Damage Text

[x-Metal-x]

You know how in dota, some abilites have the text that occurs when something damages it, but are in different colors (i.e. green and blue). I would love to know how to do that for a couple of my skills. And is there any way to choose other colors than that?

First of all, that isn't a spell, but I guess it kinda goes in that category. Anyway, whenever Warcraft displays a text, it will be white unless it is imbedded in an extremely confusing bit of text. I don't use it so I don't know how to use it. However, there's a program on this site that will help you.

Dunno how to use this either but it can't be that hard to learn. It'll generate the code you need for colors

That doesnt exactly answer my question, i have chaos spectrum already, i just need to know how to get the text above it, kind of like critical strike, but blue or yellow or whatnot. Does it use floating text? cuz if it does... ill b able to figure that out.

But You also have to use the disable permanence - action and life span so it would stay in the air for the rest of the game.
