Share Damage

[Ascartes]

Hey guys, I hope this one is simple. I need a trigger or something where if one unit takes damage, another takes the same amount. If you need more info, just ask. Thanks in advance

Try messing with the mimic flag under the damage effect. It makes the units mirror each other's condition.

there should be a way with just the data editor, but a trigger can work if you just want to test it

make a custom damage effect in the data editor just for triggered damage

then you can change the damage value of this effect and apply it in any trigger.

So you can have a generic "unit takes damage trigger" with the actions:
- set effect value for custom damage effect to (real-damage taken)
- apply effect custom damage effect to (other unit)

be careful though to make sure you don't have an infinite loop because the custom damage effect will also trigger the "unit takes damage" event, so you would need to check the damage source too, if this is an ability that will be on multiple units

I remember blizzard saying they were going to add a trigger for this... Are you sure they have not already?

theres only "play effect on unit"
