I don't get it... This is a combat basics page not a combat mechanics page. A combat mechanics page (which is harder to create for a MMORPG) has damage formulas, dodge formulas, etc... -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.32.188.25 (talk • contribs)

I think the artice still shows a good overview of the basics of combat for newcomers. -- Chillispike 14:15, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

The dictionary I have in front of me describes "mechanics" as "me⋅chan⋅ics -- (usually used with a plural verb) routine or basic methods, procedures, techniques, or details: the mechanics of running an office; the mechanics of baseball." If a page were to be developed on the damage formulas for every class they could certainly be called "mechanics" pages as well, but it doesn't invalidate the name use here in my opinion. I agree with Chillispike, this is a fine example of the basic methods of combat. Until we have other pages that off up those damage formulas etc, I don't see any reason to change the name of this page.--Kodia 15:14, 14 January 2009 (UTC)
