not 100% sure if this is the right place to post this but i'm relatively new here, i'm trying to make it so that you can cast thunder clap like you would cast blizzard or flame strike, how do i do this, without triggers preferably, thanks in advance :)

I think he wants to click an AOE and the thunder clap happens there.

I don't know that you can create that too nicely without triggering it. It should be quite an easy task really. Although I guess you could take a look at Earthquake but eh... it's not ideal.

Earthquake of course, i didn't think of that, it might work for what i want, thank you :)

so i tried earth quake and it hasn't worked, what are the triggers required for this, basically i want it so that the unit casts the ability and any units inside the aoe are stunned for a few seconds

Stun is mechanically very powerful as it interrupts channels.

The spell is for a custom orb in an altered melee map I'm working on. Basically, the orb lets you cast a stun, the AOE is set to 200 and distance is 500 and has a cooldown of 100 seconds, you get it from a level 18 creep, is this too overpowered? what's a good stun time, I currently have it set to 8 seconds for normal units and 6 for heroes? should normal units be 4 seconds and heroes 3?

I am confused...

You specifically asked for Thunder Clap (Mountain King)...
Thunder Clap
Slams the ground, dealing damage to and slowing the movement speed and attack rate of nearby enemy land units.
Level 1 - <AHtc,DataA1> damage, <AHtc,DataC1,%>% move, <AHtc,DataD1,%>% attack.
Level 2 - <AHtc,DataA2> damage, <AHtc,DataC2,%>% move, <AHtc,DataD2,%>% attack.
Level 3 - <AHtc,DataA3> damage, <AHtc,DataC3,%>% move, <AHtc,DataD3,%>% attack.

Then suddenly you are asking for a stun...

But thunder clap does not stun. It only slows movement and attack speed. Hence the correct solution would be Earthquake which does something similar.

Did you perhaps mean War Stomp (Tauren Chieftain)?
War Stomp
Slams the ground, stunning and damaging nearby enemy land units.
Level 1 - <AOws,DataA1> damage, <AOws,Dur1> second stun.
Level 2 - <AOws,DataA2> damage, <AOws,Dur2> second stun.
Level 3 - <AOws,DataA3> damage, <AOws,Dur3> second stun.
