Base Summoning Spells

[Vegavak]

I have no problem coming up with ideas, but finding the tools I need to execute is getting tiresome.

Are there any other spells besides feral spirit that I can use for a limited summon? I have multiple summons on a character, and I want to limit them without them requiring anything besides mana to cast.

So far I can't find anything else.

I could just trigger it, but I wanted to see if there was anything hardcoded first.

Thanks

If with "limited" you mean a summoning spell which kills its previous summoned units, you could use "phoenix" and "boar spirit", too.
Then you can obtain the same result even with normal summoning spells, without using triggers, just editing spells. If you need to know how, ak me.

 

[Vegavak]

exactly what I wanted to know.
++thanks!

edit: Still performing like every other base summon spell.

Not working like spiritwolf at all.

UUUH! problem solved! the summoned unit by the "phoenix" spell must have an ability based on "Mutant phoenix (linked to the egg)" to work like spiritwolf!

Post Scriptum:
"Mutant phoenix (linked to the egg)" is a rough translation from the italian version of the game, anyway search for something like this among the abilities that the phoenix itself has.

Stop double-posting.

I'll look into it, but probably end up triggering it instead. Thanks.

And sorry for posting two different replies, Rui. I was under the impression that double-posting was posting the same thing twice, not posting two completely different messages in succession at entirely different times.

ummmm u could also just make multiple versions of ghost wolf and edit the creatures that are summoned, if not, u can use summon water elemental from archmage, or u could use all of the beastmasters spells. hope u work it out gl

 

[HorizonTal]

those spells don't kill previously summoned units... and he can't use multiple versions of the same spell because they would activate together

 

[Rakavar]

no they dont....are u joking? Go to ability editor and right click and copy ghost wolf, Paste it 4 times in the custom abilities section. Change the name, iocn, summoned beast, the duration and they all are different spells

 

[HorizonTal]

yes, but try to give them all to the same unit, and activate only one of them: they will turn on together. Guaranteed.

Doesn't the Dark Portal work? Just change all the models to feral spirits.

I will check that when I can.

And yeah, multiple versions of the same spell = even if I change the hotkey, they will all activate off the same hotkey.

 

[HorizonTal]

dark portal requires a target on the terrain, and its summoned units are permanent and don't kill those previously spawned

 

[Vegavak]

Looks like I either have to limit my spells by cooldown or triggers.

Thanks for trying.
