World of Warcraft has the BEST combat in any RPG ever.

And they've gone and saddled it with a game that makes it a chore to get yourself into an actual entertaining situation to use it after a while. Wahoo.Shafftehr

This argument cannot be used anymore. Instances are alot shorter, there are 10 and 25 man versions to instances with 10 being alot easier for those who cannot do 25 man(the rewards are obviously less), buffs no longer stack,so you don't have to bring the *ideal* group for raids, there are no more attunements and the importance of consumables has been toned down ALOT (one potion a fight).So I have no idea what you want them do again other than that.

EDIT: OP I don't really agree with you, I agree WoW has pretty dynamic combat and is better than most of those games you listed but I don't think it has the best.. very close but not best as yet, just waiting on one other game to tell me.

cause in pvp it's much more intence and unpredictable.Eddie-Vedder

[QUOTE="Jandurin"]fine, if we're talking multiplayer RPG battles, then the MUD I used to play ROCKS WoW and every other game. No contest. And it was free.Eddie-Vedder

In computer gaming, a MUD (Multi-User Dungeon, Domain or Dimension), pronounced /mʌd/, is a multi-player computer game that combines elements of role-playing games, hack and slash style computer games and social chat rooms. Typical MUDs are text-driven, where players read descriptions of rooms, objects, events, other characters, and computer-controlled creatures or non-player characters (NPCs) in a virtual world. Players interact with each other and the world by typing commands that resemble a natural language. It has been argued that modern game-like MMORPGs, such as World of Warcraft, and social virtual worlds such as Second Life can have their origins traced back to the original MUDswikipedia

It has very good combat. I think best will be up to taste.

The problem is that you have all these people trying to turn RPG's into things that they aren't by adding shooting elements and action elements (mass effect, Fallout, etc.).  I think WoW does a very good job of allowing more action into the combat, but leaving it undeniably an RPG. 

It does have a very good combat system but the fact that the game is never ending, that combat system gets very repetitive, just as everything else in the game. Hawkeye1987

Quite the opposite. WoW's combat is tedious, slow and booring. Gamingcucumber

WoW flows like an action game?

It flows like a turn based game.... Which it essentially is.

[QUOTE="Espada12"][QUOTE="Gamingcucumber"] Not really. I had my orc DragoonC at 60 years ago. WoW has a horrible combat system. And browsing your internet does not improve on it. It only proves how booring it is.Jandurin

Didn't read it like that because I know there is a dragoon class in another game, but my bad if anything.Espada12

you even get to use squad tactics. :DSecretPolice

The closest i've come to playing WoW was watching the South park spoof on the game and it did make me :lol: but I'm going to just say I really dig the M.E. combat a bunch. Maybe b/c It was tough for me to see how Bioware could do it this gen where last gens Kotor is yet my favorite game and allowed no real time combat - I dunno but I do like M.E. combat allot and I mean heck, you even get to use squad tactics. :DSecretPolice

Compare it too any bioware DD RPG and you will notice the similarities. 

I preferred Guild War's combat - it might be slightly more simplistic, but it's also far more balanced and skill-focused, rather than gear-focused.Planeforger

This one, limiting the # of skills you equip to 8 takes a lot more strategy than WoW, were you can equip pretty much every skill you find useful.

i liked WoW but the combat was a little boring, not the beat but certainly the best for an MMO not a regualr RPG.
