-Armor Ability Which Stack

[SwedishChef]

Okey I need an ability which gives targeted unit -armor and also stacks with previous casts. For example: A hero has 2 armor, he is targeted by spell and gets 1 armor, then he is targeted again and gains 0 armor.

You can use the item ability, armor bonus, set it to negative, and add it to a disabled spellbook.

Hm okey but why add it to a disabled spellbook?

 

[Ayanami]

No need to add it to a disabled spell book. "Item - Armor Bonus" is already invisible, so you can't see the skill icon.

Okey but how do I change the duration on it then? Also I just need a fast answer on which ability which gives +damage which isn't in percent.

E: And that didn't stack...I created an ability based of that which gives -2 armor. When I add it on more times it still give same armor (-2).

For +damage, use the item ability 'Damage Bonus'. Same with that, no icon.

I want to create an ability which checks how many there is within the targeted area then add +2 damage to caster for every unit.

Make an ability based off of Damage Bonus with multiple levels, then make a trigger to count the number of units within the area when the ability is used, and adjust the level of the ability to the number of units.

Hm well yes this I also was going to do first but then for some reason I didn't think I could have more that 1 working level on item abilities. Well it works for both so thanks. But how do I make it so it only lasts for lets say 10 seconds?

E: Hm, use timers maybe dumbass.

 

[SwedishChef]

Actually I do have some problems on how to remove it anyway...

 

[Shura]

Do something like this:

• trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Damage Bonus to (Triggering unit)
    • Wait 10.00 seconds
    • Unit - Remove Damage Bonus from (Triggering unit)

    • Unit - Remove Damage Bonus from (Triggering unit)

This, of course, couldn't be used more then once at the same time.

 

[Shura]

But it can, triggering unit will always refer to the original unit that triggered the event, even after a wait and if the trigger has run multiple times.

Hah yesterday was such a slow day for me. I realised that I could use triggering unit today when I woke up xD. Thanks anyway.
