Hanky:
Really nice looking spellpack. Everything is leakless and MUI. So it's fine enough for an approval.

 

[hell gate]

[Bennyonfire]

Wow, this is awesome....Great spells man 5/5

 

[Maker]

Sorry, I was testing the character limit for posting the triggers. I actually hit upload before removeving the extra text.

Is it possible to change rating? After you've tested the pack ofcourse.

 

[hell gate]

sure you can change rating
just klick again on the rating button (on the number what you think )

 

[Zanekok]

realy great pack 5/5

 

[baassee]

WAY TO MANY AWSOME TRIGGERS FOR EACH SPELL ... especially the first one, sry man have no time reading it threw now later will be

 

[odemmah]

too demonic...it should be more frost spells.but just "idea" i give you 5/5 cuz no man cant never thinking like this spellpack.

 

[Pharaoh_]

This is a great pack, as I told you. I love it.
hemmedo, slow and freezing effects is enough I think. Plus, Lich King has a demonic side, since he had had a blood pact with Kil'jaeden.

 

[Kingz]

Almost none of the effects are put up well together.

Some are purely spam of effect(Distortion Wave) while others have no connection between themselves, auras are meant to be passive not togleable and more than all this spellpack deserves no more than 4/5.

The coding is fine, the effects(spell effects, not eyecandy) are mostly general + one of the spells is extremely bug abuseable so no chance for 5/5.

 

[Maker]

one of the spells is extremely bug abuseable

Which spell would that be and how is it bug abuseable?

 

[Kingz]

The one where you turn off a unit's colisions size? I mean you do know how much abuse can be provided with that spell?

You can:
Pass through destructables
Pass through items
Pass through structures
Pass through water(afaik)
Pass through all possible pathing blockers
Get stuck
Walk on all cliff heights like a god.

That pretty much sums it up, if that ain't abuseable then i dunno.

 

[Dr. Boom]

Seas =)

Jeah here we go - you release your map ( didn't notic it ... )

As I said to you while I was testing your map - I like everything - ok I didn't know that Distort Reality should be as a bug - I thought that is normally that the lich king can walk through thinks if he cast this/his mighty ability.

But still I give you 5/5 because I just like everything!

Edit: Dude I'm sorry for posting this but some how the "Contages Insanctus" not always turns the terrain into ice... I don't know I just cast some spells normally ice created but then somehow the aura was active but no ice terrain

 

[Maker]

The one where you turn off a unit's colisions size? I mean you do know how much abuse can be provided with that spell?

Alright, I'll do something about it, I'll add some kind of pathing check.

Edit: Dude I'm sorry for posting this but some how the "Contages Insanctus" not always turns the terrain into ice... I don't know I just cast some spells normally ice created but then somehow the aura was active but no ice terrain

I think it's because when you get stunned, the "deactivate" trigger fires, so the triggered effects turn off, while the icon stills shows the spell is on. I'll fix it.

 

[Maker]

v1.01:

Frozen units can no longer be dragged/kncoked back.
Contages Insanctus now correctly checks the mana cost of the ability.
Created a variable for turning collision off for the caster when using Distort Reality, so the use can easily turn that on/off for the ability.
Changed the tootip for Distortion Wave a bit.

I left the collision off for the caster by default, because that's the way I want it to be. His physical existence is in another reality, so he should be able to pass through things. If you get stuck, that's your own fault. You can cast the ability again eventually. Or just disable the collision altering for the ability in the options.

 

[Maker]

v.1.02
Changed the special effects for Distort Reality's projectiles.
Merged two triggers in Distort Reality.
Orbs for Northrend's Wrath are no longer keyed with the caster's handle, they are now used on their own. This reduces the amount of times the spell needs to load hashtable data -> better performance.

 

[Tiche3]

Great spellpack 12/10

 

[Tygerq]

Amazing spells, I have no experience with "designing" my own custom spells or even working with JASS (at all), but this is amazingly fun to play with.

 

[exZeroCooler]

Very cool you split my job on half i started creating my first map and lich king needed new spells so thanks man

 

[reason 3]

Epic spellpack, i loved each one of the spells inside.

All of them really usefull.

5/5 from me.

 

[Spiritless_One]

Very good, however, I don't think that all of these spells are necessarily "Lich King" spells, but great idea, and they work in fine nonetheless.

5/5

 

[kirbyclip]

I am new at this but when I put it on my map when I cliked on it, it looked like he was casting but nothing hapend plz help

 

[aodtonix]

i cant download it why T.T

 

[Maker]

You can PM me the map. If I have some time, I can try to fix it.

 

[kirbyclip]

Maker you are going to help me?

 

[tsiga]

unreal awesome 5/5

 

[reason 3]

Do you plan on making other spell packs too?

 

[Maker]

Not sure. I may move on to SC2

 

[aider]

really nice spells for the Lich King, which is the last fight in my map

But when I order the Lich King to cast "Mens Imperium", something goes wrong. Everything works when other players or myself cast the spell. But the computer casts the spell, takes over the unit, but the unit doesnt go back to its previous owner after 10seconds, the mind controlled unit stays with the computer until death. This only happens when I order a computer to cast it Anyone else experienced the same thing? Can it be something with "Previous player" triggers or something?

 

[Maker]

I can take a look at it if you provide a test map.

 

[aider]

wow, really?
The map is attached to the first post here: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/map-development-202/defense-stormwind-180685/#post1730215

If it's not too much trouble, can you make the spell target only heroes? Would be cool if the Lich King mind controlled a hero, making him unavaible for the player and hostile to his friends for the duration.

