Shadowraze spell

[BloodDrunk]

Hello guys, I need someone to help me make shadowraze(nevermore) spell for my map. I started doing something but it doesn't work at all.
Can someone make trigger for that spell? (in GUI if possible, I dont know jass)

Here's a little testmap. The Skin was made by zadelim, so make sure you give credits to him if you use it. The shadowraze model was made by me ages ago, you can use it if you want. For the triggers, just copy the "Shadowraze" category and the three abilities "Shadowraze (Q) (200/Hero-Ability)", "Shadowraze (W) (450)" and "Shadowraze (E) (700)" into your map.

P.S.: Please post in the World Editor Help Zone forum next time, if you want someone to create a spell for you.

Edit: mckill is right, so i merged the triggers.

Thanks a lot guys! you both helped me.
I did the smo trigger as you but my didn't work and I don know why :/

 

[BloodDrunk]

I have 1 more question

How to make damage be dealt like this: lvl 1: 200, lvl 2: 400, lvl 3: 800 and so on? cuz i'm making map with imba spells and heroes

 

[nGy]

Basically exchange this:

• Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing ((Real((Level of Shadowraze (Q) (200/Hero-Ability) for (Triggering unit)))) x 75.00) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

with that:

• Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing ((Real(((Level of Shadowraze (Q) (200/Hero-Ability) for (Triggering unit)) x (Level of Shadowraze (Q) (200/Hero-Ability) for (Triggering unit))))) x 100.00) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

In that case I'd actually recommend using a little custom script instead, but as you didn't want any Jass involved, I suppose, this is the way to go. (You could, however temporarily store the "Level of Shadowraze (Q) (200/Hero-Ability) for (Triggering unit)" into a variable and then multiply that variable with itself for a slightly better outcome)

Edit: Sorry, made a stupid mistake there. It should actually be:

• Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing ((Power(2.00, (Real((Level of Shadowraze (Q) (200/Hero-Ability) for (Triggering unit)))))) x 100.00) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

instead.

Thanks man

 

[BloodDrunk]

I got problem, when I cast spell, no effects appears but damage is dealt, what's the problem?

 

[Magtheridon96]

Is the path of the special effect that is being created in the trigger a valid one?
Change it to the path of the special effect you imported and it should work.

 

[BloodDrunk]

yes, the effect didn't work, I changed it, now it works ok

 

[BloodDrunk]

I have another question. Do I have to put trigger destroy last created effect 2 times if I make trigger that creates special effect 2 times (2 different effects ofc)

 

[KhaosMachine]

I made this for you, maybe serve

 

[BloodDrunk]

Thank you ChaosMachine. I appreciate u took time to make me spell

 

[nGy]

I have another question. Do I have to put trigger destroy last created effect 2 times if I make trigger that creates special effect 2 times (2 different effects ofc)

Yes, you have to destroy every special effect you create (except if you don't want it to be temporary).

 

[BloodDrunk]

I figured it out when I did it

 

[defskull]

Omg nested if-else of ability level !

 

[BloodDrunk]

defskull, the spell works perfectly, dont worry
