Magic resistance for hero?

[Windu]

Hello forum,
I have a question. I never did anything with spell resistance, so I just don't know, which ability already gives magic resitance ? (x% magic restitance bonus) and can be learned by hero levels?

There's an item ability for the runed bracers which passively adds magic resistance. In "Abilities" check under "Special" - "Items". It's called Spell Magic Reduction. Also, there's a spell called Magic Defense, but it's an active spell. It's like Defense but with magic resistance rather than ranged unit damage. I hope this helps .

Yeah, I know about the runed shits ability, but does it work as a hero ability with multiple levels? :? THat's what I am worried about ...

Otherwise thanks - I will try to find that magic defence
+rep for answer!

Magic defense is in "abilities" - "human" - "units". And yes, the runed bracer ability works as a hero ability with multiple levels. Set "Item Ability" to "False" then set "Hero Ability" to "True" and set "Levels" to how many levels you wish your ability to have.

Well, you need to make a passive spell, based on Bash for example with values set to 0 and, when the hero learns it:

• Trigger
• Events
  • Unit - A unit learns a skill
• Conditions
  • (Learned Hero skill) Equal to X
• Actions
  • If (All conditions are true) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (Level of (Learned Hero skill)) Equal to 1
    • Then - Actions
      • Unit - Add (Ruined Bracers) to (Triggering unit)
    • Else - Actions
      • Unit - Set level of (Ruined Bracers for (Triggering unit)) to (Level of X for (Triggering unit)

Make multiple levels for the Ruined Bracers. If they don't level up, add the Ruined bracers ability in a Spell Book and

• Trig
• Events
  • Map Initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Player - Disable (Spell Book) for Player(IntegerA)

Triggers aren't necesary... You can just level up the ability normally if you set it as a hero ability in the object editor.

I think it won't work like that. No icon will show. I've tried with another spell based off an item ability.
Pharaoh is right.. though it won't level up :?

Hmm... I think you're right. I was thinking that it has a "Show icon" field like Channel, but now that I look more carefully, it doesn't. In this case, yeah, you need those triggers. Heh, sorry about the last post .
