^ melee has tons of combat depth actually. Positionig mobs and yourself, the push mechanic, interrupting spells, resists, ac vs hp, aggo holding, disciplines, single pulling... list goes on and on and on

Not sure if you are trolling or serious...

I am comparing to modern MMO - Every single modern MMO you have to position mobs and yourself and interrupt spells so this is nothing to get excited about. EQ melee is a step above a MUD in terms of complexity. The inherit "EQ raiding is harder than other MMOs" comes from the fact that healing in EQ sucks and nothing else.

I love EQ, I actually prefer EQ, but to say it has even 1/100th the complexity of combat as a game like WoW is just not even worth debating.
