Ambience sound resembles something...
Hmm, where is that? I want to check it out -- if it’s as you describe, perhaps there’s dialogue before it to set up a joke?
There’s a harp-sounding bit of looping music in The Grove near the center/top area. It’s quite peaceful, but at first I was confused due to not having the background music on when playing.
The monastery in Queensdale used to play this weird sound when you were around it, like machines or something were going to work underneath the ground (different from the spaceship sounds of the Underworld portals). I don’t think that happens anymore, though.
I’ve found the puffing panting lady all over the place, really, although most prominently in Salma district due to the lack of other NPC dialogue in there. It may take a while, but it’s so distinctive, it’s hard to miss.
I checked the Grove by the by, and that is a lovely little tune.
In the bottom level of Rata Sum there are this asura dancing and other asuras cheering around him while this simple beat plays on the back ground. You can only hear it if you stand on the same platform as they do or at least very close to it.
The ‘Uhhh’ lady is having a real good time in Divinity’s Reach, it seems. I’ve explored DR many times and never heard this, but she’s going off constantly around Tixx’s dungeon entrance today, and elsewhere in the city.
Besides it sounding like what it sounds like, it also seems to be much louder than any other ambient voices. There’s gotta be something bugged out about this.
I hear the UHH! lady quite often when playing on my human lowbie and using the crafting stations in DR.
