Update buff text [reforged]

Can I update a buff text for a specific unit?

How are you applying the buff? Because you could probably make a trigger that uses a Dummy unit to apply the buff, and have two different abilities with two different buffs.

Even if you can update the buff text by changing the string fields of the buff object itself with field natives (which I don't know is even possible), I don't think it would show the updated description on a unit until the buff was removed and reapplied. Such fields for abilities don't update until the ability is set to a different level and then back to the correct level, so I don't see this being any different.

Uncle's solution is probably the easiest, but it really depends on how many different buff text variants you need and how you're applying them.
