Default Worst In-Game Sound?

(NOTE: This isn't the thread for character voice rants: Rant Here. )

Everyone has a sound they hate in this game. A death yelp, the sound of a hammer hitting...

IMO, the worst sound is the sound...

...of MENDING!

Mending is a DEATH SENTENCE! Once you hear the "brrrrrrrrrwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing" sound, you know you are doomed.

There is also no greater evil on the earth than the sound of multiple Mendings.

Does Tengu henchman count, that freaking bird should be set of fire.

Gotta agree with mending, especially in RA.

Worst in-game sound is by far the "error beeps". There was a big uproar about them a very long time ago with everyone telling Anet to get rid of them. Yet they are still there, just as mind-numbingly annoying and unRPG-like as ever.

The hammer is probably my favorite sound.

What I can't stand is the sound of Mind Freeze, uugnn.

Hmm... least favorite would have to be the sound of enemy Tengu, as I have grown to have a borderline psychotic hatred of them.

Favorite sound would have to be the sound of Stone Summit Dwarves dying when I decide to have some fun and use my Illusionary Weaponry build.

I'm not entirely sure why, but I don't like the Comfort Animal skill sound. Freaks me out somewhat. To me it sounds a bit ominous.

most annoying in-game sound you say ?

Hands down its the Troll roar. Most heard when doing an Infusion run, urgghh!

Runner up has got to be the annoying wolf howls. How people with wolves as pets can stand that noise I'll never know...

Reminds me of the time I was so very bored... selected someone from my friends list and began to ask them 'are Tengu combustable? There are very many, so it seems logical.'

Agree at tengu... the "Wark!" of doom ><

Absolutely. There used to be a bug where that sound was unreasonably loud sometimes but they fixed it in a recent update.

the coolest sound though, is the sound when you put essence bond on someone.

Hehe.. I would cast and recast essence bond on people just to hear the sound. I like it.


But the worst sound is..the sound of bog scales.. so... f'ing annoying..



Best sound ever.. if it counts, would be the bells in shing jea... soothing ^^

Doing missions in ferndale with someone who takes supplies quest and then drops the supplies.....omgggggggggg the endless pinging noise is by far the worst thing in the game. EVEN when you are far away, the pinging chimes on!

I'd have to say the Tengu noise. One reason I hate that Talon is the only warrior hench in the later parts of Factions. Lukas is really full of himself but at least he's quiet.....
