[Spell] Ray of Frost

[Lordul Dracula]

Hello, I want to make a skill like Ray of Frost from Wow that will deal damage over time and slow the movement speed of the target. I tried to use Life Drain (but the problem with this skill is the life steal effect) and Aerial Shackles (as for this the problem is that the target will not be able to move). Does anyone have any idea want i could use to make this skill?

Mind Flay - v.0.01

Requested by Quetzalcotl The caster channels evil energy to hurt his target equal to the value of his intelligence times the spells' level. Duration: 5 seconds Cooldown: 30 seconds (How to set these ' ' ' in this case?) Nothing fancy but useful Events Unit - A unit...

You can check it out here, it's the same, you just gotta add a dummy in the cast trigger, and in loop just make it cast slow so it would also slow.

Hi thx for your answer, I need a trigger that will not check every sec, as for the slow effect I have a solution already (slow aura). This skill is for a hero in a custom race map.

Than you can use the life drain or mana drain for the lightning effect, and trigger a DOT, make it disable when the order is not the one of the life drain/mana
So it is instant damage

Hmmm the problem with this would be that there will be 2 buffs for the same skill that will appear on the enemy one that will be the slow aura and the other would be the dmg.

You want your damage to be instant or per second?

 

[Lordul Dracula]

Per second that is why i tried to use Life Drain and Aerial Shackles.

 

[P3in]

You can try the mind flay if you want per second, there is no another way to do dmg per second without a check every sec, why you don't want a check per sec?

Because it can cause lag and I am not sure will work very well if there will be 2 or more hero with this skill.

The spell i linked, is MUI, 8192 units can use it at the same time

 

[Lordul Dracula]

Ok I will try that skill, thx for your help. +rep
