Passive Ability Help

[King.Sky_Gem]

I'm trying to create a spell that.. when attacked, the unit has a chance to automatically do the mirror image without it actually being cast.
How can I do this?

I have the ability, and I put it in a 'hide book,' but it doesn't split at all..
What should the triggers look like?

 

[FhelZone]

It uses a trigger at least....
Create a dummy unit and make sure that it has an inventory...
Create an item and base it from wand of illussion, make sure to edit the base spell for the item too...

A unit is attacked

Level of Illusion for attaking unit is greater than 0

If random numbber from 1 - 100 is equal or less than 50
set temp_point = position of attacking unit
Unit create dummy at temp_point
add wand of illusion to last created unit
order last created unit to use item in inventory 1 to attacking unit
add 1 second expiration to last created unit
call RemoveLocation( udg_Temp_Point)

I guess it would go like that, good luck...

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Note that the effect for wand of illusion is different for that of mirror image.

If you want the unit to have a percentage to spawn units next to it when it gets hit, then a dummy holding wand of illusion is the way to go.

If you want the caster to sometimes cast mirror image (the split into 2 images and himself with the effect) when he gets attacked, then you should trigger it in such a way that the ability "mirror image" is given to him, you force him to cast mirror image and then the ability is removed.

I'm sorry to bring this topic back up again, but I do not fully understand how to make this spell work as I would like it to.

@ FhelZone
Thank you, but I didn't make myself clear, my fault. I do want this to be a mirror image cast in a passive state.

I have Mirror Image in a spell book, and I disabled the spell book to hide it.

How exactly do I post the triggers?

The best way is to create a dummy unit and gives it a spell based of Wand of Illusions with 0 manacost and cooldown. Then do something like this :
Note : Don't have WE

• Events
  • Unit - A Unit is Attacked
  • Conditions
  • Attacked Unit equal to Illusionist
  • Actions
  • If Then Else
    • If
      • Level of "Mirror Images (Passive) equal to 1
    • Then
      • Set Chance (Integer Vriable) = Random Number betwenn 1 and 100
      • If Then Else
        • If
          • Chance equal to or is less than 3 (3% Chance then if I'm right)
        • Then
          • Order <Dummy> (Better if preplaced dummy) to Cast <Wand of Illusion Custom> on attacked unit
        • Else
      • Else
  • If Then Else
    • If
      • Level of "Mirror Images (Passive) equal to 2
    • Then
      • Set Chance (Integer Vriable) = Random Number betwenn 1 and 100
      • If Then Else
        • If
          • Chance equal to or is less than 6 (6% Chance then if I'm right)
        • Then
          • Unit - Order <Dummy> (Better if preplaced dummy) to Cast <Wand of Illusion Custom> on attacked unit
        • Else
      • Else

That's a very simple trigger to shows you the basic, including how to implements levels

I don't want a dummy and wand of illusion, I'm trying to make it so the caster actually has a chance to do mirror image.

 

[farold]

That's actually the most simple solution
If you want it to cast Mirror Images, take in consideration that active spells in disabled spellbooks don't work

 

[King.Sky_Gem]

Aww, OK then.. well thank you farold
