I've checked out Black Desert Online as was suggested earlier.

Setting up some additional 'hot key' attacks like in Black Desert wouldn't be too difficult but I have some questions:

1) What character type is recommended for me to check out the best combat special attacks?

2) I didn't PvP at all so far. In PvP can you anticipate incoming attacks? Can you parry or block attacks? (Does that depend on the type of character you choose?) Personally I found attacks to be very fast and I don't think I'd be able to react to incoming attacks if I was to PvP.

3) So far I've found creatures very easy to kill. Basically, even though some of the special attacks I used looked good, I could kill any opponent so far spamming just my basic attack. Do opponents get more difficult at some point or level where special attacks and strategy are required or at least helpful?

I'll continue checking this game and other games for ideas.

Thanks!
