A Complete Analysis of Physical Damage in Genshin (and how to fix it!)

Physical damage is a strange and fascinating part of Genshin's combat system. It works completely outside of the elements and their reactions, and as such, has fallen to the wayside in recent years. In it's current state, physical is easily the worst damage type in the game by leaps and bounds, and can't come close to competing with any elements. But, it wasn't always like this, and it doesn't have to be like this. Physical used to be good, and it has the potential to be so much better. In this video, I break down everything that makes physical so bad now, and how it's flaws can be fixed to make it on par with the elements.
