 If you play as drell adept and sometimes you get kicked from a game for (apparently) no reason, it is probably cos of the soul-shattering, brain-damaging, all-maddening sound that your REAVE skill does. I have kicked people for this and it TRULY pains me to do it for such a reason. I know the person can be very valuable to the team and yet kicking that person because he wants to play drell adept pains me less than hearing the Reave sound for 20 minutes. Yes, you hear this sound during 90-99% of the game/map. I am aware that some of you don't know which sound I mean, as I needed a whole week to figure out what makes that sound. At first I thought that, since I was playing mostly as nova vanguard at the time, my char started hearing that sound cos his brains got scrambled from all the novas and biotic charging being done. Eventually, when I eliminated all other possibilites I figured out that Reave does that god-awful sound and I tried it with my drell adept just to make sure. 

I made this thread for 2 reasons:
1)To sincerely apologize to the drell adepts that me and my friends have kicked from our games. I know the drell adept fans will feel bad reading this topic. Sorry guys, it is nothing personal, but that sound really drives us NUTS.

2)To ask BioWare to consider changing that sound. Dear devs, we know that not all sounds are supposed to be pleasant in this game. Unpleasant sounds do make us enjoy the game more (like the Banshee sound), but not when you hear them for 20 minutes (or more) non stop. Can't you at least make Reave do that sound only for 1-2 seconds, when the character uses it? Please, I really don't want to kick people from my games just cos their character's sounds drive me crazy :S

If you still don't know which sound I mean, you can hear it here (starting at 0:40):

The glitch with reave is being fixed in the next patch.

Could always turn the dialog volume up and the sound effects volume down. That'd allow you to hear teammates and announcements, while making Reave less of an issue.

Only downside is when will this patch actually hit?

Summer?

The sound isn't even that annoying. People are such babies. Just get a vanguard to set off biotic explosions and the grunts should drown the sound out.

I'd guess in a few weeks, but again, guesswork.

Then it merely sounds like somebody overlaid the sound from the 2010 world cup over hardcore pr0ns.

Have they not already fixed it? I played a game with my drell adept last night and for the first time the reave noise was not there. When the reave wore off the sound went with it.

I primarily play a drell adept, (I'm sorry, really, I am...but they're so amazing) and I usually have the sound on my tv as low as I possibly can, and I have music going.

On behalf of my lizardy brothers and sisters, we're sorry.

Oh, I'm not sure if it actually helps, but i usually spam pull after a round, sometimes it stops the reave noise. OR it could just be a coincedence.

I really hope they  fix it. I didn't know it was a glitch but it makes sense. It would actually be a cool sound if you hear it only for a second when you use reave.

This.

Even the Quarian Engineer flame turrets sound-loop glitch is more annoying.

I played as a Drell Adept earlier today, with 2 more & an asari vanguard for good measure.

Good points - we could destroy a banshee in about 2 seconds with reave reave reave grenade grenade grenade.

Bad points - I may never regain my hearing

It was annoying at first, but now it's kind of soothing.

Oh, if Bioware could be on valves development cycles, it would be glorious!
I don't care that I would have to wait another 2-3 years for Mass Effect 3, the game would have been so vast and amazing!

Before they patch it, how can I change the reave sound to a murloc or priest from Age of Empires?

Reave is the best sound ever closely followed by the sound of 3/4 banshees screaming even when they die they scream =D

You Reave haters need to learn how to tune things out. I don't even notice it anymore.
