Triggered Ability To Raise Strength

[I_RULE_YOU]

I'm having a rather embarrising problem which I can't seem to solve. I'm making an ability based off Spiked Carapace which I want to raise the defense and strength of the hero. So I made a seperate ability based off Item Strength Bonus, and triggered it to be added to the hero via the way below:

• Frozen Fortitude
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Learns a skill
  • Conditions
    • (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Frozen Fortitude
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Frozen Fortitude Strength to (Triggering unit)
    • Unit - Set level of Frozen Fortitude Strength for (Triggering unit) to (Level of Frozen Fortitude for (Triggering unit))

The Frozen Fortitude Strength is the Item ability, it has 7 levels and adds +5 for each level. Yes, I'm sure I entered the Object data fields correctly. Problem is, when I learn the skill, it only adds +5 Strength, no matter how high the level is. I also tried another trigger, which had the same result:

• Frozen Fortitude
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Learns a skill
  • Conditions
    • (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Frozen Fortitude
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Level of Frozen Fortitude for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Add Frozen Fortitude Strength to (Triggering unit)
      • Else - Actions
        • Unit - Set level of Frozen Fortitude Strength for (Triggering unit) to (Level of Frozen Fortitude for (Triggering unit))

I really don't know why this isn't working as I've made a myriad of similar ability adding triggers like this which have worked perfectly. + rep for help.

learns a skill is only when it first learns it, not levels it, what you gotta do is set a periodic trigger that gets the level of your ability and sets the other one to the same level, and when the ability is level 3 you can destroy the trigger to prevent lag

It's learning the skill not putting points into it

 

[I_RULE_YOU]

I'm 99% certain your both mistaken, I have other spells which do this, its not a unit learns an ability, it's a unit Learns a Skill, which can be a skill point also. My other working triggers support this.

 

[YourFace]

try putting a periodic trigger that checks for the level
maybe that can help

also save the level to an integer variable, maybe that can help

 

[I_RULE_YOU]

...........yes but I know that isn't necessary, I have other triggers working using the same methods........

 

[Charapanga]

do you have any other spells based of Spiked?

 

[I_RULE_YOU]

Yes 2 other heroes have Spiked Carapace.

well... i tryed this one:

lol
    Events
        Unit - A unit Learns a skill
    Conditions
        (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Devotion Aura
    Actions
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                (Level of Devotion Aura for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Add Attribute Bonus to (Triggering unit)
            Else - Actions
                Unit - Set level of Attribute Bonus for (Triggering unit) to (Level of Devotion Aura for (Triggering unit))

where i based the bonus on attribute bonus, and it worked as i it should.. (i attached map)

another way around could be simply add the strength like this: (that is af you dont care if the bonus is displayed or not.)

lol Copy
    Events
        Unit - A unit Learns a skill
    Conditions
        (Learned Hero Skill) Equal to Devotion Aura
    Actions
        Hero - Modify Strength of (Triggering unit): Add 5

Hope it helps

Add Attribute bonus, hide icon.

 

[D.V.D]

Why not just use this action?

Hero - Modify Strength of (Triggering unit): Add 5

It works good.
