I know Noxious Gnash was difficult for some to manage (specifically around the double Reawaken window) but it feels like removing it has swung the basic combo too much in the other direction. Even if the debuff had to go removing it outright and replacing it with nothing makes the combo feel so weird and bad.

I echo some of the sentiments of people saying they would have preferred the positionals go over this. Honestly when I was saying I wanted the positionals to stay, if I had known the ultimatum would be removing the maintenence debuff, I would have opted to remove the positionals instead.

I created a different thread about this but I think the correct solution would have been to make Reaving Fangs grant a Ninja Armor Crush-like buff to Steel Fangs. Would have been a good way to replace Noxious Gnash maintenance with something that still required attention, and made the basic combo less static but was less annoying.

I don't know I'm just one player. What do I know.
