Spell Evasion

[Some1Sneakin]

I bet everyone have heard about the ability "Evasion" (boring spell )
Well now i wonder how to make the ability Evasion to "evade" spells istead of normal attacks? Any idea? Thx!

take magic defence from spelbreaker.

Spell specific evasion is not possible.

magic defense from spellbreaker? waht's that? isn't he magic immun?

whatever. At least im SURE it's possible. Vile1 (Age of myths) did it.

It is possible using the system of calculating unit damage done and taken. (This includes damage from spells.) Give it a % to set the damage taken to 0 and put a floating text saying "Miss" or whatever. However this evasion will count for spells and melee.

It is not possible with regular spells, you have to trigger your own spell system, not worth it unless you know what you're doing.

that works like the footmans defend. except it makes them magic immune.
Its not on spellbreakers anymore because they're immune anyway. (its still in the abilities)

THATS VERY SIMPLE.

Make a trigger that will start when any hero cast a targeted spell and check that target has your skill, then use If random number between 1 and 100 is equal or less to for exapmle 10 add that item ability that blocks spell to that unit then remove it from it after few moments.

What if the spell is an instant spell which does not have any missle ?

HA!
I would have damaged you before you could add your ability to your unit.

it doesnt matter. whether it is Sleep or Death Coil. it can block them just like the spell amulet.

Between this two events is a time to add abilty:
Begining of Casting of Ability
------------------------<----- There I'll add ability. Spell won't resolve cuz it will be blocked. Each unit needs to end his Spell animation before cast so i have some time to do that
Resolve of Ability Effect

Btw. Triggers are always faster that spells if they have no "Wait" actions inside. I can do Millions of things before your hero casts a spell Even kill him.

This would not however, work for area of effect spells.

If the unit with magic evasion was the target, the spell would not even be cast, but is the unit was not the target, he would have no way to avoid it.

My thinking is this: an area of effect spell should not be evadable, so make the condition, spell is not equal to this, not equal to this, etc. where those spells would be the area of effect spells. This way, if the unit being targeted by a aoe spell has spell evasion, it still doesn't do anything
