What do you look for in a combat system?

TERA, GW2, and B&S seem to pull off action-based combat really well.

Yeah, SEEM, so until I have an controller in my hands playing those games, I'm not going to say those battle systems are any better.

Well, by the looks of things, the combat is very responsive and fluid. So that's at least one aspect of those games which compares favourably against FFXIV's combat.

But I will also reserve judgment until i play the game myself. Everyone I know says that TERA's combat is really fun though, so it's probably safe to assume the game plays well.
