    The title kind of sums up my wants. I am looking for a free to play MMORPG that has the resemblance of World of Warcraft's combat style. Most of the Free to Play MMORPGs that I have played have been disappointing. Most of them had a combat system that was made so that the player has to stand in one position and spam one to any numerous amounts of buttons to achieve victory.
    What I am looking for is the style that WoW has, where you can jump and run around and still afflict damage to the target. Unlike games such as Guild Wars, RF online, and Perfect World. They all have: "Hold still in one place while you inflict melee and ranged damage". While in World of Warcraft you can run around in circles and still achieve the combat that is needed.

    Although in those games you could still "technically" run around afflicting damage, but it is not as smooth as the performance of WoW. For example: on the games I have played, you would have to click or move to a different location, click on the target again, go back to your robot like combat pose and start afflicting damage, and run around and do it again... and in some games this reset the target's HP bar... If you have played WoW, you would know what I am trying to explain. Ranged classes kiting the target, and melee classes running around until their cooldowns on certain spells and their weapon swing coolsdown.

    I'm still playing WoW, but I wanted to experience a MMORPG that was new to me.

    Thanks in advance to all those who took the time to read my paragraph of summarization, and if you need any more explanation of what I am talking about, feel free to ask. I will try to explain it a different way, or even with videos. lol :).

    The only game I can think of is Legend of Ares because you can speed up your attack.

    There's not many, if any, games but WoW that would let you do that. Maybe you could play WoW on a private server or something? That way it's free.

    Yea, we try to stay away from private servers of pay to play games due to legal reasons. They do exist, but we do not want any posted here. Private servers in general might can be mentioned in a conversation, but we don't want any details here.

    I just said private server because that's the only place he can most likely get WoW gameplay for free.
