Item

[Shendoo2]

Im trying to make a item like the pipe bomb from life for dead where it attracts all the monsters and in like 5 seconds it explodes doing like 500 dmg to every unit thats by it. How would i do that? Will +rep if helped

EDIT:
Bump

Well.. If it's a single-instance item I think you could do something like:

Create a unit with taunt and create an item with an ability based on Item Place Goblin Land Mine.

Event
-Unit spawns a summoned unit
Condition
-Summoned unit equal to Pipe bomb
Action
-Order summoned unit to Mountain Giant Taunt
-Damage Area (this function should have delay time, radius, damage, etc)
-Kill last summoned unit

i just pick every unit within 500 to attack summoned unit =D

Actualy it's the same. The only difference is that your method may be slower because you make a loop action in area, while "taunt" spell may make it faster. But I don't think that there's a big difference.

Theres an abillity called "Lure". Used for an item wich creates a ward, that should "taunt" nearby units or something. Never tested it though.
