    Hello! I think that the glass breaking sound effects of the Holy Blast should be changed.

    The main I'm writing this suggestion is because almost every other class doesn't have that level of audio peak in their spells.

    When using the Holy Blast, as a Knight you don't have a lot of range, you're trying to space your spells. Sometimes, you're walking forward when using the spell. If this happens, and you walk into your own spell, you can get find yourself in the center of the second blast of the spell. There, the glass breaking sound effect is proportionally higher than the Warrior's. This is supposed to be a DLC Class, and yet it deters from Knight being used. One of my spells is basically an audio flash-bang. The only positive side of this is that you could possibly grief other players in PVP by Holy Blasting them, which would just cause more pain.

    It's just the Knight. I really enjoy playing as a Knight, but every time I want to play as them, I have to turn the game audio, which is limiting. It's unfortunate, because Wynncraft already has such excellent, creative noises and environments. It feels possible that this one spell could be tweaked a little bit.

    The spell could either:
    1) have the sound replaced (breaking glass sound -> sand breaking sound? or concrete powder breaking sound? or something lighter).
    2) lower the audio levels of the glass breaking sound. This would mean going into the resource pack files and lowering it by about half, or to, ideally, match the audio levels of the Warrior. While I/anyone could do this ourselves, the problem is, as a player, I need to extra work to not have my ears hurt.

    This will help me and the many other players who are deterred from playing a class that we payed for. Maybe someone even payed JUST to play the Knight class, but they don't because of how loud the sound is.

    This hasn't been suggested before, and while this isn't gamebreaking, Wynncraft is an amazing server with so much effort and care put into everything to be an incredibly unique experience. I hope this is changed.

    Since it's called ''Holy blast'' I guess it could be cool if the sound effect was changed to a guardian noise or something
