    I am also not colorblind, but I too would prefer mechanics to be visually clear instead of ambiguous.
    Easy to understand, hard to execute. Not the other way around.
    If mechanics are only difficult because of missing telegraphs, removing telegraphs to increase difficulty is arguably a bad idea in the first place.

    Mechanics can very well be clearly indicated and still difficult to do.

    Too much of a fight's difficulty relies on removing telegraphs or using alternative, harder to read patterns.
    Also instead of complex puzzle mechanics that play the same every time and require guides to even understand, having intuitive mechanics would greatly reduce the amount of visual clutter required to represent every single detail for a solution.

    I am also not colorblind myself, but I also have had difficulties parsing together visual information due to visual clutter, such as bright lights, too similar color palettes (Pandemonium 3, anyone?) and just a lot of things going on at the same time.
    Recollection especially was difficult to parse visually, for example to the middle bleed puddle blending in with the rest of the arena's flooring and the flashy petal effects distracting me from the mechanics going on.

    Please address this issue by giving players more comprehensive colorblind options and by designing/redesigning fights with clearer visual language in mind.

    The latest fights have become near impossible to play due to all the visual clutter and blinding effects. I wish there were options to at least change the color of the most egregious effects.
