[Spell] Skill Combo

[CrateMate]

Hi guys!
First post,
i'm just mucking around with the world editor.
and i'm trying to make a combo happen;

Skill 1
(searing arrows used as a melee) called Attack

Skill 2
Same as above, but called Special Attack.

Hero uses Attack (Skill 1) twice, then casts Special Attack (Skill 2). and causes a thunderclap from the hero at it's location.

How would i be able to trigger this?

Thanks for the help

P.S sorry, my forums skills aren't very good.

you use a variable to count the times Skill 1 is cast, for skill 2 you use only a dummy skill, and when it is cast, check via triggers if the Skill 1-counter is equal to 2 and then give the thunderclap ability to your hero (hidden slot) and order him to cast it. then reset the counter and remove the ability afterwards.

this is just a basic idea and may require some polishing. you probably want to track the variable and reset it also after a given time maybe? also if skill 2 costs mana and has a cooldown, it will still use the mana and go into cooldown even if the counter is not equal to 2.

maybe provide some more information around that

Okay.
i think i definitely need to take a step back and understand triggering and all it's words.
I've just guessed it all these years.
I really appreciate your post though, i have an idea of what your talking about, but probably couldn't put it together.
Regular triggering is GUI right?

yes regular triggering is GUI, maybe just start somewhere and post your progress, then we can help you from there

Try using this suggestions by @dtnmang

Just rework this trigger

Bonus Damage Every 3rd consecutive Attack

Using Bribe's GUI Damage Engine and Unit Indexer. This was for a map of mine.

With this trigger the unit with the "Inner Fire" buff will deal double damage on every 5th attack.
