That's a great question!
Based on what you described, I'd recommend Combat Effects Pack 1 or Combat Effects Pack 5. I think those two fit your needs the best, as they include more effects that match the type of combat you're looking for, such as parries, impacts, and other fast melee-style effects.
Combat Effects Pack 3 is also a good option, but it has fewer effects that match what you're looking for.
One thing I also recommend is adjusting the animation speed if needed. If an effect feels too slow, you can simply speed up the animation or remove a few frames to make it feel much faster and more responsive during combat.
I hope that helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. 😊
