Fiery Melee swords.. improve sound FX?

[Ston]

I recently finished playing a fiery melee scrapper through 50 and incarnates and while I'm impressed with the damage, the powerset just doesn't feel like it has impact the way other sets do. Some of this is due to your damage being delayed in the form of DoT, but I think the sound FX of the swords is another issue. Here are my proposed solutions:

 

• Add sound FX from Broadsword's Slash to Fire Sword
• Add sound FX from Broadsword's Head Splitter to Greater Fire Sword
• Add sound FX from Broadsword's Whirling Sword to Fire Sword Circle 

 

These sounds would be added on top of the existing sound FX. Sometimes I can't even tell when I miss enemies with the fire swords because your only indication is a subtle fire sound. I think the set would be much more enjoyable if it actually sounded like you were cutting enemies with a sword made of fire, especially since they do lethal damage. Scorch, Cremate, and Incinerate have great sound FX so I think those can be left alone. Breath of Fire isn't worth mentioning.

I would argue that the sound effects for Katana would make more sense, as the idea behind the Fire Sword, is that is made of fire.. and doesn't have the 'weight' behind it that Broadsword does.

 

But having a 'slice' sound in additional to the 'fwoosh' would definitely be helpful.

You're right. I didn't think of Katana, but that would definitely make more sense!
