Lahara

either fix it or take it out. bugged tagging mechanics and group only loot have made this an eye sore on the game.

Been having some issues with sounds effects since last night (right after steam went live)

It started when steam required the download of the game from their site (as to buy the new pack, since you can't buy dlc w/o having the game installed)

Since then a couple things have been happening. First when the game loads to the character selection screen the sound maxes out and becomes ungodly loud. after you make the selection and start loading into the realm the sounds seems to return to normal level's, except for that the some background sounds (especially the disk mounts) are extreamly loud.

I'm still trying to narrow down the actual cause of this but i'm not having alot of luck. it seems to happen on both 32 and 64 bit clients and both 32 and 64 bit browsers. seems to happen on both hardware and software modes (though that shouldn't make a difference.)

I've tried everything i can think of from clearing out the cashe to reinstalling the game, java and drivers.

currently i have jdk_8u25 and the client loads the bundled version 7u67.

Before now i haven't and any problems like this and am currently extremely frustrated as i have spent several hours trying to get to the bottom of this. the sound is bad enough to give me a headache. also, don't tell me to turn off the sound, it's not helpful advice.

Drinking a pot while mounted will make it look as if your running on the ground while still mounted. The normal mechanics still apply it appears to be just an animation bug.

Was running ASV today, Serenity doesn't seem to always removing a negitive effect.
