Guild Wars 2

Before the W3 patch, whenever Slothasor fixated on you, besides several visual cues there would also be a sound that could be controlled with the UI volume slider. All was awesome and very useful for those who actually wanted the sound cue.

With the W3 patch this sound stopped happening and we started having the fixation sound in situations that really don’t need any sound cues, as the visual cues are so strong or because the triggering event affects everyone in the party.

Now, as far as I can tell, it hasn’t been reverted to the original behaviour. There are also other fixation situations, namely for the Keep Construct, that would benefit greatly from having this working properly. Instead, we get the sound when the aoe bomb mechanic starts, which is really unnecessary, as it affects everyone and you can’t possibly miss it, unless your screen is turned off…

Can we get some information if this issue is being looked at or if it’s ‘working as intended’ as it is right now? Thanks.
