Unique healing abilities

[Rem]

i wish you luck but it might take you aeons =)

 

[Zepher]

Don't you mean eons (or ages) but anyway I don't think it should be that complex, were not talking about a whole new system here

 

[Rem]

yes. but i hav worked on triggers and some things which we think are really easy to accomplish are near impossible because of editor limitations, so if it can be done who knows how long it may take

 

[Zepher]

Well don't hold your breath

Good news, I was playing with it for awhile and finally got it to work, the dummy ability is "Hurl Boulder" and here is what the trigger looks like:

• A
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to --
  • Actions
    • Set Unit = (Casting unit)
    • Set TargetUnit = (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Wait 0.50 game-time seconds
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of TargetUnit) matching ((((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Unit)) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is A ground unit) Equal to True)) and (((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and (((Matchi and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Real = (Real + ((Life of (Picked unit)) x 0.20))
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Spells\Orc\FeralSpirit\feralspirittarget.mdl
        • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing ((Life of (Picked unit)) x 0.20) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
    • Unit Group - Remove all units from (Last created unit group)
    • Wait 0.50 game-time seconds
    • Unit - Set life of Unit to ((Life of Unit) + Real)
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of Unit using Abilities\Spells\Undead\VampiricAura\VampiricAuraTarget.mdl
    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Set Real = 0.00

 

[Rem]

wow, you actually got it to work =)

 

[Zepher]

I told you and this is just a very simple version, you can make it so that it detects the number of units around the target and drains a percentage depending on this, but I think 20% is fine, plus there's no way to kill with this ability since it will always take 20% whether the remaining hp is 10 or 10,000.

 

[Rem]

=)

what are all the conditions the units need to have to fit into the selected group?

 

[Zepher]

Belongs to enemy of the player = T
Is a ground unit = T
Is a structure = f
Is magic immune = f
Is mechanical = f
Is alive = T

I think that's it

Here's a concept for an offensive life-drain healer that I pulled out of my ass just now:

[Passive - Overflow]
When you overheal yourself through spells (healing beyond 100% hp) the overhealed amount is redistributed onto the most injured nearby ally instead.

[Life Vortex]
Activatable abillity similar to Immolation. The casting hero is healed based on the damage dealt, but it burns mana to have it on.

[Osmosis]
Sacrifices 10% of your current mana to damage the target enemy based on the mana consumed. You are healed for the damage dealt, if your hp is at a higher percentage than the target, the healing you receive is multiplied by 3.

[Reaper's Bargain]
Sacrifices 50% of your current HP and restores an amount of mana equivalent to the HP lost. If your hp is below 20% before casting, you will regain an additional 10% of your maximum mana.

[Ultimate - Soul Swap]
Switches your hp with the target ally and grants you invulnerability for a few seconds.

 

[ArchDuke]

Divine Radiance - Turns a hero invincible while restoring his hp over a 35 second period.

 

[noob]

Apple: multiply taken damage but restore all health in a very short time(probably put on an item for out of combat healing or for healing between two boss attacks when facing a slow attacking boss)

 

[Cespie]

Apple: multiply taken damage but restore all health in a very short time(probably put on an item for out of combat healing or for healing between two boss attacks when facing a slow attacking boss)

Isn't this just an easily abused version of the Healing Salve item?

 

[noob]

Isn't this just an easily abused version of the Healing Salve item?

Well it depends on cost also it can leave you vulnerable to surprise attacks.
Of course if it is as cheap as an healing salve it is broken but if it costs closer to 400 it is not a replacement.
(a huge part of why healing salve is so cool is a combination of having multiple charges and low cost)

 

[Zepher]

An ability based on the scroll of replenishment item that heals both hp and mana over time, but has a long cooldown

    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions

    • Set Unit = (Casting unit)
    • Set TargetUnit = (Target unit of ability being cast)
    • Wait 0.50 game-time seconds
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of TargetUnit) matching ((((((Matching unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of Unit)) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is A ground unit) Equal to True)) and (((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and (((Matchi and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Real = (Real + ((Life of (Picked unit)) x 0.20))
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Picked unit) using Abilities\Spells\Orc\FeralSpirit\feralspirittarget.mdl
        • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
        • Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing ((Life of (Picked unit)) x 0.20) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal
    • Unit Group - Remove all units from (Last created unit group)
    • Wait 0.50 game-time seconds
    • Unit - Set life of Unit to ((Life of Unit) + Real)
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of Unit using Abilities\Spells\Undead\VampiricAura\VampiricAuraTarget.mdl
    • Special Effect - Destroy (Last created special effect)
    • Set Real = 0.00

This is a great idea, my suggestion however would be to make it take away a percentage of the unit's health depending on the amount of units in the group. For instance if the group contained only 1 unit you could set it to take away 2/5 hp and for every additional unit it could take away something like (2/[4+x]) where x is the total number of units in the unitgroup.

 

[Lord Siler]

@Rem: Remember when we were working on the project and the final boss (The Goddess) had this special attack or ultimate or whatever you want to call it. I can't remember the name now but what it did was take all the damage the Goddess has taken (let's say the goddess has Remaining HP/Total Hp, then subtracts the remaining Hp from Total Hp and divides it by the number of the player's units and deals that damage to them. So lets say Y = Total Hp - Remaining Hp of the goddess, lets say the player has N units alive attacking the goddess, the ultimate deals Y/N damage to each attacking unit.

This concept can be used in reverse, where you have a unit that's essentially a tank with a weak attack but good HP and the ability heals each friendly unit around it by (The units total HP - Remaining HP/N) Basically instead of dealing Y/N damage, heal each friendly unit by Y/N.

I believe this is one of the most unique concepts I've contemplated so far.

 

[Rem]

omg Siler. its so nice to talk to you again <3 we gotta lots of catching up to do (do you still have your old chat sn btw

yes thats an great idea, Im glad you came back. I thought you wre so busy with school and life that you completely forgot about the hive & us

[cleavinghammer]

Campfire (Active): Creates a campfire at a target point. All units within 100 range of the target are burned and take damage, within 100-400 heal 2 HP/s, within 400-600 heal 1 HP/s.

 

[Ether]

• Exotic Light - On unit cast. 50% chance to heal the unit by 75/150/250 hitpoints and 50% chance to damage it 75/150/250 hitpoints.
• Yellow Stim Pack - Insta-cast. When used, the unit will heal up to its full hitpoints but life drains to death by -1.00 regeneration rate.
• Offering to the Naaru - Insta-cast. Kill the unit itself, causing spreaded AoE of healing to nearby friendly units by current hitpoints of the casting unit divided by number of friendly units caught within 1000 AoE.

Each time this unit is damaged by 100 or above, the orbs will suicide on enemy, dealing damage to it by 20/40/60. This unit is instantly healed by the same amount. The orbs are replaced in cost of 50 mana.

 

[Prince Aerrus]

Rebirth Flames - Summons a phoenix egg, if the egg stays alive for 15 seconds a phoenix is born, however rather than being a controllable summoned unit this phoenix ressurects up to 10 slain warriors and heals your troops while setting on fire all the enemy units

Healing ring - An item that heals the unit possessing it by 100 health each minute

Divine Blessing - Heals the caster by 250hp while healing all the units around him by 100, I would suggest giving this a cooldown of no less than 30 seconds or it'll be abused

 

[Lord Siler]
