Hello, I just got my Eclypse T6 cruiser mastery to lvl 5 and got the pretty amazing Battle Ready ship trait. It feels like its working but it makes this high plinking sound every single second! On top of making this weird white box GFX.
Cryptic! If you MUST keep the sound can you at least lower the volume and above all else make so it only sounds once when it activates?
All passive traits and specializations should not have sounds. In addition there should be graphical options to turn off all buff and debuff animations.
I play STO 99% of the time muted. Because of things like that, but also numerous other reasons. This game needs a few talented audio-fx artists.

Yeah, both the visuals and the sound of it is terrible. If it wouldn't be as useful as it is I'd have unslotted it after the first time it activated. A change (as long as it dosen't get even worse) would be welcomed.
Could be worse.. at least STO hasn't reached the level of Neverwinter's 'noise pollution'.. yet. I remember breathing a sigh of relief every time I closed that game..
To be honest, the sound of the Async warp 'bubble' they added a while back bothers me far more than Battle Ready. The Kazon's retro phasers are climbing that list though.. a dozen ships all BFAWing that high pitched sound really does hurt(and drown out all other audio).

Just don't blow it like this.
