Anyone on the dev team, please change the taunt sound effect back. The one from the presence pool is AWFUL. Thank you.

Villains : AtomBomb (50 Rad/Kin corruptor), Aleks (50 SS/Inv brute), StoneLethal (50 EM/Stone brute), Davroz (50 Bots/Dark mastermind)

Yeah I'd love customizable taunt myself. You only need a few different vocals of "You're all under arrest" and then what could be cool is a second later a random background voice shouts "Get that one". Better than any Urrgh Arrgh. So the taunt power could be made up of two vocals, one we pick and a reply thats a random reply. On a target like an AV that would, being the last one standing and so have no one to say "Get that one" too, the taunt could be, "I'm taking you in" and the random reply could be "Over your dead body" or something.


He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.

That would be perfectly acceptable as well.

There seem to be at least three or four different sounds depending on your attack set. When my BS/Shield scrapper uses Confront she makes a horrible honking sound and then bangs on the shield when the shield is out, but when no shield powers are active she makes a more acceptable "Ah!" sound.

Do Shield/BS tankers do the same thing with Taunt?

It used to be all tankers had the Ahhhh! sound. Now they do this constipated sounding grunt.

My elec / mace tank, she does the "Grrrrrrr" noise, which sounds like... somebody putting up a valiant struggle against constipation to be perfectly honest.

The Invul / Elec melee Im toying with, she does the "ha ha" which is fine.

The Invul / SS the main guy, he goes "Hurrrr" instead of "ha ha"

I literally dread taunting when Im on my elec / mace tank. Its an embarassing noise

i dont usually pay attention to taunt most of the times, the only time i notice a difference is for model size

theres different taunt sounts for male, huge, and female models

As long as we're wishing for ponies, I'd like a version of the Taunt powers with *NO* sound effect. Honestly, I don't care for any of them. Not that it's a big deal in my case, as I don't play Tankers at all and generally ignore Taunt powers on any other characters.

I come granting wishes! It is within your power to silence and even change certain in-game sounds! Simply follow the instructions in this link and you can modify your sounds however you like. For simplicity's sake, here are the files you'll want to add to your sound folder:

data/sound/ogg/Player/*

FemTaunt1.ogg
FemTaunt2.ogg
FemTaunt3.ogg
FemTaunt4.ogg
FemTaunt5.ogg
FemTaunt5b.ogg
FemTaunt6.ogg
FemTaunt7.ogg
FemTaunt8.ogg
FemTaunt9.ogg
FemTaunt10.ogg

MaleTaunt1.ogg
MaleTaunt2.ogg
MaleTaunt3.ogg
MaleTaunt4.ogg
MaleTaunt5.ogg
MaleTaunt6.ogg
MaleTaunt6b.ogg
MaleTaunt7.ogg
MaleTaunt8.ogg
MaleTaunt9.ogg
MaleTaunt10.ogg
MaleTaunt11.ogg
MaleTaunt12.ogg
MaleTaunt13.ogg
MaleTaunt14.ogg

And for good measure,

data/sound/ogg/powers/*

Taunt1.ogg
Taunt2.ogg
Taunt3.ogg
Taunt4.ogg
Taunt4b.ogg
Taunt5.ogg

Note that you are not modifying game files in any way; this change only affects your client, and is allowed under the EULA. You can use a program like Audacity to create silent files, or to add in your own sounds.

I don't know which sounds are which on that list, but I'm sure you can work them out with a little trial-and-error. Have fun!


Shortspark: 50 Fire/Fire tanker
Emberblast: 50 Fire/Fire blaster
Jessie Inferno: 50 Fire/SD scrapper
a wizard: 50 Rad/Sonic defender
The Nemesis Plothole:
50 StJ/Reg scrapper

And.... be sure to let us know when you're finished so we can hear what you got in-game...pls

So would other people hear normal sounds whilst we don't? Having many Tankers I would prefer different voices. It would be nice if the Devs did something about it.
