Breath of Frost not applying buff

[hutecable2]

Basically for my map, I want breath of frost to 'chill' and slow units, so I just copied the ability, modifying it to my needs, however upon testing, the buff does not apply whatsoever... All that seems to happen is the units get damaged.

The duration for the spell is well above detectable (5+ seconds), and the triggering to add the slowing effect is not yet implemented. The skill is based on Breath of Frost (ACbf).
A buff is in the ability, and the buff has visible effects (icon + art).

Halp =/.

I don't have time to check your buffproblem, but an important thing to tell you is:
Breath of frost just deals an additional damage over time (like breath of fire does when a hit unit is trenched in alcohol), but has no slow.

Read the second paragraph.

After lots of dicking around, it seems you need to do > 0dps or it won't apply buff.

Set it to 0.01 then.

General rule: 0 is buggy. Better use something close to it then actually 0.
