[Spell] Trying to make a passive spell, help

[flyinganton]

Hey guys.
I'm trying to make a passive spell that looks like this:

5% chance when hit: gain 10% damage + 5 armor for 10 seconds.

So far i have created a dummy with that ability, but how do I make the 5% when hit in my triggering? So far it looks like this:

Event: Unit - A unit is attacked.

Conditions: (Attacked Unit) Equal to (hero) <gen>

Actions: ?

Can anyone point me in the right directions? Im new to triggering.

if Random number between 1 and 100 <= 5 then

Integer comparison.

 

[flyinganton]

Okay, do i have it right so far then?
And could you maybe explain the integer comparison?

Oh, and i still need to make the dummy buff my hero.

It is correct, except I'd use integers not reals. You randomize a value from 1 to 100. You check if the number is less than or equal to five. There are five numbers out of 100 than can be less than or equal to 5. 5/100 = 0.05 -> 5%.

Thanks for the links and the help so far I didn't know this 'link-trigger-feature'.
Here's what it looks like now. I tested it and it works just fine.

I have just one more question: My dummy unit can't use custom abilities?
Ex:
My ability is based on Inner Fire, so instead of making a new Inner Fire ability, i just changed the original one (so that it only lasts for 10 seconds). Is this the real way?

• Vrede Passive
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • (Attacked unit) Equal to Rørboss 0008 <gen>
    • (Random integer number between 1 and 100) Less than or equal to 5
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Create 1 Dummy Rørboss Passive (Custom Campaign) for Player 1 (Red) at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing 0.00 degrees
        • Unit - Add a 1.50 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
        • Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Human Priest - Inner Fire Rørboss 0008 <gen>

You can copy-paste the original ability and edit it. The order the dummy to use the custom ability by giving the order of the original ability.

Ah okay. So even though it is ordered to use Inner Fire, it uses the ability it already has (which in this case is my custom-made Inner Fire).
Thank you for the help
