Seal of Light

[Peacehagen]

Type: Instant (No Target)
Description: Activates a seal which causes the Paladins attacks to restore X health.
Seal Duration: 10 sec

I was wondering how do I make this spell work properly? Using the Event "A unit is attacked" does not work, because if I spam the stop button its like the Paladin is spamming out attacks which does not deal damage but heals him.

Thanks for any help on this!

Try using a modified Item Life steal ability.

Unit starts the effect of an ability
Ability = your ability
Add life steal to triggering unit
wait 10 seconds
Remove life steal ability

In all it's simplicity, it could be like this.

Is it possible to steal à specific value instead of à % of damage dealt?

 

[Maker]

I don't think there is, unless you trigger all spell damage. That way you can know for sure that the damage come from a normal attack.

Ok, i was thinking if there is à system on this site that could detect if damage is dealt from an attack and then cause the heal. I found à gui damage engine, but not sure if it works like that.

This seems to be the smarter way, try it. But use a timer instead of the wait, ofc.

So you want a spell that once activated, apply a buff to caster, causing his attacks to restores X health?

I might take a try on it.

Edit: Ok done. Take a look and tell me what you think.
I used Bribe's Damage engine to make it work so remember to credit him as well.

Thanks man, I'll try it out

vampiric potion does just that
u can modify the field 'data is raw value' which is standard on false to make it a specific number

Using local variable + wait = MUI too, what's the problem ?

With a simple usage of a trigger, wait can still be used, don't underestimate it, and it should only be used for simple trigger such as in this case, add lifesteal and remove it later on.
