    As long as you can set the incoming volume of the call. People wearing headsets (like me) used to get blasted by calls in XI that would make you go deaf. I used calls a lot especially in my pulling macro just to make sure the party was paying attention but I used the softer-sounding calls because some of them would just ear-rape.

    I agree, some kind of volume normalization and/or volume control specifically for calls would be a nice improvement. I enjoy my headphones, I also enjoy keeping my hearing.

    I think <call14> was about the only one I could tolerate.

    Adding <call> would be a great idea though. few times I typically tab out between fights and typically just say I'll tab in when i hear the cs. failing that people just shout over mumble. but a call would certainly be usefull.
