I'm the type of player who likes to do both PvP and PvE. I love the sounds of Guild Wars and hearing all of the different skills ripping monsters to shreds, but when PvP time comes around, you have to turn down your volume to almost nothing so you'll be able to hear your teammates on Ventrilo.

I switch back and forth from PvP and PvE a lot so I'm constantly having to slide all the volumes up, then slide all the volumes down, then slide them up... It would be so helpful and practical if there was a master volume slider so I could turn up/down all of the volume at once instead of trying to rediscover the perfect balance of sounds on the sliders ever time I go to PvE.

It's not too much to ask is it? :P

How about volume level templates? It's like with some First Person Shooters where you can save your keyboard layouts, and like our Skill templates.

Having a master volume could go two ways. 1) ANet does what they graphical options follow with the master graphical slider; your perfect volume levels would be ruined either way. 2) It could just override everything and decrease the current overall volume level after your current sliders have changed it, thus retaining your settings.

I'm not quite sure which method you're going for, the latter being more useful than the former, but a template would be the most useful, in my opinion. I'm kind of a perfectionist with volume levels, so if I accidently click and drag one I'll spend 5-10 minutes re-doing the entire thing. >_> Would be nice to have "Default" not be universal, if you get my drift.

Yesh, PLEASE. And a mute checkbox next to each bar!

It's a pain to tune sound when you have various programs.

MSN new conversation sounds sound to high, then music too loud then... all would be solved with a master in GW.
