✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Does exactly what it says—no more annoying combat grunts.
- Lightweight and simple, won't clutter your load order.
- Community-tested with 158 endorsements despite being ancient.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2008—may not be compatible with newer Oblivion versions or mods that alter sounds.
- Only affects the player, not NPCs, so enemies will still groan.
For Oblivion players who find the player character's combat vocalizations grating and want a quick fix. Skip if you're fine with the default sounds or want a more comprehensive sound overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple file replacement, just drop the files into your Oblivion Data folder and enable the mod in your launcher.

- Test in combat to confirm the sounds are gone—if not, check that the mod is loaded after any sound-altering mods.
