In some games, certain buffs occur automatically once the user reaches critical HP levels. This Tips & Tricks video will show you how to apply a DEF buff on your battlers when their HP drops to under 25%!

You can get the copy/paste code here: 

Place this inside of your state’s notebox. Change the values in red to fit your game:

<Custom Battle Effect>
// Reset Critical Protect flag each battle.
user._criticalProtect = false;
</Custom Battle Effect>

<Custom Victory Effect>
// Reset Critical Protect flag each battle.
user._criticalProtect = false;
</Custom Victory Effect>

<Custom Escape Effect>
// Reset Critical Protect flag each battle.
user._criticalProtect = false;
</Custom Escape Effect>

<Custom Defeat Effect>
// Reset Critical Protect flag each battle.
user._criticalProtect = false;
</Custom Defeat Effect>

<Custom Respond Effect>
// This is the HP Rate the target has to be under to activate Critical Protect.
var crisis = 0.25;
// Check if the player is in battle, the target is alive, and the HP rate is under the right amount.
if ($gameParty.inBattle() && target.isAlive() && target.hpRate() <= crisis && !target._criticalProtect) {
  // Set the critical protect flag to true.
  target._criticalProtect = true;
  // The number of turns the buff will last.
  var turns = 5;
  // Adds DEF (ID: 3) buff to target.
  target.addBuff(3, turns);
  // Play an animation to indicate it activated.
  target.startAnimation(53);
}
</Custom Respond Effect>

Happy protecting!
