Where you hear it

g_gongtroll01.ogg is an environmental gong used by troll-themed objects. It lives in the 'doodad' folder, the developers' term for interactive world objects. Gongs in WoW often mark an event about to begin, such as summoning a boss or starting an encounter. The sound is deep and resonant. It lasts about four seconds.

Use it as

Ringtone

Troll Gong runs 4.0 seconds, enough for one full play before most people pick up, and it loops back cleanly.

Notification sound

Over a text, a resonant four-second gong registers instantly and is hard to confuse with a stock phone chime.

Alarm

As an alarm, Troll Gong (mastered near -14.8 LUFS) rings on long enough to register even half asleep, and it loops without a gap until you are up.
