# Combat Mechanics

Combat in MonkeyRealm is real-time, action-packed, and entirely skill-based. Players have direct control over their character’s movements and attacks using a keyboard, controller, or mobile controls, ensuring an engaging and responsive gameplay experience.

**Key Combat Features:**

• Adaptive Combo System: Each class has unique combo chains and special abilities triggered by precise inputs and cooldowns. Combat varies based on movement state, allowing players to execute different combos while on the ground, mid-air, running, or walking, adding depth and versatility to each encounter.

• Dash & Evasion: Players must actively dodge incoming attacks with precise dashes, which can also serve as a means to break out of an opponent’s freeze or stun from a previous hit.

• Targeted Skills & Positioning: Certain abilities require manual aiming (especially for ranged classes) or strategic positioning (such as area-of-effect spells). Players must move tactically to hit multiple enemies at once or isolate high-value targets.\\

Our combat system draws inspiration from popular RPGs and platform fighters, delivering a fast-paced yet tactically rich experience. The skill-based rewards philosophy ensures that victory is determined by mastery of mechanics, tactical execution, and combo precision—not just character stats. In PvP, the most skilled and strategic player wins, making every fight a true test of expertise.
