I know that we currently dont know anything, about the finished combat system, but here is an interesting point to discuss:
Do you think that an automatic backstab effect would be good or bad in the game.
I believe that it would be really interesting, if an attack from the back would automatically do more dmg then from the front, and had a higher chance to crit.
Why do i think that?
Well for the most part, because that would bring players to automatically try to get into the enemies back, and it would enhance the player experience in my opinion. Imagine a PvP scenario, where mages actually had to really think about blinking away from enemies, because that could lead them to expose their back to them.
Another cool thing would be a flanking bonus (like you are at the side of the enemy and someone is behind it, leading to an extra attack bonus)
That way people would try to cooperate a bit more in fights against bigger creatures. ^^
(It could be that these are already confirmed or refuted, but i didnt find anything about this on the wiki so here we are!
)
