Black Arrow
Shoots a powerful dark arrow at the targeted unit.
Casting harms the caster.
Targeted unit suffers some damage.
There is a chance, that targeted unit suffers critical damage, that is 2x primary damage.
The arrow consists of pure fear, so the armor of targeted unit is reduced.
If targeted unit dies, it releases Howl of Pain, that reduces the armor of nearby enemy units.
As targeted unit dies by the arrow, the caster gains hit points, but if targeted unit is a hero, there is a chance that caster fully recovers its life.

Deuterium:

1. Spell is neither MUI nor MPI.


2. Well, both ways the kill is going to be for the triggering unit, so this:
  • (Life of Unit[2]) Less than 5.00
Should be:
  • (Life of Unit[2]) Less than 0.41
And don't damage it afterwards.


3. Although in my opinion the Wait isn't much of a problem here, avoiding using it.


4. In the Black Arrow Check trigger, add some as much adjustable globals as you can to make it possible for the user to adjust all he wants there.



One of my favorite spells! Idea is one of a kind and very useful. Just fix what I mentioned and I guess you're good to go.

Lovely spell. Love the idea. Love it all. But

Isnt it better to make a variable for all speciall effects? like

  • action
  • create special efffect at ...
  • set last created effect to ...
  • call destroy effect udg...
because it's ALOT of destroy last created effect and ALOT of effects after each other thought but it works anyway ...

for now
