Would you like a damage threshold slider for your character?

Is anyone tired of having your character scream at the slightest hang nail? Wouldn't it be nice if you could set a damage threshold before you character would scream in agony? I would prefer my character to scream when the health is lower than 75%. A seasoned warrior would be impervious to a minor wound correct?

Now I know the reason ZOS did this was to let us know that our character is taking damage, but that’s what the health bar is for.

    I usually only hear my character scream when he jumps from too high a cliff or a heavy attack. Must be all the other noise going on in a battle that masks this.

    I would like them to throw out the grunt from a heavy attack, it always sounds so lame when I cue one up only to release it after the mob is dead.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    It's how you say Threshold when you have peanut butter in your mouth.

    I think it's what happens when someone or some thing called Shresh holds you in its grasp.

    I haven't actually heard my character scream outside of one of those crazy or infinite falls and heavy attacks. I would actually want to hear my character from time to time.

    Yes, but only if the slider scales upwards as well. I want to roleplay a true scaredy cat; a cowardly lion templar tank that screams with fright at the sight of a mere bug and has to take a shot of courage (skooma) before every fight.

    That really would get old fast, wouldn't it? Okay, yeah, I guess my answer should have been don't care.

    Seems to me like the game has a lot more pressing issues atm. I would rather see development spent on storage, latency, auction house, ui, and bugs. Just my opinion.

    I agree, but I just get tired of hearing my character scream over the tiniest cuts and bruises. Something like this should be simple as a slider in the audio settings.

    It's when you get too much ESO and not enough sleep. I fixed the typo.

    Some of my characters moan and sceam and yell like a $2 - err - entertainer at a schriners convention.

    I really wonder what the people upstairs must think. Oooh - eeek - ohhhh - gack - shreak - etc

    Listening to my female dunmer sork go 'GACK' every 3 seconds while I use lighning form (what ever it is called) to run though pve zones is mildly disgusting.
