Increasing Ability Damage with an Upgrade?

[Xzife_TD01]

Title says it all, is it possible to increase the damage of a certain ability by using an upgrade in the object editor?

 

[Masiah]

I'm not sure, but I think you can use the Tinker's ability Improve Ingeniering to increase damage in an ability.

 

[En_Fuego]

Set however many levels there are in the Upgrade to how many levels there are for the ability. Set the unit you want to effect's Upgrade Damage to however much you want the upgrade to increase his damage by. Then create a trigger so when he learns the ability at Level 1 it researches the Level 1 Upgrade, etc.

 

[Xzife_TD01]

ok, so that covers hero abilities, but what about just plain unit abilities?

 

[Masiah]

With plain abilities use the trigger system that En_fuego proposes.

In Orc Gladiater, there is a upgrade for Damage, that increases you "Base damage" and not just addaing green numbers next to. Is this whats its all about?

There is a separate upgrade for Aura data bonus, but if it's not an aura, you should use En_fuego's method.

No, im saying like the Neutral Hostile Fireball ability. Instead of increasing base damage, it increases the damage of the ability itself.

Make multiple levels to fireball. There is an upgrade called "Increase level of an ability" or if you like, you can trigger it.
