World of Warcraft is based on a mixture of a skill-based and a level-based system, as the developers strived to use the best out of both. In order to advance throughout the levels, you will have to fight many enemies and gain a lot of experience, but you should never expect to see Diablo-like action: each move will require careful tactical decision making and strategy elements. Players will be able to fight each other, but they will never be required to do so. In fact, any player who does not want to fight his peers, can simply state so, and will never be attacked by other players (we believe that this issue is closely tied to the inclusion of the customary PvP method of combat - which means that players can choose to engage in a duel or simply walking away). Besides, it's not like you won't have anything to do. Keeping the game exciting at all times, there's the freedom of exploration, collecting and creating items, mastering trading skills, etc. Also, high-level players will have special quests and even entire dungeons, especially adapted for their stats.
