I pressume you mean either one of two things:

Spelltriggers where you create an effect which not is aviable normally in wc3.
(using trigger f4)

Or

Editing a exsisting spell/ability. (just using the unit menu in world editor)

Which one?

That depends on what you want your spells to do.

For example a "Blink Stun" spell would be easy.
Copy and paste Storm Bolt. Name it Blink Stun. Set missile speed to max. You know Storm Bolt doesn't teleport the hero, so this must be done through triggers.
Create a trigger that says when the hero casts blink stun, he will be instantly moved at the location of the target.


This is a triggered ability. You need to give much more info on what you want exactly though.

Inded base it of shockwave change its model into a gust of air. Then use a knockback trigger, which there is plenty of around this site. (Might reguire JASS to look good though)

Use the link below to get an idea of what I mean.

Ok, I think I changed the model of the spell but not sure becuase when I test the spell out it doesn't show anything. How many things do I need to change to make it the model I want??

Well if the model doesnt show up, then you havent changed all you need to change (btw I think there is a model on hive with a shockwave of air). You will have to change ability model, effect model (if it have any (you need to change the model for the effect specific, remember to use copy & paste if you also want the normal shockwave in the map. Then change the effect used by the ability to the effect you just made by CnP)). Same system goes for Buff if the ability uses any.

Sorry for late answear. Have been on vacation.

(btw: same reson I am reviving this tread - Although I wont count it as reviving as the question wasnt answeared. )
