Duh
I think Hurl Boulder is listed as Thunderbolt for Creeps. Since its the same deal, they just gave it a different projectile art.

As for Defend, I dunno. The best you can do is make one of the 3 options a crippling effect so the player may choose to turn it off. Like Increased Speed, Increased Damage, but multiplied damage taken when hit with Piercing attacks. Or take down the damage to like 50%.

Do a search for Defend. This topic has come up before. There is something wierd about how Defend works.

yeah i read some other articles on defend most talk about how it can be seen as an issue order or string. And editing it seems limited so I ll go with duh's idea and use cripple although itll lack that cool defend posture i was going for :P

Well, you could rig a trigger to turn it off and remove mana the same way...
