Genshin Impact players furious over \u201cterrible\u201d Neuvillette nerf in 4.8 update HoYoverseGenshin Impact players are calling out HoYoverse over a Neuvillette nerf, which has made the 5-star Hydro character \u201cterrible\u201d to play. As part of the Genshin Impact 4.8 update, HoYoverse has made adjustments to Neuvillette\u2019s charged attack. Before the patch, the Hydro character could rotate his water beam at high speeds, enabling him to quickly acquire new targets. This enabled players to rapidly spin 360 degrees, dealing damage to all enemies simultaneously. Well, it turns out that this was a bug and not an intentional part of his kit. As of July 17, 2024, HoYoverse has now fixed this issue and rewarded players with free Primogems. However, following the change to Neuvillette\u2019s charged attack, Genshin players have taken to social media to voice their anger over the \u201cterrible\u201d nerf. Genshin Impact fans slam Neuvillette nerf \u201cIt just seems really clunky by how they\u2019re force-slowing him. He feels way worse to play than he did before,\u201d wrote one unhappy player on the Genshin Impact Reddit page. \u201cI hope they revert it like the Yae Miko totem bug fix.\u201d Others were keen to highlight how HoYoverse could nerf Neuvillette\u2019s beam speed without making him feel clunky to play. \u201cRather than nerf the camera rotation, HoYoverse could have limited the hitscan to only hit targets seen in the first 90\u00b0s of rotation every 0.4s,\u201d explained one commenter. \u201cThis way rapid spinning around would cause a DPS loss (which is fair), without the clunky gameplay.\u201d Since the nerf went live, players have reported that using Neuv\u2019s beam is now extremely difficult to sue against more mobile enemies. This is especially true when facing bosses like Childe and Arlecchino, who use their agility to weave in attacks. The problems don\u2019t just end there though, as even killing Spiral Abyss mobs is proving tricky \u2013 an area that is needed for clearing floors within the time limit. \u201cI just played a few hours ago and even though I positioned Neuv a bit far for him to easily hit many enemies just by turning, it sucks,\u201d wrote another Neuv main. \u201cPrior to the nerf I could kill both final 2 enemies on his Artifact domain just by switching. now, I can\u2019t do it. wastes too much time switching even with proper positioning.\u201d Some members of the Genshin community also believe HoYoverse has tactically nerfed Neuvillette to push more people into rolling for Mualani. This character will be released in the Natlan update, alongside Mavuika and other new units. While it\u2019s currently unknown whether the devs will make any additional adjustments to Neuvillette\u2019s beam speed, the devs have now outlined all the characters that will be coming in the Natlan update, so be sure to check them out here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
