Guild Wars 2

Since the Twilight Assault patch, by sound effects (specifically the No. 1 skill for the Mesmer’s Great Sword) have been wonky. It’s like it’s only playing part of the sound and I can’t seem to find a cure for it.

I’m uploading a sample of what I mean to YouTube as I write this. I hope this helps to point out my issue.

Once I get the video uploaded I will run a file verification/repair with the GW2 client and see if that finds anything. Will report those results when I have them.

My hardware: Asrock z77 Extreme 6, Intel Core i5 3570k (overclocked to 4.2GHz), 16GB Ram, Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium (PCIe), Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660, 2x Seagate Barracuda 750GB hard drives in RAID0.

This has actually been adressed by a dev here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Mesmer-greatsword-sound/first#post2964633

And it doesn’t just affect the GS#1 but also Scepter #3 as they share the same sound effect. Not sure about other sound effects as these are the only wonky ones I’ve noticed so far.

@Justin, yeah one of my guildies pointed it out after I posted this. The dev tracker post implies that they (Arenanet) are going to fix it, but they are also going to CHANGE it to something different than it was. I hope they don’t do it. I liked that sound.

Thanks for the reply.
