Trigger for item to cause x chance

[Bob_Da_Builder]

How do i make an item to have chances to poison,stun,slow,etc an enemy?I saw in most map they have item that can do this kind of stuff but how do they do this?

Try adding bash as an ability to an item of choice.

I guess an ability based on Orb of lightning + your custom effect would do the job.

 

[Bob_Da_Builder]

ok this works BUT..i want to add effects like this

20 Chance to weaken the enemy damage by x amount within x seconds..anyone can solve this? i will +rep

Not possible with object editor work alone, I think.
There used to be a system in the spell section called "timed ability" which would make it easy for you.

You could try to make 2 custom abilities:
1) Based on Inner Fire, with negative damage bonus, and 0 armor bonus, having enemies allowed as targets.
2) Based on Orb of Lightning, with ability (1) in the ability field.

Not sure if it will work, but doesn't hurt to try

Okay the inner fire did not work because it has to be casted first to be applied but I did managed to get it done by using passive ability like devotion aura with negative value,BUT like i said i want to have X chances for it to occur

• Traits essence fel chance
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • ((Attacked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit - Add Weaken to (Attacking unit)

This work but I want to add chances for this "Weaken".

You have to add an If / then / else, with a Real condition "random number between 0 and 100 inferior or equal to [the percentage you want]".

Can you post the trigger,iv never touch this "real condition random number" stuff... +rep if it solves

• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • Si - Conditions
  • (Random real number between 0.00 and 100.00) Inférieur ou Égal à 50.00
  • Alors - Actions
  • Sinon - Actions

Sorry my editor is in French, but I think you get the point. In this example, the spell would have a 50% chance to trigger additional actions.

Okay imma try this out

Actually it will have slightly more/less than 50% chance due to 0 (or 100) being included in the set of possible numbers. The proof is that if you set the test to be "less than or equal to 0.00" it can still pass even though it is meant to represent impossibility. If you lose the equal to part then "less than 100.00" can fail when it is meant to represent certainty. Basically an "off by 1" error.

In this case I would recommend "(random integer between 1 and 2) less than or equal to 1". This would be correct as long as the probability distribution of the JASS random function is constant.
