    Default This change has got to go.

    I don't know whether it's because she's a Halfling, or has Monk levels, or a combination of the two- now that U7 has hit, every time she gets hit in combat, she makes this gagging, gurgled squeak that sounds like she's about to throw up.

    I got crabby when you changed me Halfling's run animation, but that was me being sentimental. This new sound file is downright gross- it sounds so much like gagging, that I almost want to throw up when she does it.

    This has GOT TO GO. Please change the sound files back

    Easy solution: Don't get hit :P

    Seriously though, I've heard some monk players complain about this already. Me, I like the "Nyah! Nyah! Nyah!"

    I get the same on my Halfling Warchanter. It made me want to wound and puncture my eardrums.

    Hearing the new bow sounds reminded me of the guard towers in war3. I had a friend playing a ranger, and was like, "Are we playing a war3 tower defense?" =p

    The halfling male sounds like gnomish to me. If not that the next closest thing that comes to mind is leprechaun.

    Or may be they were working on the gnomes and had those sound files on some old disk gathering dust?

    May be spoiled by hobbits and kender but i picture halflings a tad more joyful.

    My beautiful warforged lady sounds like a male halfling when she gets hit!

    Monks sound like pigs now when they attack. They squel. I have to test out getting hit sounds. Whoever was responsible did a terrible job.

    Last night in VoN, while bashing Velah, I seriously started looking around for squeaking little piglets they must've added to reavers for arcane to kite. Turned out it was monk fighting.

    Btw. who thought it's good idea to replace windstance icon with pink cracked pudding I'm bereft of notion.

    I'm none to fond of the noise the male warforged now makes when hit. It kinda sounds like Bender, doing naughty things.
    On Argo I play: Allandra Lvl 17 Rogue, and a few others.

    Far worse is the screechy squealing sound that builds up as you play and doesn't go away until you restart the client. It's so annoying and it gets so loud after about 10 minutes of play that I have to turn sound effects completely off. I depend somewhat on sound effects for feedback. Did that mob get hit by the scorching ray I just fired or did I miss? Well, if I'm not looking directly at the mob I don't know. At least you are still able to keep your sound turned on.

    Im afraid that some developer really hated monks. Hence the touch of death nerf and piggy sounds. How can i get a party with my dark monk when the news spread !

    You can turn it off temporarily (for about one minute) by alt tabbing if need be and computer power allows.

    I have been told that. It doesn't work, at least not for me. Besides that is hardly the kind of thing I want to be doing once a minute.
