Enchanting: Some Essences Rarer Than Others?

So... I've been playing for quite some time now. Enchanting from the start. I just started Cadwell's Silver, I still haven't come across a poison essence rune. I've come across all the rest at least twice. some of them like Oko and Makko turn up quite a lot.

I would expect that. People mostly want health and magicka based enchantments. But I don't understand why poison seems so rare - or am I just unlucky?

In fact, I wouldn't even use a poison enchantment. I just want the achievement for translating them all...

Please put the Eyevea/EarthForge wayshrines back on the map?

    I am Lvl 41 in Enchanting and I am my guild enchanter so I basically have everyone's runes come into my bank and I have literally only seen 1 or 2 poison runes come in. They would seem to be fairly rare. If you are looking for one, maybe posting on your guild website or ask some guildies to help you look.

    Cheers,

    Poison and Disease are the best Enchantments to put on a Weapon.

    And, yes, they are about 6 times rarer, based on the amount I have of those as compared to the other Essences I have.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    The only runes I am struggling to find are Ode Potency runes. I've found a few poison ones but not many.
