    What you can't see because you are so obsessed with buttons = difficulty is that by compressing gnashing fang into a single button you now create space for more buttons that can do more interesting things. For example have some alternate ways to spend cartridges. Right now cartridge economy is braindead simple. If AoE burn it on fated circle, if single target burn it on gnashing fang and burst strike. Maybe pepper in some alternate uses like defensive options, buff options, or boss debuff options.

    If you think a game is about pressing buttons you are playing it at a very basic, very simple level. Games are about strategy and interesting decisions when you are good at them.
    One button combos feels like trash and it is the main reason why we dont have gnashing combo in one button in the first place, devs probably already considered making a one button combo but finally decided to not to go that way for a good reason.
    Having all 3 parts of the combo into separate buttons is giving you a chance to make a use of muscle memory, which is helping you knowing in what part of combo you are already in.
    If you simplify it to one button you are taking it away from yourself, and considering that you never press a button one time in this game due to the super poor netcode of the game you wont be able to tell which part of the combo you are in without looking constantly at the hotbar. You will end up pressing one button and having to pay attention to the skill your character is executing with a continuation to press all the time at the same time, and it will make it extremely difficult to double weave with not only you having to press 2 buttons constantly but also forcing you to pay attention to the hotbar, and all the trouble is simply solved thanks to these 3 buttons which helps you memorize the rotation without thinking too much and having your focus on more important things.

    Guess what, you dolts, you could spread the 1-button combos out. Use to having Storms Eye as your 1-2-3 buttons? Guess what, put 3 of the combo buttons as 1-2-3. WORKS THE SAME WAY!

    I did this when I played PVP and nothing changed. I don't understand the people in this game.
    Oh pvp, great a game mode that has been almot entirely killed thanks to the skills simplifications.
    Cool.
