Reducing combat/spellcasting grunting volume

I'm wondering if it would be possible to reduce the volume or frequency of the exertion noises of the player character when attacking or spellcasting. The sorceress character is especially loud when casting spells like firebolt. Currently the only way to turn this volume off is to disable sound effects entirely, which I certainly don't want to do. A toggle for this feature would be amazing!

I don't know why this suggestion isn't more popular.

In POE1 I avoided some builds because of the irritating grunting.

Looks like there's no way I'm going to play a sorc in POE2 since ever cast is ya...ugh...yaa...woft...yey...blah. Its like she's doing kung-fu with spells.

This needs to be pinned as the absolute highest priority, and i’m not even kidding.

Who the heck thought it would be a good idea for my merc to suddenly have a jarring audio line of “MORON” ?

No seriously that stupid screaming of “moron” or “fire in the hole” is so out of place, and what takes the cake was in the first time i encountered Rudja? The flamethrower, nade throwing act boss? Like WHAT THE HELL IS WITH HER DYING AUDIO QUEUE?!?!?!


I literally had to slam on my mute button, then after that i turned off POE master sound completely, and i always have other stream, youtube or music running instead. I don’t know or care how poe2 sounds past that boss, and i’m now lv92.

I made a Merc and used the normal Mace Swing Dual Wield, it was like "uh,äh,oh,ough,uffagh,augh" repeating in seconds...

Also that screamin "Reload" while anything other is quite. Dafuqq?

I also am really tired of hearing my Demon Witch grunt at every click and dash.

It's EA bro. Post it in POE2 Feedback maybe.
