[Solved] Single-Target, AoE damage

[SenPie69]

is it possible to turn a single target ability to AoE without triggers? i tried using the dummy Storm Bolt and Hurl Boulder and changing the area of effect from 0 to desired number, but it doesn't do anything.

im posting this aware it can be done via trigger and other ways but im asking if its possible with just the numbers and base spell only
im trying to achieve the stun of sven from dota universe, a single target but aoe damage without using triggers

Why would it be important to make this work without triggers?
You might get away with using 'acid bomb' - a single target ability that deals aoe damage in periods.

the only real way with out triggers would be to use a spell thats already aoe and changing the effects to what u need instead.
the only thing i can think of that has aoe stun like storm bolt would be inferno so base the ability off inferno set the summoned unit to dummy thats invis with a 0.01 spawn time dont use 0 as this will make the spawned unit permanent


edit: although inferno is ground target not single target:/

Actually i forgot to set this as solved, what A]mun said already met my requirements, sometimes i dont want complex spells to do trigger stuffs
thank you for the reply though~
