Adding Armor Through Triggers

[ZeroThirteen]

Is there any way to add armor to a unit in GUI? If so, please let me know, because I can't seem to find it.

You could make a spellbook containing an devotion aura, then add the spellbook to the unit and disable it.

Can't you do it with an upgrade?

 

[Builder Bob]

You can give the unit one of the Item Armor Bonus abilities.

Do I need to make a custom version of Devotion Aura for it to work? Why not just include an Item - Armor Bonus ability?

And how exactly do I disable it?

EDIT: Beat to it.

 

[Squishy]

Ya, Item Armor Bonus will work too. To disable it, remove the spellbook.

 

[ZeroThirteen]

How do I remove the spellbook itself?

 

[Builder Bob]

No spell book is needed. Add Item Armor Bonus to activate. Remove Item Armor Bonus to deactivate.

If you use a spell book anyway, just add and remove the spell book as you would a normal ability

I believe it's this:

Melee Initialization
    Events
        Map initialization
    Conditions
    Actions
        Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                [B]Player - Disable Spell Book for (Picked player)[/B]

This disables the Spell Book but NOT the contents in the Spell Book. And yeah, no point using Spell Book since Item Armor Bonus doesn't have icon anyway. Just use it as it is as mentioned.
