    SOE are currently in the process of revamping the combat. Its a large revamp too. Look at the website for details on it.

    The current combat system is normally to deep for noobs to understand. you have to be able to read the combat log (the chat above the regular chat) and you have to understand clothing buffs, self buffs, skill buffs etc. The best way to understand the system is to get a level 50 mentor or faction that will help you out. simply put on the +10 dodge ranged pants and shirt and you will notice a major difference in getting hit. Then try the different bonuses from skills and you will start to devolop a general knowledge of the system. until then, good luck.

    But isn't the system Matrixy and Iconic?

    They were trying to make it more iconic and Matrixy.

    The Iconic Matrixy combat system will make it into a WoW killer.

    They are working on it.

    Smuggling will be introduced into the Matrix as a new iconic profession.

    I love the combat system in this game, It actually feels like im doing something and then I get to watch the awsome battle sences. Its not my ultimate version of what combat should be like but I find it better then most games out there

    I need to /agree

    It is a rock-paper-sicssors type of thing, but it was better that most out there. I'm sure SOE will screw any potential left in this game to hell.

    Egads, I am shocked anyone would trust SOE to do anything "progressive" to this game. I keep looking at this game with interest, cause the name "The Matrix" has so much freakin' potential, but I see who is sculpting the the entire project, and I am repulsed by the assurance that nothing good can come out of SOE.

    It's a damn shame too...

    They have been in that process since they took it over.  They are famous for to little to late.

    I had Beta tested MxO and played for a few months after it's release. This game was one that actually was better during Beta than Live. The battle system is one of the most unique things about it. I've thought about coming back several times, but when SOE took over, I had to scratch it off my list of playable MMOGs.

    EQ1 - Shaman & Cleric 1999-2003
    Others Played: AC1, AC2, AO, EQ2, EVE(Beta Tester), SWG(pre-NGE/CU), Guildwars, TSO, MxO(Beta Tester), Lineage 1, Lineage 2, WOW, COV/COH, DDO, Vanguard(Beta Tester), DAOC, Tabula Rasa

    Christ, that's gotta hurt for anyone playing MxO. You're all familiar with how they revamped SWG's combat system, right?
