I need to know some quick and easy information for you experts. I know that I could figure this out but it would take me some time so I decided to come to the forum and get quick answers. I have an Ice Tower - Obviously slows the enemy down using a frost arrow I have a flame tower - We want it to shoot enemies and keep them on fire giving them damage over time. If you could tell me how to use ice fire the way I want to properly, I would greatly appreciate it. Btw, we have Ice Arrow, Cannon, and Spray towers so I will need different arts with the same effects. Same goes for fire. Thank you. |

For the ice tower, give it the Nerubian Tower ability, for the fire, give it Flame Strike effect. [1401 post, w00t] |

1. Where is the Nerubian Tower Ability located? 2. I need the towers to have these abilities as passive abilites. Thanks for the input, if you could help me more, it would be greatly appreciated. =) |

Oh and I need the flames to stay on the people if that is possible. If there is a way to take the Flame Strike effect and put it on a passive ability and just have it to where it shoots a fireball but the flames stay on the ground, that would be awesome. |

Burning Oil or Liquid fire abilities have that damage over time thing. They are both passive abilites. Burning oil hits the ground though and i don't know if it can be changed to allow a unit buff. |

Whats weird is that one of the towers has burning oil already and it shoots the burning oil projectile but the ground doesn't ignite. And also, I am stumped on this Nerubian Tower Ability. I have been searching post after post trying to figure it out... I know there is an easier way of chilling the enemy. |

burning oil only works with artillery type attacks. Nerubian tower slows 1 unit Freezing Breath slows all units in an area effect. |

Thanks... I will change it to artillery if Liquid fire doesn't work. Well... 1 unit is fine but what I need is ICE to effect 1 person for the Arrow tower. For the Cannon, I need a splash ICE. For the Spray Tower, I need a Line spread to effect units in a certain radius. Mind you, ALL THESE EFFECTS NEED TO BE PASSIVE. btw, Where can I find the Nerubian Tower? |

I found it. But I still need help with the types of attacks I need to do. |

just make your own abilities and buffs. |

Alright, so you want Single unit effect ice, Area effect ice and line effect ice? Single unit - Use Nerubian Tower ability, Frost Attack Area Effect - Use Frost Breath (i think this is what its called) from the Frost Wyrm Line effect is harder. U need 2 custom abilities, one based off the new Orb of Lightning ability, one based off the neutral hostile spell "Breath of Frost" Make the orb of lightning spell have a 100% chance to cast the breath of frost ability and add 0 extra damage. Give the tower the orb ability (not the breath ability) and it'll cast it autmoatically on attack. |

Okay a new situation with the towers... I gave them all custom Cluster Missile Abilities but with Cluster Missiles you need to cast them manually. Now, I tried doing that Orb of Lightning (new) ability and gave it 100% Chance to cast the cluster missiles I wanted. I took off all the orbs art because I didn't want it to fire lightning or show an orb circling my towers. That is all I did, but it didn't work... still did the normal attack on the tower. Btw, the cluster missiles work because I casted them manually to test. OH and When I had the orb on the tower it showed the cluster missiles on the interface but it was greyed out. |

Looks like I am having the same problem as ChewwieTobbacca. :/ |

Cluster missles is an area effect target spell. Orb of lightning only works with single point target spells (Shockwaves, Direct Damages, Single Unit Buffs) |

An easier spell to use for the fire tower that targets a single unit rather than liquid fire is slow poison. All you have to do is change the buff so the poison looks like a flame, and if you want, make it not cause a slow effect. |
