Hope i don't missunderstand you. I assume you want to cast flame strike custom several seconds after the first impale.

Event:
unit starts the effect on ability

condition:
ability being cast equal to impale_custom

action:
Set target_loc = Target point of ability being cast
wait 1 second.
Create dummy unit that has flame_strike_custom ability on target_loc
order last created unit to flame strike target_loc


You must use target_loc variable to store target position on first impale, because there is a wait action. whenever you put a wait action, you can't get an event response again after that(e.g. triggering unit, target unit, target point), so you must store it on variable to be used later.

NO, i think you can't, i haven't use that action actually. Just use 'starts the effect of an ability'. and wait several sec.

Complicaated spell always built by complicated code, dude :wink: Try to see Vexorian's Ice Slash, download it from wc3campaigns.com. It even give frost effect to each slashed target. But very complicated i think :p

Or just search this forum, i found the same question about 3 weeks ago.

why not do something like
Event - A unit begins casting a spell
----
Condition - Abilty being cast equal to (Desired ability)
----
Action -
Wait (Amount of time until the animations of your ability are over)
Create 1 (Dummy Flamestrike) at (Target Point of Ability Being Cast) for (Owner of (Casting Unit))


or something like that?
