The first is easy, simply use Impale but change the missile art to look like shockwave.
The second one is harder, don't know how to pull that off.
The third can be done with triggers - make an ability create 8 invisible (without a model) units at the hero's location that each cast shockwave at a different direction and then remove them.
The ultimate is easy aswell - in the "Buffs/Effects" tab in the object editor, click on the blizzard effect and change "Art - Effect" to include the rain of fire and moonsoon effects.

I don't think if these echo slam are bouncing shockwave, it's a fan of knives which has a shockwave missile that lock to target and will deals more damage with more enemies there, for it you can use trriger and I can make that 'echo slam'

But very sorry bouncing shockwave are out from my mind and so on my imagination

You know, shockwave is *non-unit-target* spell. How can it bounce? It moves to current location, the bounces.. where? I dunno.

vexorian?? i don't even know that name... I think you can bounce shockwave from each unit to other unit like chain lightning but the difference is this bounce deals damage to area line which mean if the skills bounce 5 times someone can get hitted 5, 4, 3, 2 or only 1 hit. Does this theory right??

Chain lightning only shows lightning anims and effects, if you want a bouncing shockwave or chain frost or a bouncing villager that rapes n00bs, well you can do it by using the Upgrade Moonglaives and giving it to a dummy unit that fires bouncing projectiles. I personally like to use locused Units as fake projectiles so I can have further control over them, such as bounce, added damage, slow effects and stuff.

yea, if you want to make it damage every enemy near the shockwave and bounce, you would have to use locust dummy units for a missile, and then check when it hits an enemy unit, this needs some knowledge about groups and stuff. For multi-instancability then it would have to be in jass.

Well, not exactly. You could do this spell without jass by using a dummy unit and storing it's amount of bounces as custom value. I have already made this spell in GUI for my map, and it works well too, so I know you don't need Jass.

Impale won't move a projectile properly, you'd have to add a projectile trigger.

Anyways, for the ultimate, just make a rain of fire, etc, that do no damage, and make dummies cast them when the caster starts the blizzard.

That's the easy way, there's a harder but better one, but that's the one I'd reccomend you use.

Purple you was right, the stun shockwave are work now, I just make an moving special effect from caster to casting target area... Easy and I never think for it...

The ultimate are running and the most best thing is the damage deals triple so its look like more true that deals 120!! once better u see 30!30!30!, doesn't it??

No more problem except bouncing shockwave

Bouncing Shockwave is pretty simple. Make a spell based from a unit-targeted, non-stunning ability. If the target is hit, immediately get a random unit X units of range within the target, and make a dummy unit positioned at the original target cast the spell. Add that bounce to a counter. Repeat until counter reaches max bounces.
