Negative Rejuvenation

[Kam]

If you set Rejuvenation to a negative value and cast it not all of the effect is removed once the buff expires. Any thoughts?

What do you mean effect? (visuals or stats)

A solution could be when the value hits ~ 0.01, remove the buff.

It's an odd thing. Just take rejuvenation, set it's Hit Points Gained to -30, and allow enemies to be targeted. You'll see that once the Duration expires the life drain is not removed.

Edit: Further testing reveals that if you use a normal unit to cast it works fine, but if you use a dummy unit this problem occurs.

Edit 2: I feel like this is one of those Blizzard hard coded issues. Is there an alternative you can think of to achieve the same effect?

triggered damage?

A timer system.
A custom buff handler.
Some suggestions...

However I was not able to come across your problem, mind giving me a demo/sample of it?

I attached a sample of what I tested.

It seems to be a combination with a passive spell based on Spiked Shell, although I don't understand how the two are affecting each other.

Still don't see it even with your testmap. . .

There is no such problem because you seem to be misunderstanding what is going on.

The ability that is causing your issue is spiked shell, not the other one... The other one works perfectly from what I saw.

"You'll see that once the Duration expires the life drain is not removed."
That kind of means your spiked shell passive is doing it.

The comparison is between the Knight and Footman. Have both of them cast the channel based spell. Once the spell buff expires on the Grunt make sure the Footman is no longer attacking and watch the Grunt's HP - you will see it still decreases.

Still don't see it, I suggest posting a replay because this isn't going anywhere. I would post a replay, but I don't see why because I don't see any such problem.
