Chance on Hit / Chance

[tahku]

How do you make a chance on hit skill? How would the triggers work, if someone could show me how that'd be great.

Maybe a skill that is like, chance on hit to purge or fireball.

I really just wanna know all about % and how to use it well.

• Fury
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Warrior
  • Actions
    • Set WarriorRandomAttack = (Random integer number between 1 and 100)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • WarriorRandomAttack Greater than 90
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Add WarStomp (Warrior) to (Attacking unit)
        • Unit - Order (Attacking unit) to Orc Tauren Chieftain - War Stomp
        • Wait 1.00 seconds
        • Unit - Remove WarStomp (Warrior) from (Triggering unit)
      • Else - Actions

Provides 10% chance.


Random# = An Real # Variable

This is from my map

You should note that the "Unit - A unit Is attacked" event is abusable. If you keep spamming the right click button the trigger is going to fire. I think the orb of lightning might be of help with this problem but I don't have WE open right now because I'm in the middle of a game

dont need to use a variable... just do

• (Random integer number between 1 and 10) Greater than or equal to (>=) 9

and yes as emperor said u can exploit that, u need a damage detection system to make it unexploitable(correct?^^)

 

[Kwah]

Ohh, I suppose.

The Unit is Attacked is a good point, but hard to fix.

 

[tahku]

Thanks for the pointers, but I'm still a little confused. Anyone want to elaborate on a "damage detection" system, that's treading into deep water for me and I'd really be greatful.

PS. [ + Rep ] to you guys.

Edit: What is this about the lightning orb ability?

 

[terradont]

There is an item in wc3 that has a % chance to cast an purge. The item skill may be edited to have your prefered skill & chance per hit. The problem with this skill is that it is an orb effect(ever wondered why maelstrom and sange&Yasha in DotA is orb effects) So it won't stack with other orb effects.

U can find the skill under Special - items - orb of lightning

And as far from what i've heard, damage system in GUI always leaks a little. This is just something i've heard though.(well, more of read...)

But I heard that %change items are "half-orbs", if you have a orb and a "half-orb" when you attack, the orb effect you go, but in case the "half-orb" skill is used, the "half-orb" will take the effect instead of the orb.

I'm not sure about that, but seems to work on some cases, and that have something with items slot too... Orbs are so complicated...

 

[terradont]

I dunno if it is that way, i've never seen it. Could be worth testing.

I more or less hate the orb effect system, but it might also come in handy as an auto balancing thing. i mean feedback, bouncing, life-steal and increase damage with every strike seems rather imba in a hero map.
