Item Bonus - Decrease Attack Speed

[Miles111]

In my map, your attack speed is determined by what weapon your using, meaning certain weapons might give you a large damage bonus but don't have a fast attack speed.

How can I make an ability that works with weapons that decreases attack speed? I thought I could just take Item Attack Speed Bonus and put a negative variable in there . . . but blizzard pulled a ------ move and decided not to allow the map editor to put negative variables in base abilities that are supposed to be positive . . . which I am convinced means there will be complications . . .

File -> Preferences, tick 'Enable negative values' in options. Now just press shift + D on given field to customize it.

Oh btw is there a way to add Editor Suffix to items? I need that pretty bad, lol.

I'm afraid, there isn't such field. Every text field in Item Editor has it's meaning displayed in-game.

btw I just found out that my character's attack animation is very slow when decreasing attack speed. Is there any way I can just increase the cooldown time between attacks? Thats kind of what I was aiming for in the first place.

i think it is

combat - attack 1 animation backswing point
combat - attack 1 animation damage point

I'd use this, if I were you: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/general-mapping-tutorials-278/hero-passive-transformation-198482/
and each unit-type should have a different Combat - Attack 1 - Cooldown Time.

Wouldn't I have to make a copy of every hero for every weapon in my map if I used that?
btw rate and comment on my avatar, k ty.
