IS there an ability in warcraft 3 which could up your acuuracy?

By acuuracy i mean chance for an attack to hit the enemy.

Thanks,

No, there isn't.

Like in Curse ability? You could catch the attack start of the unit, roll your dice and add/remove a curse buff with 100%.

You could add abilities that decrease the accuracy, then remove them whenever you want to :3

Well if there isnt any abil to up ur acuuracy, then can you code it?

Accuracy in Warcraft III (without having negative buff of Curse-based ability) is totally, 100%.

You can alter this fact, into adding Curse ability to the unit.

Well, I guess you will have to create the ability to 100 levels or so (1% for 1 level) or you can do 20 levels (5% for 1 level), your choice.

At start, the unit has 20% (example values) chance to miss on normal attack, over time, it will improve based on levels, items, etc, and your Curse will start to decrease to like 11% (example values) miss or so, this mean that your Accuracy has risen

A good idea to make Accuracy-based system is your unit should be based on Agility or whatever, like 7 Agility for -1% chance to miss upon attack. (this is just an idea)

Important element is the Curse-based ability gets into action.

u can code it with gui damage system, easily just make a integer variable arrray where u store the unit accurancy, another for eva, and make a formula

so simple a example when unit accurancy[custom value of unit]=unit agility*20+accurancy from items + accurancy from buff (ofc this last 2 thing depend by ur system , i definied the stats at map init and add x bonus if unit pick x item and if wear off then decrease that thing)

like

If Accurancy[custom value of damageeventsource]>Evasion[custom value of damageeventtarget] then do dmg else write miss with floating text

ok i suggest

read this and do your system with gui damage suystem without dummy unit and any ability

http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Damage#Evasion_.2F_Accuracy

Most physical attacks can be evaded, in which case they do 0 damage. Magic attacks never miss.
evade% = ( target evasion - 1 ) / ( ( 2 * attacker accuracy ) + ( target evasion - 1 ) )
hit% = 1 - evade%
The evade equation is rounded up to the nearest 2 decimal places (remember 0.67 = 67%). Thus you can only get a 100% hit% if the target's evasion = 1.

I suggest evasion and hidden spell book.
Set evasion levels from 1 to 100 (1% evasion per level).

Yes, Evasion is to be added to Attacked Unit, while Curse is to be added to Attacking Unit, if you combine them both, I think it's pretty dynamic system that you will obtain from it

But if you prefer simplicity, go for only one of them (Either Attacked Unit has Evasion or Attacking Unit has Curse)

Set evasion levels from 1 to 100 (1% evasion per level).

I believe Evasion rounds the chance up or down to the nearest number that can be divided by 5.

For example
1 -> 5 (or 0)
3 -> 5
8 -> 10
9 -> 10

EDIT: Tested with Critical Strike, over 1000 hits with each test.
It rounds to the nearest number that can be divided by 5.

1 -> 0
2- > 0
2.49 -> 0
2.51 - > 5
7 -> 5
9 -> 10

and so on.

True but player don't need to know that ^_^

but why u want do with lv100 abilities if its easily work with bribe damage engine + 2 variable and few calculation (and few predefined variable if we want increase the accurancy with items)
