[LE] Make critical hits trigger voice lines

[AwesomeRomchik]

I've got a follower with a custom perk: "Has a 15% chance to deal 300% damage" aka critical strike.

 

My question is: is there a way to make a follower say a specific voice line when a critical hit lands on a target?

 

So far I've found GetLastHitCritical condition, but I am unsure where to put it: should it go into the Perk conditions or the follower Combat dialogue tab? Also who to run it on: the subject, the target or the combat target?

 

I have only found one thread on Nexus Forums where a user tried to make something similar, but that condition seemed to be too much trouble. And the official CK page has very little information on that condition.

I think it should go into combat tab, running on the subject. If you got more lines there I think is a good idea to add the same condition to all of them, but set it to '0'. That way you'll make sure the line you want to hear, is the one that will be said after a critical.

Okay I'll give it a try, thank you!

I eventually figured it out, in case if someone finds it helpful.

 

GetLastHitCritical doesn't seem to work for followers to track their combat targets being hit with crtis (or perhaps it was mistake on my end). However, there is a workaround: you can make a crit perk for your follower, then create a magic effect that lasts for, say, a second and applies the perk you created (in my case the effect was a crit with swords), and finally enchant a weapon with that magic effect. You can then have the voicelines check whether the follower's target HasMagicEffect which will trigger that specific voiceline.
