Dark Anchor sound

Does anyone else love the sound effect that happens whenever a dark anchor event occurs? The sky covers over with storm clouds, lightning and thunder rips out and then there's that awesome foreboding sound effect. I love it!

    First time I heard it I was running up the east coast of Glenumbra when the sky darkened over a gloomy looking object...the booming sound took me by surprise and got my heart racing. I ran away like a little *** since I was horribly under leveled for the area and was just exploring. Awesome.

    Yes, It always makes me look around for it. Back when they were harder, at launch, it was a siren for everyone in the area to show up. You didn't dare try to do them with less than 4 people.

    Definitely! :) I even showed it to my son (he's not a gamer at all, actually) just to hear that sound, we're both mainly electronic musicians (not only) and I knew he'd love that synthetic sound when a dolmen pops up^^ The whole event has a great atmosphere!

    The first time I saw it was in beta. It dropped down but there were no enemies. It was bugged but I didn't know that at the time. I looked up and thought that it was very cool, but completely useless. It wasn't until the next day when I got the full experience, awesome. I drop by when I see them even if I've done it already.
