    cuz as hard as it is to believe all characters in ESO use telepathic communication...and only the small minds of Tamriel use their orifices to communicate(NPC)...yeah this sounds far better than the "we haven't learned how to speak so instead we are using caveman/troglodyte sounds to express our feelings"

    Elemental weapon sound is more annoying. They should change it.

    LOL once I made a character named "Random Nightblade Noises" because of how triggering the sound of their abilities are :s I deleted that character ages ago, NB isn't my style of play. Someone take that name if it hasn't been taken again :D

    If it's a vocal sound, then you chose a really bad voice for your character and it has nothing to do with NB. :P

    If It's not, then I have no idea what sound you're talking about.

    Huh. I have a CP 720 NB, and I never noticed a noise from her, and certainly not anything I would mistake for a pig. I'll have to play her with headset on tomorrow and see if I can hear it.

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    I never heard my redblade go oink oink or snort snort.

    All I hear are the cries and agony of my victims when I use my skill on them.

    There is a redguard voice for males that constantly sounds like a sea lion honk-honking, likely during heavy attacks. That's probably what you are talking about, and not the fact that they are NBs. My NBs never do any such noise.

    I've never heard my nightblades make a snort/honk noise. Maybe it's the voice you chose.

    I had a templar that would squawk frequently when she did jabs. I had to do an appearance change to change her voice

    Ok, maybe it's the voice. Regardless, whatever it is, it NEEDS to be changed - it's just plain STUPID. Whomever 1) came up with it, and 2) said "yes, let's use it" should be FIRED!

    Or maybe you should have selected your character's voice with a little more care?

    It is the STUPIDEST sound I have *ever* heard in an RPG, and bloody annoying all all he**! Please patch it and change it!

    5 years in game have met twice only what you describe. Is not NB related, but is Redguard specific voice setting, and if remember correctly female Redguard voice setting.

    And I do agree with @DeathStalker_X is annoying at best and I do wonder how the players owning this characters don't get frustrated all this time.

    Also I am annoyed of my Templar healer, every time casts combat prayer or wall of elements you can hear him shouting (arrrghhh) like he is doing it with great effort gathering all his strength.
    And this is the voice pack selected, as it was doing it before the racial change as Altmer, and after as Khajiit. Though the voice is different ofc, pack ID remained the same.

    None of the other 3 Templars, or other class like NB, Sorc, DK, Warden, are shouting, neither is racial based as all are Khajiit.
    Is specific voice ID

    Given that there is specific Voice ID (Pack) that does this noise, and there is no indication which one is, enlighten us o! great wise Lord Tareq. Which Voice ID selections we should avoid? (yes is sarcasm).

    Khajiit does not :)
    Race change is an critical option,
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Only sound that bothers me from my Nightblade are the cries of pain when she falls two feet while sneaking around a room filled with hostiles. Good thing they are all stone deaf.

    I think it's part of the whole "I'm a NightBlade and I kill without letting you know I'm there" thing.

    "What was that?!? Who's there?!? Show yourself!!!"

    "Snort, oink, snort."

    "Oh, it's just my cute little pig. Here, piggy piggy piggy! Here GAHK!" (Dies in surprise in a spray of blood.)
    I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!
