Sometimes when I sneak up to one of those Rickling Raiders and get a critical hit, I die outright.
What the hell kind of mysterious powers do those critters have, that can return more than 525 worth of hitpoints? :confused:

I believe it's call reflection or something like that.

Reflection of physical damage?

I thought only magic could be reflected.

strange, I try to do what you did but I got nothing. can you do it again Hammerhead?

???
When I score a critical hit they die like any other creature. They sometimes stop during combat to cast some spell, but I never experienced any reflection. I am protected against magic and such, but not at 100%, so, since I've killed hundreds of them, the reflection should have kicked in some time or the other.

Can you reproduce that? maybe it's one of those occur once bugs which fix themselves after you reload.

It has happened maybe 7-8 times and when I reload and attack the same way, it happens again. If I stop sneaking and attack the "normal" way everything is OK.

I,ve used a daedric battleaxe?(2-handed) enchanted with firedamage, but now I've reached 100 in axe and have switched to sword. It hasn't happened with the sword yet, but I've only killed a few with it.

I guess it must be some kind of glitch since none of you have encountered this phenomenon.
