The scripts do not run on the weapon, they run on the thing that the weapon '''hits'''. Think about it - does a weapon enchanted with Damage Weapon break itself? No, it breaks ''the target's'' weapon. Enchanted weapons cause the effect they're enchanted with to be transferred to the target - no matter what the effect is. In the case of Scripted Effect, it causes the script to run on the target. The GetSelf would return the target's reference. | :::::[[User:DragoonWraith|<font face="Oblivion,Daedric Runes" size=3>D</font>ragoon <font face="Oblivion,Daedric" size=3>W</font>raith]] [[User_talk:DragoonWraith|<font face="Oblivion,Daedric" size=2>TALK</font>]] 15:25, 22 July 2006 (EDT): You misunderstand how scripted enchantments work (as do many people, much to my confusion).

-- [[User:Gamall|Gamall]] 15:29, 22 July 2006 (EDT) No no no, I said a "scripted spell effect", no "a script on the weapon". As far as I know, you can't do that from the weapon. And yes, used like that, GetSelf ''will'' yield ref to the weapon... | |||
To avoid that, create a spell that reads like that | |||
<pre> | |||
scn blahScript | |||
ref Target | |||
Begin ScriptEffectStart | |||
set Target to GetSelf | |||
; do whatever you want with your target ref | |||
End | |||
</pre> | |||
and enchant your weapon with it. It will run on any actor your weapon hits. Oh, and make sure to tick the "disallow Spell Reflect/Absorb" and "Script Effect Always Applies" to avoid unpleasant surprises... | |||
