Alright alright, cool down, I was just stating a possibility; alot of abilities that are in % use values between 1.00 and 0.00 and I was asking if you made sure this wasn't the case. I'm going to bed now, I hope you figure it out.

Perhaps it is a small bug in the World Editor or something. Anyway, it is still a beta-patch ;)

Anyway, I'm gonna follow your lead Dre, I'm going to bed too :D

Make sure you have the option to use the Melee Patch data selected under map options or some such (sorry; I don't remeber exactly where) or else the data used will not be up-to-date. Have you tried using the Shift-Edit on the property? This might allow you to cancel out the bug as it lets you impliment greater then normal values. Hope this helps!

Hmmm... Linkmaster tells me that his defend deflected all the time and that people were flaming about how it did it so much. Perhaps it is glitched and works for him, but not every one. I can't really say because I'm an Orc player, so I use predominately melee and don't have defend. Also, Lord Vexorian, the game needs to be balanced or else every single melee game will have firelords and every other rigged unit. For those of us who play melee, this would be most unpleasurable. And finally, this is one of my reasons for not using advanced editors: Blizzard makes new patch, all of us with the normal editor can still use it perfectly while the 'advanced' editors suffer from having to wait for an update or somethimes even have to be removed if no one is working on the project anymore.

Those cheap ********s!! Early on it was bad enough, but no damage was really done... but now...

Doesn't a spell forcing units to exploding on death seem a bit familiar? (Ominous Horizons)
Or a Volcano? (NC:RotD, Ominous Horizons, many others)
And, above all, goblin riding a large, dumb creature? (Project ROR!)

This is sick... stealing ideas from their fans... *rambles on angrily*

None of those are original. Volcano was in Diablo II, alchemist was already in 1.16, just not useable without modification, and unit exploding on death has been used many times in other games and custom maps for WC3; off the top of my head, the big goblin mech thing in Wanderers of Sorceria exploded on death doing lots of damage to everyone.

Eh, what I meant was a spell that forced enemy units to explode on death, dealing damage to the targeted unit's allies.
The thing that I'm most disappointed about is stealing the ogre/goblin thing from Project ROR!, which I think I'm safe in assuming had the idea long before Blizzard.

They can just release this patch as normally, then release the balanced patch, no need for beta patches, I don't think anyone would preffer to play 1.16 than 1.17 beta , they could at least release the beta patch for other languages
