So, guys, basically I have a storm blot which I want to make an explosion after impact. Only problem is I want the hammer to move slow, and when I use event - begins casting an ability, the explosion appears immediately - not after the hammer has hit the target.

How can I fix this ... please tell me.

Create some delay with wait...or better yet, with a timer.

Create another trigger which is initially off that goes off when a timer expires. Turn this other trigger on with the first trigger. Create a timer in your first trigger. When the timer expires, create a special effect for the explosion.

You may need to calculate the timer duration based on the distance between the target and caster, and the speed of the projectile.
