Editing a spell

[Yorozuya]

Hello, I'd like to change the way a spell works.
Currently, I'm working on Divine Shield. What I want to do is to remove the invulnerability and change it into armor bonus. I was able to add the bonus but that's all. Can anyone help me?

Use Howl of Terror as the base ability, set targets to self, and armour reduction to a negative value.

Divine Shield is pretty hard-coded, you can't remove it's invulnerability.

or use Battle Roar, then do the same as rulerofiron99 said:
set targets to self. no need to put in a negative armor value with this spell.
so its shown as a positive buff. howl would add a negative

Ah, I knew I was forgetting an ability!

I tried the Howl but it gave me decreased armor.
I'll try battle roar now.

Thanks, it worked

and armour reduction to a negative value.

if you type a negative value into the field it gives you - - Armor
and 2 times - === + ;D
so it will add armor.
but use battle roar

How about a dummy unit that will cast the Inner Fire spell on your unit??
Create an invisible dummy unit and a manipulated ability of Inner Fire(Human Priest ability) that increases only armor.
Then, create a spell (I suggest Thunder Clap) and put all its values in that way so they wont do a thing. Set for example damage 0.00, duration 0.01 e.t.c.
Just always rememer to be a spell that is casted immediately and not like Storm Bolt or Frost Nova.
Finnaly, via triggers order the dummy unit to cast the Manipulated Inner Fire spell to your hero when he casts the Manipulated Thunder Clap.

P.S Set the Durration of Manipulated Inner Fire to the time you want your hero to have the armor bonus.

why using a trigger if it works without

I know that a waste of time but I just wanted to kill my time typing something.

maybe a tip for you DESTROYER123: dont use thunder clap for that its a terrain deformation (i think you cant remove that), and it could lag.
best way in my opinion is fan of knives, it has rly low cast time and you can set everything to 0

 

[DESTROYER123]

Thanks GIMLI_2!!!!
+rep to you and every one in this thread!!!
Happy New Year!!!!

@GIMLI and DESTROYER
Use Channel, the Godfather of all trigger-based spells (well, in this case, we'll do without triggers - more efficient).

 

[DESTROYER123]

I can't find it

I think further conversation should be continued on PM/VM.
