Stackable DoT?

[Xialian]

I can't really find any abilities, which will stack a damage over time effect. I mean, attacking once with an autoattack applies one stack and using a certain spell will add a stack, too. Maybe a stacking slow effect on it. Any pros out there, who can help?

You will need to make some trigger to stack them, on Warcraft III don't exist any spell that make it

 

[Xialian]

Yeah, but how?

I'm really bad about JASS, but following this tutorial you can make it eze.

This a nice tutorial, and explain everything right!

In what way is the DoT stacking? is it occurring through different spells or the same spell? Do you want it to be able to stack more than once from spell 1 and once from spell 2, once from both spells, or more than once from both spells?

If you want it in GUI, then it can be made either with hashtables or using indexing. Where each dot will run separately with their own index number. (there are some examples for both cases here in the forum)

I always thought the poison orb effect already does stack the damage Oo

Uhm. I don't understand how JASS or GUI work. Are you sure there's no other way, like an item, which already has the function, that I haven't heard about?

Incinerate stacks, but there is no way to track the stacks and it's very specific in it's behavior.

Maybe I'll try something else instead. Thanks for answering!
