Mesmer greatsword sound

Please revert the main attack sound on a greatsword to before the 10/1 patch. Attacking anything sounds like a rattlesnake or shaking a maraca. It’s really annoying sounding.

It’s a simple mistake of the wrong script getting attached to the hit for this weapon. Mistakes happen, and fortunately the mistake was not a dire one. There will be a fix for that coming in soon. However, it will not sound the same as it used to. There actually have been many requests to change the way the Mesmer greatsword #1 skill sounds, and it was much more than a bit too loud (also the sound was the exact same for each and every hit with no variety—that’s not interesting).

No promises on when the fix will come in since it’s not for me to decide, but there will be a fix for it.
