Do you mean your trying to make a spell's damage increase as you level it up? Well.. just go to the object editor, Abilities, and click your spell. Find F) Stats - Levels and make sure that it is above 1 so you can actually level the ability up. Next find:
Level 1 C) Data - Damage
Level 2 C) Data - Damage
and so on.. however many levels you set the previous value to. This is the damage your ability does each level.. you can edit it however you wish.

If this is not what you are looking for.. please give a little bit more information about your ability.

Well, I'll see if I can explain again except better. You basically need to say "Unit - Set life of (Target unit of ability being cast) to ((Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) - (4.00 x (Real((Level of YourAbilityHere for (Casting unit))))))" The four times the ability's level is so it will increase when the level of the ability does. When it's level 1, it'll do four damage, eight at level 2, 12 at level three, and so on. Ability level of ability for unit is an integer, so if your dealing with life, you have to use the Convert Integer to Real function. Is this Omnislash or is this something else? The action above will only work for a direct-targeting spell, so if it's more triggered like Omnislash, let me know. I hope this was a bit more helpful to you.
