Combat system: turn based?

I honestly would not mind if realms each had there own combat style that they could pick from. They could change it every 24 hours.

Would give HnH a really unqic combat system.

Interesting. What happens on the non-claimed land. Rotating game mode?

And how about overlapping realms?

Hard enough to get one combat system right, lol.

Oh, I was forgetting about Fallout Online ... I think FOnline 2 is the most played so far, have to check it again.
EDIT: PVP is real-time ... mmmm ...

doing a combat style similar to League of Legends or DOTA would probably be the best choice

give every item in the game you can put in your hand different moves you can use in combat for your combat abilities

Am I the only one who likes haven's current combat system (mostly)?
If I want league-style combat, then I go play league.

I've liked the basis for most things combat done by Seatribe... the problem has oft been in balance or execution, and that's going to be extremely hard given the wide range of stats that can present in any situation as well as making PvE challenging. On paper, many things look great. In reality, that paper has to be able to stand up in a violent hurricane.

I'm of the opinion that combat is hard to balance because of the huge stat disparity between players.
In which case, changing the combat system is not really the solution, but rather changing how stats are gained and scaled.

Look at this real time/turn based smooth transition:
