Isn't that was macros are for? (NOTE: I'm being sarcastic)

I don't se how it's weird that casters don't have this? It's less a "yelling in combat" thing and more a "bard's whole schtick is singing and playing music and supporting their allies with voice and instrument on the battlefield."

We aren't just shouting at the wind because we feel like it, it's tied to what bards *do.* I mean if it'd make sense to me anyone else to have a "battle voice," I feel like it'd probably be tanks who lead the charge into battle?

I'd much rather see a *different* group buff for casters. ...other than embolden. I mean... word of power maybe? Or something.

Lol wait... reading again, I guess you mean actual character voice lines? Thought you literally meant battle voice, whoops xD

I guess my answer is kiiinda similar anyway, though - I dunno if I'd be shouting "HUAHHH!! HAHH!!!" every time I cast a spell, but I dunno, maybe. I did really love how Aion actually had vocal incantations with a lot of spell casts, even if it did get a little annoying hearing "BIIINN GAHERAAA!!" or whatever TF it was every 2 seconds after a while.

Still don't think it's weird they don't have it, but not really opposed to it being changed either.

This, or a toggle for character voice effects, either way. I don't enjoy listening to my healer grunt forcefully like some sort of heavyweight champ every single time she casts a spell.


(If this is a specific ability called Battle Voice, I'll see myself out. Seems unclear from responses lol.)
