The last thing I want to do in an Elder Srolls MMO is auto-attack and press hotkeys while hits and spells automaically land.

Ideally the standard ES control scheme would be best, but I understand why it might not be possible for a MMO. Though the best MMO combat scheme I've seen is in Tera.

You dodge, block, and hits only count if they are landed.

Controllers can also be used.

Seems like it would work great for ESO.

No.
I hope it's like morrowind where it's dice rolled

i hope attacks have more weight to them than tera does. also tera roots you in place when you attack. i could do without that. tera is a nice cchange from the standard hotkey tab target combat. but i hope teso combat is done much better.
