I was just wondering what base spell people are using to make units fire more then one shot when they attack after learning the spell? Its used in lots of AoS type maps like Tides of Blood, and Rebirth of the Guardian.

I'm guessing they base it off Barrage (Steam Tank) and change targets to allow ground. Because when I played melee with humans, I upraded my tanks to have barrage and they shot 3 missiles at once.

Maybe there are only two valid units nearby. If it hits an archer, for example, put 3 archers next to the hero and test it out. You could have two valid units and an invalid one. That might be whats throwing you off.

1. About why when you set to 3 it hits 4...
- Because you have a main attack that your units does, so that is equal to 1+3 = 4

2. About why when you set to 3 but still 4..
- I dun know emote_sweat

Ok.... all of the units in the area are valid units... i have 5 of them... and the spell is set to target 3-5 units depending on the spells level. For some reason no matter what level it is it still only shoots out 2 arrows instead of 5. What am I doing wrong here?

It's a ridiculously buggy spell to edit. Check out the upgrade associated with it and that should help you out a little.

You need to uncap the damage limit and the damage per target, or try setting them at 0. It's probably the most vexing ability of them all...
