Queen Bee Infusion

"Queen Bee Infusion: This item's looping audio effect has been removed to address an unintended level of noise."

Really? Removing it completely was the best anyone could come up with? WTF?

It was horrible sound... when QB first appeared ... i turned sounds off and held them off forever.

why don't you just lower the noise volume a bit and then make the sound only appear on the client side for players that use it.

TBH i just dont see why they didnt hook it up the unique sounds thing..but whatever, less annoying sounds i have to hear either way.

Well I guess that troll with 8 queen bees really got what's coming to him...owait except stacking that many infusions...or stacking that many of most of the infusions is eye murder. Although I'd admit stacking 8 of the winter's heart ones are kinda nice. I bet snow diamonds aren't that bad either. This is why we can't have nice things. Trolls ruin it for everyone.

They only removed it, so they could work on it. That's not their final solution.

Im so happy that they removed that annoying sound. Queen bee was over months in my bank, and now its finally viable for me and my ears :)

But disabling the sound in the options would be the better solution, thats right.

A great idea would be to have a "buzzing noise on weapon wield" effect. This effect would be functionally similar to Timekeeper weapons, which play a tick-tock effect upon wielding them. This way you get a unique buzzing noise like before, but it would not be a perpetually played one. Just a one time trigger, which would have a short cool down of how frequently it could be played. Quickly wielding and stowing Timekeeper weapons (out of combat), for example, will only play the tick-tock effect once every 5 to 10ish seconds.

While I'm actually enjoying using this infusion without the constant loud buzzing, I do (generally) really miss the audio. I hope they manage to find a middle ground of some sort soon™ (and moreso hope they don't entirely forget about it or sweep it under the rug).

From memory I got rid of the infusion specifically because of the constant buzzing noise. Oh well.... might have to try it out again eventually.... always loved the visual effect of it though!
