1. How do i create a mass stormbolt?
Example: Create 5 dummy unit and order it to cast on nearby enemy units. Each stormbolt will target a diff enemy unit, same model or maybe diff model. So it will hit 5 enemy units at a same time with stormbolt.

2. How do i count chances or percentage using triggers?
Example: Something like evasion, enemy attacks will miss sometimes. But how do i do that in trigger?

3. How do i create a spell like cantrips in Keys of Sealing (KoS)?
Example: You will need to see the map. Play as Orc and choose Loremaster. If you don't have that map, Download it now.

4. How do i create a spell like white spell book in FinalFantasy Legacy?
Example: I hope FF_Behemoth will explain to me. I used Cecil the White Knight.


If all the questions that i asked can be answered, i'll give credits in my upcoming project to whoever that helps me.
I hope that all this can be answered and explained in a tutorial map.
Thanks.

1. It sounds like you have the basic concept of what you need. What part do you need clarified?

You need to make a manacost-less, cooldown-less, and massively-ranged Storm Bolt spell.
Add it to a modelless, shadowless, invulnerable unit.
When the triggering spell is cast, create the unit, and order it to cast storm bolts at units around the target of the triggering spell until you're satisfied.

for making a percentage to miss...

pick a random number between 1 and 100

if number is less than the given %chance you want then run the trigger, if not then do nothing...

so say 15% chance to miss

15/100 times the number will be between 1 and 15, and 85/100 times the number won't be, so the trigger won't run. I hope that answers your second question.

Can you explain question 3 a little more?

I am lazy as many others. We are more than happy to help but going into a map to see what you are talking about just isn't in me... unless I get really bored

#4 there is a item called spell book, change that into a hero ability and add whatever spells in there that you want.. (the spell inside the spell book must be a unit/item ability)
