Projectile that drains experience

[Jicyphex]

So, the title said it.
I've a projectile that deals damage but I also want it to make any hero that touches the flying projectile to lose experience. It also would be pretty nice to tweak the value depending on the level of this ability (I got 10 levels in my map). This is my current ability

I'm not so sure since I haven't tried this doing similar in a long time, but I am pretty sure that if you want heroes to lose experience and also lose levels, you're going to have to find out what values of experience a hero needs to level up. Warcraft 3 acts a little different when you want experience and levels removed instead of the opposite. Every time this ability activates and a unit loses experience, I think you have to use the function UnitStripHeroLevel, too.

Eeeeh, I really don't know too much about this since in my test map all I did was remove levels, not experience. Take my advice with a grain of salt. What I DO know is that if you want heroes to lose levels you must use UnitStripHeroLevel since SetUnitHeroLevel refuses to take negative values.

I am glad you like my idea but could you tell me how to do it?

This...?

• Hero - Add -100 experience to (Triggering unit), Show level-up graphics

Why Add? I want to remove experience, not add. Either I misunderstood you or you misunderstood me...
I want a projectile that kills exp... like = -100 xp

 

[GangSpear]

Ya,it is -100 xp, you don't have see?

Ah,allright...Kinda dumb..it was pretty late though.
Now I have to implement this somehow.
