Requestin An Ability

[Aeroblyctos]

Hey there.

I'm requesting from you a simple ability that I tried to do myself but I failed. Mostly because this is a MUI spell. I'm not good with MUI spells because I have been working last 1,5 years with a single player campaign. And yes, this ability will be added to the campaign called "The Chosen Ones".

Remember that you cannot use vJASS and this is a MUI spell(actually, there are only three units that can use this). Also remember to make the spell from "channel" ability so abilities won't bug(stack).

Meditate - Puts your hero into a rested state of mind; restoring 10% health and 5% mana every second. If the hero is attacked or moved, the effect is removed.

- When activated, unit stants still.
- When activated, unit is restoring 10% hit points and 5% mana every second.
- If the unit is attacked, or player moves it, this will be disabled.

So, if you can do this, I will give you some rep in here, credits in the campaign in two places: in the credit list and in the spell's description also.

EDIT: I'm also requesting in this thread a better spell description for the ability: "Meditate". Something like this epic:

Area Attack - Phodom's fighting mastery with his hammer gives him the ability to easily predict and counter-attack the enemies' blows. When he sees an opening in the enemies' defences, Phodom will strike with great force, dealing 500 damage to anyone nearby. But due to the big size of his weapon, Phodom cannot always counter-attack in such a manner and has only 10% chance to pull this move off.

I've already made a spell that does that thing, but that was not deactivateable. Only when attacked or after a chooseable duration the spell ends. But i can upload that if you need it.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

What do you mean "deactivateable" ?

This is just about clicking an ability and it starts to heal the caster for like 10 second or something.

Upload it, I want to see what you have.

You can't deactivate it by clikking the icon again.

Its actually quite easy, just modify the sleep abillity and the Item replinish life/mana abillity (You know the non-combat consumable one that some potions have). Then create an item (runebased, automatically activated when it enters the inventory), and remove the model and add the replinish abillity to it, offcause also removing all other abillities it have. At last create a dummy unit who cast the modified sleep on the caster and give the modified item to the caster.

This will create a unit that heals over time and can't move, attack or cast spells. And if attacked it will stop the effect.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Well, it seems like you know what to do. So can you do it...?

 

[Wizardum]

I don't know if the_silent will make the spell, but since the spell is pretty easy I can make it for you, mui and leakless.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Really? That would be awesome. I'm waiting for the ability curiously.

 

[Wizardum]

when you say it regenerates 10% of it's hit points, you mean life or max life?

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Just life. That would be insane that max life grows each time used.

Well... I just hope someone can do this.

It's almost done. I tried to use the life drain ability to make it channel, but it can't target self, so I use a stomp ability. hope you don't mind it, but it still checks if you order him to do anything or when he is attacked.

It has only one issue, he will automaticaly attack a nearby enemy.

[EDIT] Done!

Actually stomp is already used ability. I really hope you can do it from Channel or an ability that I don't use. Currently characters uses about all basic abilities... So it's difficulty to find an ability that I'm not using. =/

 

[Wizardum]

do you know any other channel ability (exclude drain life and blizzard)

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Big Bad Voodoo.

 

[The_Silent]

Starfall, Stampede

 

[Wizardum]

cool thanks, I'll finish it this afternoon

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Starfall is already used.

 

[Wizardum]

okay, here it is. I used big bad voodoo.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

I think the ability bugs. It first doesn't give enough of health & and mana. I have attached the newest version of the spell to this post. Please fix this bug, thank you.

 

[Wizardum]

it heals 10% of the current health, and 5% of the current mana, just like you said.
And I tested it again, and it gradually heals faster.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Oh yea, now I know how it works.

Million thanks for you, this is really going to improve the campaign. Player doesn't anymore need to buy those boring "tubes" that heals you. You really earn this reputation point and also credits at the campaign. Thanks again for your work, you are great.

 

[Wizardum]

thanks! anytime!
