The Problem With Genshin's Combat 

I think remember them adding enemy kill confirm sound effects back around 3.0. Before the change it was disorienting when you killed an enemy offscreen midcombo and are now hitting air. I too wish they'd add crit sounds.

fav procs sounds pretty satisfying

@@deannaburke4242 There's a lot of things they have to fix with the game's combat. The biggest problem with physical (and geo to an extent), is their inability to break elemental shields. So rather than a superconduct buff, they should rethink how the damage type should work

And why would they rewamp geo element? Whats wrong with it?

@@Uefeti Its trash, thats why. Not only does it have a useless reaction, it also has only one, which further limits teambuilding. Like, you are asking if you don't know why people call it horrible 🤣 If it just got better, there would be SO many more interesting team combinations, considering that the Geo characters themselves aren't bad

@@tamas9554 What’s wrong with having an element which doesn’t play around reactions tho?

@@Uefeti Because it limits characters, and its overall missed potential. One other problem is that, the game's combat is built around elemental reactions. And even then, the role is already filled by physical damage. Geo ending up like this wasn't intentional, Hoyoverse was still experimenting with this type of combat when Genshin came out. Maybe in Natlan, they fix some issues

It would be more noticeable between different characters. Claymores would overall sound stronger than, say, catalyst users.

It's not just that tho. When you switch to a character their vision will glow up and make noise for a split second, which you won't notice if the camera ain't up their ass.

The real problem is the fact that Elemental Mastery was nerfed during beta 1 of the game as well as fixed stats, however nothing was done to character's kits and artifact sets. Elemental Mastery used to give elemental DMG bonuses as well as reaction damage, Keqing and Lisa were very powerful because of that. This feature was removed in order to balance the Goblet pieces, in which almost no other Goblet was worth using over EM, save for very specific cases. And fixed stats used to contribute to base values, which means they'd be multiplied by the percentual versions much like the character's base values. Lots of characters were screwed over by these changes, but their "no change allowed" approach to characters made it so if a character got royally screwed by an overzealous nerf, then that character is permanently dead because they certainly aren't going to buff it or redesign their kit. Same for 90% of Geo characters who has the main part of their kits immediately destroyed by bosses because of poorly made pathing, basically, Geo constructs tend to break enemy pathing which would cause problems such as enemies failing to get close to players or players managing to lock them in place. That is the reason behind geo structures being one shot by most bosses. To the detriment of Geo characters instead. So it's not fair for bosses to be trivialized, but it's totally ok for a character to become a dead slot on the team because they won't do the right thing and redesign these characters.

The sound when I hit a weak point with a bow is gorgous. But other than that, gg

The only crit sounds I get is a loud hitting sound when I headshot hillichurls 😭

I've never played horizon zero dawn, but yeah I agree with what you're saying about navias E. On top of it, I know burst damage, especially high risk high reward situations, tend to result in an overall positive experience for the player. Even if they miss, the potential and anticipation for when the skill comes back can be exciting by itself.

Sorry about the confusion lol, but I'm just talking about the individual hits, not the overall attack. Yes overall it has the highest scaling, but the 1 attack has 2 very distinct hits, so it's still off-putting to me.
