Guild Wars 2

I’ve noticed that when I go underwater I get the same kind of freezing sound I get when in Frostreach Keep in EotM when under the effects of hypothermia… complete with the ice tinkling and snow crunching, as well as the snow-like crystal sparklies all in addition to the normal bubbles and sounds one would expect when under water. I thought perhaps this was just a thing in colder water areas like in the Shiverpeaks, but even temperate and tropical areas like LA and Southsun seem to behave the same way. Does everyone else experience this? Is this working as intended?

Just seemed a bit odd so I thought I’d ask.

You are probably using the rime rimmed breather from Wintersday which has that freezing effect in itself.
