modes; otherwise, it can quickly lead to death. Pure adrenaline, Dark Souls greets!
TERA – The optimal classes for an action combat system
Another plus for TERA: You have a thick selection of races and classes. The playable races are particularly interesting in TERA; for example, you can play powerful dragon beings, small chubby hamsters, or sexy demon beings with horns.
The class selection is even more impressive and features hero types that fit particularly well with TERA’s dynamic action combat system. For example, the new Moon Dancer, who performs area attacks with a glaive, or the close-combat brawler Storm Fury, who relies on combination strikes and complex counters.
Next, we continue with number four of the top 5 of the best combat systems.
