Guild Wars 2

I’m not sure if others have reported this, and it isn’t game-breaking by any means, just a bit annoying.

The sounds when swinging a greatsword and maybe other two handed weapons on human females are:
80% sound like a chipmunk or that my character has inhaled some helium before the fight.
10% sound normal as my character (in my opinion) should sound and
10% sound lower in tone as I might hear from a Norn female.

Has anyone else noticed this? I’ve seen other reports of sound issues but not this one so far. Thank you for your time.

I noticed exactly the same thing, in fact I reported it as well with a video that demonstrates how bad some of the combat sounds are. Let’s hope for a fix!

Yeah, as a female asura I get male asura, female human/norn etc sounds when I use buffs and such.

It isn’t too game breaking for me, but this has been happening for me since headstart.

Had similar things with a female Sylvari Ranger, when she got hit or attacked with melee weapons (sword or greatsword specifically), she’d make these super high pitched noises that don’t match the normal voice at all. Ended up rerolling her to a female Charr just because of that. Would be nice if they tweaked some of those combat noises.

Seems we get Asura female sounds mixed in. Seems someone got their wires cross :P

Been having this problem and it just makes playing my warrior way too goofy.
