I am absolutely stumped on how to do this efficiently. I essentially want to be able to kill someone with any weapon or spell, then once they are dead, have a script run everytime they are hit with a certain weapon.

So:

Player kills NPC with axe
Player hits dead body with this particular weapon - SCRIPT RUNS

My first thought was enchantments but this doesn't work as enchantments dont hit dead bodys. The only way I can think of doing this is giving the player a spell to cast on a dead body that then gives it an onhit script that detects when its hit by the player, then I can run a getequipped check to make sure the player is using the right weapon. but do Onhit blocks even work when the actor is dead?

Any body know a way of doing this? Im sure it's even been done before...

Thanks,

not to toot my own horn but...

done

Mind telling us how?
