This spell is prtty impresive when cast. It also does what it says it does and appears to not be buggy (doing strange or unexpected things). The damage based on stats I like a lot is many RPGs could benifit from using such a system. Also the fact thats it is both MUI and leakless makes it very usable in almost every map. The mechanics behind it could be slightly more cleaver but that might add additional complexity to the spell which would make it hard to use. Unfortunatly it can be hard to modify specific parts of the spell and its efficiency is not very good both due to it being GUI.

Suggestions . . .
- Optimize code (using jass if nescesscary)

Gj on finding the time to create spells and do requests!
I didn't know you make spells until recently when you started uploading spells...

@The Spell
A requested spell, i won't rate it cuz it's made for the wishes of the requester, my opinion isn't that important, it's the requester's rating you should value...

There's a bit of a problem with how this spell interacts with other systems for notifications about a Hero's death and revival system (in AOS maps, typically).
I have separate systems to inform when a Hero dies, where a message appears, and another one for reviving it, etc and it always registers the fire darts as Heroes LOL. Very annoying.

Additional bug: replacing the darts with normal, Non Hero units should have dealt with the problem, as the Intelligence can be stored as an integer anyway, but for some reason the dummy units keep on MISSing the target (the word "miss" actually appears).
