Ever since the Patch that nerfed the audio cue for Major Heroism, I can no longer hear this set effect proc like how it did before. Is this a bug or intended? I miss the old "dragon" sound effect that came with it whenever you would proc this set. Now after using it, there doesn't seem to be any sound no longer. :/

    It should be a reduced sound. But you should still hear effects.

    Could you confirm if you are hearing nothing vs. a reduced sounds? And does adjusting audio help in hearing the sound? If it makes everything else too loud, please note that as well.

    I've confirmed it. I have tested it multiple times with all sounds on and I do not hear even a reduced sound effect at all. Just nothing but the yellow effect to let me know it's procced.

    We'll escalate this to the team. We'll follow up with additional questions, if needed.

    After some investigation, we are not able to replicate the issue. The audio for this set and Major Heroism is working as intended on the live servers, based on our testing. If you could submit a ticket, we could have someone else take a more individual approach to testing this issue.

    I have now. I'm still not hearing anything on my end. Just the visible yellow cue is all I see.

    So, I have sent a ticket, and I also seem to notice that the sound effect is missing from the Dragon's Herald weapons as well.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there supposed to be a sound effect whenever you unsheathe these weapons? It is supposed to be the same audio cue that the Drake's Rush set uses, it's missing.

    I was hearing the standard Heroism hum yesterday while running Drake’s.

    I do have all default sound settings

    There's supposed to be a draconic like audio cue whenever it procs. Did you hear that as well?

    I’ve actually never heard that one. I only ever heard the hum from Heroism

    Every time the set would proc, there would always be a draconic audio cue, similar to whenever you would use the DK leap ult. That so far, is what I have noticed missing.

    I used the Drakes Rush in u46 and did not notice any draconic sound effects. Just the heroism or whatever that sounds like a sword unsheathing. Although maybe that is the sound of the proc set. I'd have to check again in game.

    I no longer hear any audio when I proc the set. I don’t have my sound up super high but I used to hear it fine.

    Exactly! I no longer hear it either. Not even on the Time's Herald weapons pack

    Tried testing this as of today but still do not hear the audio cue of this set effect. Just the light hum of the heroism effect itself.

    I haven't tried post-incremental but I was informed by groupmates that they heard the heroism effect ending and no other sound. I heard no sound at all.

    Me neither. Still nothing. At least from the set audio itself

    Oh so glad I saw this thread. Just came back to the game after a several months break and was going crazy.

    The sound has not been working for me either, as a data point. Really annoying because it's not always easily clear now if you got the proc or not.
