When you have a certain buff, that buff will appear right next to your "Status:" UI, right ?
Well, let's say I don't want that picture to appear, I just put the "_" at the "Art - Icon", now the icon is disappear, TRUE, but...
When we hover/move our cursor to that region, it still shows the buff
I want to completely remove this buff from Status
Sometimes, if the buff is at the middle of another buff, it will make other buffs look weird
Like:
Brilliance Aura | *BLANK SPACE* | Endurance Aura
Eventhough the buff is removed, the existance is still there
How to completely remove the buff space ?

I want this to answer too. I really needed this ability.
Hmmm...If you play DOTA Nevermore got a skill like this. I am doubting that Icefrog uses Command Aura to increase Nevermore damage. I want this also to occur. Please someone out there help us. If it is Jass can you make a GUI? thanks

It uses Bonus Attack Damage ability
This ability can't be seen in UI or Status
Just make it as formula
Make it 30 level, each level has +2 damage consequently added up
Level 1 - +2 damage | Level 2 - +4 damage and so on
1 unit kill = 1 level = +2 damage = set the level of that ability, got it ?

EDIT:
Make it 31 level
Level 1 = +0 damage, as to reset the bonus damage when the soul is 0 count

How can I make Bonus Attack Damage ability?
I really wanted this ability.
Easy :p
  • Bonus Attack Damage
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Is attacked
    • Conditions
      • (Level of YOUR ABILITY for (Attacking unit)) Greater than 0
    • Actions
      • Unit - Set level of Bonus Attack Damage for (Attacking unit) to ((Level of Bonus Attack Damage for (Attacking unit)) + 1)

Remove the buff via trigger, if it's a timed buff then it'll get removed, I don't know if it also works for aura type buffs.

I just checked, aura buffs do get removed, but the engine re-applies the buff periodically.

What I meant was...
I want to "not appear the buff in the status" problem, understand ?
Not removing the buff, literally
Remove the buff from Status *not seen* but the effects are there
Use item abilities as base, there are both attack speed and movement speed bonuses. Use them in a hidden spell book. No buffs.
I'd say it was an example
What if I want something else buff ?
Like Curse - Blind Effect
Is there such thing as Item Ability that let Blind Effect on units ?

What I truly wanted:
To make that "buff located at the right-side of the Status" to disappear from sight
At first, I managed to make it disappear by changing its icon to "_" but...
When we move our cursor to that Status position... we can actually see the tooltips of that buff
If it's possible to remove that buff from sight but still retain its effect ?
I know Maker said that use Item Ability as base item, but what about Blind effect ?
That buff, we can't base it off of Item, can we ?
It still shows buff
Also, usage of Critical Strike will ended up as "0" shown (is it?)

If there's no answer, I think this thread is closed, and it IS impossible to do it

Using Critical Strike in a hidden spell book and setting damage multipliers to negative values will make the unit do zero damage when the "crit" occurs. There will be no floating text of any kind displayed. There also won't be ability/buff icon.

Getting rid of a buff icon isn't possible as far as I know. You need to use something that doesn't add a buff.

Use Demolish Ability!!!! Now that would get the scripted numbers.

Edit: Whoopss.. Didn't think there's no Chance to miss like that.
