I recently started using Quarry on one of my characters.
When the power activates, a yellow starburst glow surrounds your character, and the entire time the buff is active (which is at all times while you are in combat) a HORRIBLE ringing/humming noise plays.
It's very loud, very obnoxious, and has actually caused me to stop using the power. I can't retcon out of it, so I switched to a build where it's simply not slotted.
The real bummer is it's a great power for my character, but the audio effect associated with it is so annoying I simply can't play with it on.
The visual effect that surrounds your character is very obvious; there really isn't any need for a loud audio event to play as well. It would be bad if it only lasted a second or two, but it continues to drone on the ENTIRE TIME you are fighting. It's actually as loud as the gunfire and combat sounds.
PLEASE remove it, or reduce the volume of it by 75% or something. After about an hour of playing and dealing with it this evening, my head was actually hurting.
It probably sounds like I'm exaggerating here, but check it out yourself. It's actually that bad.
