Magatsu Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Cast when strikes thing with levitate , isnt that supposed to make yourself fly? I fought two dremora lords and was losing so i ran, and when i look back they come flying over the fields :lol: with a cliffracer behind them as backup... Is there possible to create weapons with cast when strikes on self, like give 10health. Or do i have to make an health absorb in such manner (its so expensive in enchantment points :( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marxist ßastard Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 In theory, it would work, but I've had an experience in which that resulted in the attacking creature getting its health restored (And the Restore Health enchantment was on Self, not Touch or Target -- I'm not that stupid).

kadude Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 LOLYes, the following spell casting types can be made: Cast on strike, cast when used and Constant effect(which needs a Grand Soul Gem with a soul in it...)<---I got this by catching an ascended sleeper in a grand gem, but it didn't work with a Winged Twilight?!...propably a bug.Here's some other casting options. It decides if you cast on your self or on target: Self(for restore health spells), on Touch(healing compannions, poison, etc..), on Target(lightning bolt, fire ball, etc...)

Malchik Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 it didn't work with a Winged Twilight?!...propably a bug. Except for a couple of unique souls only ascended sleepers and golden saints will give you the opportunity to get constant effect enchantments.

ShinJiOh Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 wait a minute cast when strikes, i have that on this sword my bosmer has, it is for frost. But it never strikes the enemy, i mean the sword does but the frost does not does this mean i have to equip like some kind of magic scroll?

DragoonFurey Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 Ive noticed that if you use a on touch castwhen strikes you have be practicaly kissing your opponent for the enchantment to trigger just like the cast on touch spells, some weapons notably Claymores/Dai-Katanas, and Spears/Halberds have a longer range the the cast on touch enchantment and so can do damage without the enchantment triggering.

proxis Posted December 16, 2003 Share Posted December 16, 2003 The best way get the damage done is to set the area effect to 3-5 feet on touch, that way if you use a longer weapon, the effect still strikes. and as far as enchantments not going the way the are supposed to, i have had that problem before. for example i wanted to make an Ebony spear that did 100pts shock damage and restore health 25 pts on me. i found out that the damn thing shocked AND healed my enemy, so i tried to enchant again. heres the trick: The first effect you list on the enchantment screen is going to be the primary effect. This is the effect you want to put fire/poison/shock etc in (for example cast when strikes:fire damge 100 pts in 3 ft on TOUCH). In the Second enchantment position (underneath your fire/frost etc. damage effect) is where you want to put restore health (say restore health 25 pts on SELF),or levitate on yourself, nighteye whatever, that way the enchantment knows that you want to kill them and heal your self. remember, damage to enemies first, then something you want for yourself next. works every time. so hear is the staff i made, feel free to make a replica for yourself ^_^ Shrine of the Hearts Dream (ebony staff)Thrust:5-7Chop:5-7Slash:?-?cast when strikes. (Grand Soul Gem, Golden Saint)Shock Damage 100 pts for 1 sec in 3 ft on touch <-------------primary effectRestore Health 25 pts on self<---------------secondary effect This little baby works just like a hearts dream....kills them, heals me. Good Luck and Pm me if you need some more enchanting help or ideas. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesaynothin Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 I have a question... How did you get such a nice enchantment? I don't think anything can hold that much enchantment. Unless your using a mod...? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveme4whoiam Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I've had weird experiences like Magatsu's. Like one time (at band camp- er, hang on a minute) i put a shield 20pts on slef effect on a daedric dai-katana, went over to a dremora and swatted him proper. Only problem was that the enchantment effected him rather than me, which was a touch scary. So, i now have a wasted dai-katana and a sore head. I'm glad that proxis managed to get his to work correctly, because that backfiring would not be pretty. Although i'd also like to know what mods (if any) he is running.
