I was wondering how to make a spell where the hero shoots 5 frost bolts in a cone which deals damage to all that it hits (if hit by more than one than it deals more), and having the frost nova effect on the units hit, any idea how to do it?
I tried following a tutorial but sorta failed, and my hero only shoots one in a repeated direction (not direction of cast)

The directions... are sort of like you hand fingers with the middle finger being direction of cast

I would be glad if someone would help me write some trigger (no leaks if possible) for this thanks

Show us your attempt and maybe we can point out where you've gone wrong.

But anyways, you'd want to trigger missiles that check for collision periodically, then cast frost nova on whatever it hits. That's basically it. You just do this five times for the required angles.

I use GUI for it and i'm just trying to get it to work now... will insert anti-leak custom scripts later

[trigger]Custom script: Hell World ![/trigger]
Post your trigger like this, it would be easier to read.

It would turn out to be like this;

• Custom script: Hell World !

With this, you won't achieve what you want with the Shockwave ability. The object ability doesn't allow you to create on-hit effects such as slow, unfortunately. You'll probably have to trigger the missiles themselves as I previously said.
