1)Copy the 3 dummies on your map.
2)Make 2 spells
The first one will be the hook and needs to be with target neither point or unit(breath of fire,channel etc.)I used breath of fire for my spell.
The second one needs to be based on human sorceress invisibility
3)Create a buff for the invisibility spell named Phantom Hook with description:This unit is under the effects of the phantom hook.It is hidden for 7 seconds.
4)Go to WE>File>preferences>Automatically create unknown variables while pasting trigger data
5)Copy the Phantom Hook category and paste it on your map.
You are done
Don`t forget to give credits to StaberFire for his phantom bolt!
Also check out my second variation of the phantom hook.
