    No, it sounds just like it would if you were doing it irl. A trill of the harp just wouldn't have the right effect.

    Turn the volume down/off when "scratching" a rune?

    I remember that bug. It annoyed me a lot, specially because I was levelling enchanting and kept turning around to try to learn the spawn place for the runes (which were nowhere in sight).

    If they ever do replace it, I would suggest the "Idiot Savant" audio form the Luck branch of the SPECIAL perks in Fallout 4.

    Definitely a pleasant sound if I recall!

    Also please remove the high pitch whine from the ancestor moth pet. It sounds like an old dying monitor after it turns off, that borderline dog whistle...eugh

    I know this might sound dumb but I honestly avoid runes because I can't stand that sound. It is awful like nails on a chalk board. I thought I was the only one lol

    its like epilepsy, some people are allergic to these sorts of sounds. Hopefully the devs will add something pleasant

    The game is so good, but this problem sort of keeps me away from totally loving it.

    But...but I love it!

    It's a very satisfying scratch sound. (I hate the nails-on-blackboard noise too, but this one is different.)

    I was wondering why people don't seem to harvest runes as eagerly...guess I know the reason now. It all makes sense, survive the fittest. I will thrive as one of the few rune harvesters of Tamriel.

    I don't like it but fortunately I play with the sound quite low (when I have it on at all) so it doesn't bother me too much.

    It was really annoying when it was bugged and you could hear it across the whole map.

    On PC this might be something that could be fixed with an addon. There's already addons to silence other things, the most extensive is probably BankerShutUp which mutes all bankers, adds a mute button to all other NPC dialogue boxes and lets you mute crafting station effects.
