I used to think (build op, pls nerf) like you, but then I took a nerf to the knee.
Apparently, the quips the characters make during critical hits are playing on the wrong flag. A norn should be saying “Hah! Extra damage” when he deals the critical hit, not when he receives it.
Same for other races.
Unless my client is bugged?
Is this a thing?
It’s not just you. My humans say “Hurts, doesn’t it” when they get hit on occasion, without them attacking anything; the mob hitting them is what triggers it. Weirdness.

It’s been bugged (and reported) since 2012.
Are you sure your characters aren’t getting boons to cause the VO? As these quotes sound like what characters say when they get Fury and/or Retaliation.

The voice of the player character is heard saying those lines when the PC is struck by a critical hit. The wiki used to include a line commenting on the anomaly, but it was removed by an anonymous editor, without comment.
As far as I can tell, this bug has existed for years. While certainly not game-breaking, it is annoying. I would rather my character say nothing than constantly say things that are so incongruous.
