I can't find any difference in their function. They both modify confidence and aside from the conditions on the magic effects they seem to be technically the same.  --- [[User:Fowl|Fowl]] 18:18, 22 February 2012 (EST)

== MagicEffect Fields - Papyrus Scripts ==
Is anyone able to clarify "Any Papyrus Scripts applied to or by the MagicEffect."? --Is the script applied to the target object or to the the MagicEffect itself? In that case, what does the "self" refer to? Does the script execute on hit? I am still trying to understand the Papyrus scripting language.
Can anyone suggest a way to apply a magic effect to any object in the game world? The ActiveMagicEffect script only seems to have a function to return the target of type Actor. I am wondering if there is a way to use the Self to get a reference to any object targeted by the spell, eg. a barrel. In Oblivion I seem to remember I could just make a SpellEffect that went
begin ScriptEffectStart
    set spellTarget to getSelf
    spellTarget.doSomething
end
So I am trying to figure out how to do this for Skyrim. I don't really know which Event to use either.
I would appreciate any help!
