Is there any way of attatching unit-specials>abomination explosion to a unit?

Is there a way of making it a buff, and then have an abilty (with no icon) that does nothing but enable the buff??? thanks for the help.

Use the trigger action- attach special effect to unit. Browse for the abomination unit special animation thing in that. There is a condition for a trigger, Unit has Buff. I don't quite understand what you mean though, but what I think you want is a passive ability that does nothing, a dummy evasion say. Then do a trigger that when it meets a certain event, it adds that ability. Then another trigger, periodic time trigger, If unit (set a variable for the unit that just got the ability) has buff (the custom buff u made for the SFX) then an action, Create sfx on unit. Think thats it. :**

I think you might have misunderstood.

I just want an ability like immolation. immolation puts the buff (a firey ring) around the DH's chest when enabled. I want an abilty similar to this, except it is always on and the ring buff would be changed to a different buff(blood). I dont know how to do this or what things should have buffs on them... any ideas?

Ohhhh. Make an ability based off permanent Immolation (unit ability), then look at the buffs that it has, find them in the Buffs/Effects section, make a new 1 based off all the old permenant immolation buffs, switch the models, then switch the new buffs with the old ones, and done!

Just create special effect on the unit.

Special Effect - Create special effect on (Unit) attached to chest.

or something like that.

If the effect disappears just keep creating with a periodic event.
