Burning skill

[khll1993]

I'm trying to make a skill that when a unit (melee) attacks the hero with the burn skill, the attacking unit is burned. Is there a warcraft skill I can use for this?

 

[Corleone]

You could try to make a skill based on Thorns Aura. Should be pretty easy.

 

[Skippy]

Or Spiked Carapace.

 

[Wummi]

Spiked Carapace is better than thorns aura. Then attach a special burning effect to the attacking unit.

what if I don't want just the burning animation? what if I want the attacking unit to actually get burned, as in take burn damage over time. How do I do that?

 

[roaaaarrrr]

Then you would probably have do do damage detection, and if the unit was damaged by the spiked carapace, trigger burn damage.

 

[khll1993]

is there a trigger like that?

 

[Wratox1]

or just make a periodic trigger that picks every unit with the burn buff and damage them

 

[Axe.killer]

Create special effect - burn on attacking unit. [ has die animation or itll last forever]
Unit change health.

End. Let me know if that works.
