The only way people say to do it is use barrage, sorry.

i have seen that hero shoots his damage multiple.... or naga in dota shoots with 3 arrows just having 30% damage

aehm thats not right.. (2nd poster) u can use triggers... and Barrage is only working %ual when u say damage "0" and max damage "0" so its 100% to ur damage.. the only real suxxing think is.. 0 targets are (all who in range of abillity) 1 target is 3 targets (lol?) and 2 target is 3 Targets (lol2?^^) the only think u cant made with Barrage is %ual thinks like 50% and u can make minimum of 3 Targets

Yes trigger, dont ask me for a trigger^^ i think someone can help u.. the other way search one of the 30 Thread about Multishot (i think its some of the often opened threads ever.. everyone wants multishot xD)

You seem to be confusing my wording, I never said the damage can't be changed, and there other ways to multi-shot. Yet, I was telling him the only OE way to do it.

In dota icetoad uses barrage and he then heals the targeted units by triggers so (it looks like) they are damaged 40%.

You have to be kidding me.
-> "heals the targeted units by triggers" - are you serious?
The base ability is Defend, and we all know (except you, I guess), that Defend lowers the damage by a percentage. Sheesh, healing through triggers, right... try detecting that sort of stuff for each target, will ya?

@ ludnica: You actually can detect the damage done to each target by using the Real variable: (Event response: Damage Dealt) and heal accordingly but that's quite inneficient.

Well the healing stuff is quite ineffective and also if you won't write 1000 lines of code your spells damage will be reduced and items that cast stuff on the target will get their damage reduced too (item chain lightning) . I asked on the DA forums and got a weird answer that the skill is based on Defend .

1. Make yourself an activable/deactivable skill based on defend (most values are standard here)

oO . Looked into Defend skill :
- Data -Attack Speed Factor : default 0
- Data -Chance to Deflect : set it to 0
- Data -Damage Dealt : set to desired value (default is 1.00)
- Data -Damage Taken : set from .5 to 1.00 (I think damage from ranged attack)
- Data -Deflect Damage Taken Piercing 0.00
- Data -Deflect Damage Taken Spells 1.00 (WTF??)
- Data -Magic Damage Reduction 1.00
- Data -Movement Speed Factor 1.00

2. Make a multishot ability .
3. Make a trigger that activates when you turn defend on and adds multishot to the hero (command string "defend") and remove multishot when you deactivate defend ("undefend" cmd string). You can use identical icons for multishot and defend .
