    Please for the love of the Twelve fix GnB sounds.

    The Gnashing Fang combo changes were great, it's a lot easier to tell which part of the combo I'm in, but it feels like it's missing the base-y explosiveness that the effects try to convey, in addition I feel the changes of the Keen Edge combo certainly sound much worse than they used to.

    Can't stress this enough. The class has lost quite a bit because of the changes.

    I'd argue the gnashing fang now has removed the emphasis the explosions had on the sword strikes. You used to feel like you were slicing and dicing an opponent with a fluid combo stringing together, now it feels weighted, heavy, blown up to where its distorted, I have to check my hotbars to remember which part of the combo I'm in now instead of feeling it like before. Even Wicked Talon, while not "awful" sounding now, is still too heavy sounding compared to the old version that sounded fluid, like you were guiding each strike with the momentum of how they were struck to begin with. You heard the slashes and the explosion only emphasized the slashes... now its very brutal and wide sounding, while its somewhat nice, its not really as good as how it was, and the rest of the combo string doesn't even have this type of fluid sound as is so its alone in its existance.

    I agree. First time since I'm playing this game I wrote to the ingame support. I hope enough people will complain so they give is back our slicing sounds. The new one sounds just generic and boring.

    I am signing under everything what he wrote here.
    Right now its just a low quality explosion on 6 skills and it sounds the same.

    I absolutely hate the new sounds. The slicing effect felt great but now I cant distinguish any sounds over the over sounds of the battle, and overall it feels like I'm fighting underwater now (the way the sound is distorted).

    The only way I can explain the "fix" they made is to simply apply an effect over the existing sounds. The result is a garbled mess.
