(Andrew Gower - 'And all three characters can do magic. That's one thing I should probably mention. So it's not like one is magic and one isn't magic; they've got different types of magic. So the Cryoknights have got ice magic, the Guardians have got nature magic, and the Hammer Mages have got sort of storm magic. They can all do range, they can all do melee.')

'''Combat''' is a mechanic in [[Brighter Shores]] in which several [[player character]]s or [[monsters]] fight. All [[factions]] have access to [[melee]] and [[ranged]] combat styles, with each class having a unique type of [[magic]].
 
Combat [[profession]]s are divided per [[episode]]. All [[factions]] have access to [[melee]] and [[ranged]] combat styles, with each class having a unique type of [[magic]]. Players can equip [[weapon]]s and [[armour]] to make themselves stronger, and use [[potion]]s to heal themselves.
[[Special attacks]] are a feature of the combat system.
 
[[Special attacks]] areintended to be a feature of the combat system, but were not yet released with Early Access launch.
{{Mechanics}}
 
Killing a monster rewards [[experience]]. Otherwise, reaching 0 hitpoints in combat will cause the player to [[death|die]] and respawn in the [[Hopeport]] infirmary. Other than lost time and being forcibly moved to the respawn point, there appear to be no other consequences for reaching 0 hitpoints.
