Kinetic Blast impact Sound Bug

This is honestly NOT an improvement. I think it is more of a bug so I post it here.


Kinetic Blast now plays a harsh, ear-hurting, drum like sound (on top of the original one) with every hit from projectile or explosion to a mob, making the skill extremely unpleasant to use over a longer period of play time. Please revert the change.

This sound used to only play when I hit mobs like water elementals. It was a feature added in a Patch before 2.3 where you would here different sound when you hit certain mobs like water elementals, I can't find how it was worded but it worked fine.

Now it does it on every mob. Please fix.

They fixed this issue with LA, Sunder and SRS. I'm surprised it is still going with KB.

I don't know exactly, but some time before 2.3.1 because they mentioned they had fixed it in the 2.3.1 patch notes. It was terrible before that.