EDIT: Thanks alot for your help! Very kind.

 

[Maker]

There you go:

Pastebin link

For any other issues, throw me a PM.

 

[Zpider]

I got a issue with Mens Imperium as well. It was bloody impossible to implement in my map.
Perhaps a more detailed explanation is required?

 

[Maker]

Here's how to import Mens Imperium:

Make sure the following box is checked:
File -> Preferences -> General -> Automatically generate unknown variables while pasting triggers

Copy and paste the ability.
Copy and paste the triggers.
In Mens Inperium trigger, set the Ability being cast to the correct ability.

That should be it. If it doesn't work, throw me a private message, preferably with a download link to your map so I can make the spell work for you,

 

[Maker]

Fixed bug where the Mens Imperium's max range wasn't working.

 

[D4RK_G4ND4LF]

I wonder why I didn't see this spellpack yet
it defenitly is worth testing
5/5

edit:
forgot to recommend windwalk with 99999 fading time (no unit collision) instead of no collision at all

Lich King Spellpack v1.02

Moin moin =)

== My personal vote APPROVAL [5/5] (but fix the posted bugs please) ==

Hey I remember this Spellpack and now I see it in the spell section and thought myself why not look what it becomes until now.

I don't have to say that you did a great job with this pack. Really good spells and effects, BUT I must report some bugs.

If I use "Contages Insanctus", I can walk out of the map. Maybe you can fix that. When I'm out of map and activate the spell again, I can't move in.

Screen for this:

And I have to say that "Frostmourne's Hunger" can bug in 3 cases and I have a little note to the spell.

1) I can't explain the first bug, so I uploaded a screen and I hope you can get it =O

screen

The hero stopped at the point where he stands now and the shockwave effect remains for ever.

2) If I use this spell, I rush to a target. But if the target has a longer distance, I can about this rush by fast clicking on another point of the map. So the hero about the rush, but again the shockwave effect remains for ever.

3) If I rush to a target, all nearby targets get knocked back and freez. I use this ability more times and then even freezed unit can attack me.

Screen

There you see the rifleman, who is frozen but he attacks me ( can't get a better screen ) and I don't know if he really was frozen or just the effect stays on the unit.

4) (the note): If I use the ability, rush to a target, nearby targets get knocked back and frozen. Then I use this ability again and the frozen targets get knock back again. This is of course optional but frozen units can't get knockback I think. Also I get a huge lag when I use this ability the first, but maybe this is just my low computer ^^

Ok this is all for now. I know those bugs should get minus points [3/5], but I know your trigger skills and I now for you it will be an easy thing to fix these problems. Also this Spellpack is great (without these bugs^^) so I think [5/5] is a good choice.

Note: (I alway type this note to my sure everyone understand it!) My review are NOTHING against these spells and/or NOTHING against the creator of these spells. I just detect some bugs and want post it here, then there can be fixed.

Greetings and Peace

[Maker]

Thank you for reporting the bugs.

v1.03
The caster is now paused when charging with Frostmourne's Hunger.
Frozen units won't get knocked back with Frostmourne's Hunger.
The caster can no longer walk out of playable map area with Distort Reality.

I'll continue testing for more bugs.

 

[Vlad727]

Great spellpack!
my opinion 5/5
and
+rep

 

[Dr. Boom]

Moin moin =)

Ahh cool you fixed the reported bugs, but I'm sorry now there's another bug.

When I have Contages Insanctus active and use Frostmourne's Hunger, the hero rush to the target. After finish this spell, the Contages Insanctus button is still on enable, but there is no effect of Contages Insanctus anymore.

Screen

Also I don't know if that was the plan, but if I cast "Nothrend's Wrath" press Esc and use again "Nothrend's Wrath", the first cast isn't stopped, to I got 2 "Nothrend's Wrath" at the same time ( after the 3rd "Nothrend's Wrath" my fps is down anyway ).

Ok that's all now! Again I say this spellpack is create and I red on page to "may you go to SC2" - I hope not, we will miss you =(

Note: (again to make sure ^^) My review is NOTHING against you and/or NOTHING against the spellpack!

Greetings and Peace
Dr. Boom

 

[Tommerbob]

All of the spells are really cool. My favorite is the Distort Reality. But I do have 2 concerns:

1. They are too "flashy". too many special effects. Lag is not the issue, it just looks too much.

2. Too many effects for each spell. Take the first spell for example: Frostmourne's Hunger. Isolates target. Knockback. Stun (freeze). + attack speed, + damage (while reducing the target's). That is easily 2 abilities in itself that would both still be awesome.

Overall, I give it a 4/5.

 

[Squall_Leonheart]

awesome spell!
4.5/5 reason----> too flashy.... too many effects [thats just me i guess]
+ rep
+ ur awesome!

 

[Thepriest1750]

Thanks alot!

These are great 5/5

 

[Demonizer]

*speechless*
i vote for a DC

 

[ijal razi]

maker?
can you create spell passive with knockback

 

[Terror]

I wonder how I can use spells to download this site on my map

 

[haxer1337]

Sick lol Im wondering about 1 thing. How exactly did you create a spell like any of the above? are you just trying things out?

 

[Leon Magic]

Hey no where was I noticed how to use the spells or get them in the game after downloading. Can someone help me?

 

[TheForgotten]

Hey guy i have a question, can you also use it with vjass?
