elemental immunities

[darkace77450]

Hello all, one last question for those of you with more talent and knowledge about the editor than myself. Is it possible (and if so how?) to make an upgrade that will make a unit immune to the slow effects of frost attacks (orb of frost, frost armor, etc)? Thanks in advance.

I dont think that there is, but you could always trigger it. Make an ability, maybe an aura that only effects you then make a trigger like this:

Every .1 seconds
Set TempGroup = Units in playable map area with buff Poison Immunity
Pick all units in TempGroup and do actions
...Remove Slow Poison buff from picked unit
custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)

I think when in Avatar those don't affect you...maybe editing Avatar ability?

Avatar = magic immunity. Im not sure if magic immunity protects from frost shield and frost attack, but it might. You should try that out first if you havent already. Just give the unit the ability Magic Immunity and change Techtree - Requirements for the ability to your upgrade.

it also makes you fully spell immune, you cant choose what you want or dont want when spell immune

I had already looked into editing the Avatar and Spell Immunity abilities but could not find any way to edit specific immunities. I will have to look into using a trigger I guess, but wanted to say thanks to those who replied.

Yeah, without JASS there's probably no clean way to do what you want to do.

You'll probably have to trigger for each specific spell you don't want a unit to be effected by and prevent it from actually being casted on the target, or to undo/purge the effects immediately when they take place.
