How to add buff to a unit without creating a dummy caster

[zach_kirov]

Hi, I would like to know how to add buff to a unit without creating a dummy caster.

As I know, we can add an ability called "Tornado (Slow)" (that do not have interface icon) to the target unit, but the buff is shown in red color. I wish the buff to be in green color. Any idea?

I dont think that is possible.. But im not sure, since im not working so much with spells

You can add an ability called "Tornado (Slow)" and type color code in name of your buff

ok, it solved, but how about the art special effects of that buff? it will not show the special effect arts on the unit.

Use another ability.
See it in this map.

Wow, that means I need to create 2 abilities, 1 for creating buffs and another one for creating effects. Is that correct?

 

[D.O.G.]

I don't know another method.

Why not a dummy caster?, they don´t leak as long as you create a variable and a generic timer too the dummy.
If you want a buff without having a dummy then aura´s are your best bet, but somebody most be generating the aura!
