If you have Tower Ideas with nice spells, get in there!

[Nexor]

Does the orb work if the attack is not manually ordered?

No, it won't, you have to add a chainlightning to the tower then make a trigger:

Event: Unit is attacked
Cond: Attacking unit == your tower
Act: Order your tower to chain lightning attacked unit

Ok, lotta good ideas, i'm giving rep to ones that deserves it and see first post to see who's idea was added and other stuff cause i can't quote quotes and codes higher then 5 times, this post wont allow me!

Thanks for all the ideas, i only need a few more (like 4-5).

 

[Renendaru]

Name:Tri Tower
Model: Blank model with Fire, Ice, and Lightning orb art attached.
Ability: Has 10% chance to fire off one of 3 skills.
-Fire Nova - Shoots out a nova which deals 5*(Random number between 10 and 15) to each hit target.
-Chain Frost - A spell similiar to chain lightning, but instead uses frost nova on each target. Deals 150 to primary, reduces 25 per target within 150 range.
-Lightning Claw - An arc of lightning balls is shot out stunning for .5 seconds dealing 75-100 damage.

[Dinowc]

Name: Mocking tower
Model: Ancient protector
Description: The tower has low atk speed, but has high splash-damage and taunt - focuses all nearby units to attack him for x seconds, although he takes damage he also has hp regeneration
Effect: ???

 

[WolfieeifloW]

Name: Freezing Butcher
Model: Icy Treasure Box
Ability used for the skill: Blizzard / Water Elemental
Information about the skill: [Active]Throws down shards of ice upon opponents, while each shard has a X% chance to explode and cause enemies in a small radius to have their movement speed reduced by X%, and armor reduced by X.

THOUGHTS: For the explosion of shards, summon a water elemental and get rid of it right away [just using the cool looking splash].

Name: Poison Tower
Model: Sky-Fury Tower
Ability used for the skill: Shadow Strike / Acid Spray
Information about the skill:
[Active]Throws a deadly poison at an enemy, causing their movement speed to be slowed by X%. If the infected enemy dies from this poison, it releases another poison that infects the nearest ally of that enemy. [Can add a max of X infestations]
[Passive]Releases a poison cloud every X seconds, causing enemies to be blinded and move X% slower through the cloud, and take X damage per second while in the cloud, and X damage per second for X seconds after they get out of the cloud. If enemies die from this poison, they will release a mini-cloud, with X/X the effect of the original cloud.

THOUGHTS: Can be active or passive. Don't know if active is possible, probably is using dummy units. The passive, IMO, would be cool. If it's a little confusing, you can PM me or just quote it and I'll explain more.

Yeah.

Flame Trap

Name: Flame Trap
Model: Trap Side Fire (sideways)
Ability: Incinerate ~ Shoots a burst of flame (based off Carrion Swarm) that deals 4 damage to all enemies in its line of fire. Targeted units are also affected by Burns, which cause 2 damage per second for 30 seconds. Fires every 0.2 seconds.

Information: Since the Flame Trap will always face the same angle when built, this tower must be placed strategically, where units will walk down it in a line. Also, when you have it casting the spells, play its stand animation, and play its death animation after a couple of seconds of not casting. Add 5 instances of the Incinerate spell to the tower if it can't cast fast enough, and make sure to cast at the same point every time, and not at the units.

Buffs: Burn (on enemies)

Dunno if you'll be able to implement this into your particular TD, but it's fun to have a trap-like tower.

Presence of Evil ~ Passive aura that drains 1% of life to units in a 400 AoE.
