Help on Diablo Spells

I'm working on my map, Madness!, and I'm kinda stuck deciding what skills to give the one and only Lord of Terror, Diablo. There are so many possibilities, but my imagination has drawn a blank for this guy... Can anyone help?

I'm not sure if I should give him fire skills, summoning, undead-like, or what...

Well Lucky for you Diablos skills arnt hard to remaster in wc3

Skill 1: Ensure with the bone cage graphics
Skill 2: Breath of Fire Not as wide range Possably change graphics to some red lightning
Skill 3: Passive 30% chance to do Cold damage
Ultimate: Warstomp with larger range more damage and no stun add Firegraphics

Thats if you change/make new skills if you want to use wc3s existing skills:

Ensure and Breath of Fire is all i can recamend

The fire ring could be done as a wide Warstomp with dummy flame graphics.
I think his "red lightning" ability will be the hardest spell to mimic.
Bone cage should be simple.. yet you need a custom graphic model for it.
Frozen Touch, well, like DaFox said... modify Orb of Lightning (new) to give him a chance to cast a modified single-target Frost Nova on attacking.

And remember, Uber Diablo has armageddon...

Thanks GreyArchon totaly forgot about Warstomp =P

I'm thinking Reincarnation as an ultimate, except not using the normal animation since it brings up a cross, and maybe the War stomp as a normal move. I'm also considering something like Chemical Rage, except named Terror's Rage.

Keep it as true to his original spells as you can. :) Chemical rage may work though. I remember DIablo dropping on all fours to reach high speeds and bash a barbarian or javazon all the way back to heaven.

bone graphics might be acomplished using the soul gem animation, it has hands comming out of the ground and grabbing at a soul and then dragging it under...

wat does armegeddon do?

Armageddon is sort of a very wide-area rain of fire, which hits only enemies. It is cast, and the armageddon moves ALONG with the caster, so it needs no channeling.. the armageddon falls constantly around the caster.

And... hands? Look like ribs to me.

Actually I belive the fire/lighting ball thingy is his best spell or most devestating IMO. My druid gets killed in one hit by it.

True. It's terrible. Does massive amounts of constant fire and lightning damage. With my limited editing knowledge, I can think of no base spell to re-create it.

It's chanelling, yet targetted as well. The caster stands still, but the area of effect changes over time and where the caster aims. Madness! Copieng this skill would be quite a feat.

Got Jass?

I don't use Jass(I don't know how to use it), but I'd be willing to learn how and use it in my map

So so far here are my thoughts for possible spells...

Diablo - Strength Hero

Finger of Death or Flame Lightning - Normal skill or Ultimate?
A powerful bolt of fire and lightning devastates the enemy

Terror's Rage (Chemical rage) - Self Targest Cast
Diablo goes into an incredible rage, increasing attack and movement speed

Tackle (name?) - Normal skill
Diablo runs towards an enemy, damaging and knocking them back

Frost Attack - Passive Skill or AutoCast + Mana Costing
Attacks enemy with frost damage

Armageddon - Normal skill or Ultimate?
??? Attacks the surrounding enemy units
I probably can use Locust for this, since Locust follows the hero, damages, and doesn't require channeling. What should I use for the model in place of Locusts?

Reincarnation - Ultimate?
'nuff said

cant u use the rain of fire art?

For a good armageddon look-a-like spell, try making a dummy unit follow Diablo around. This dummy unit would have a modified Phoenix Fire, but instead of the 'streams of flame' graphic, use the rain of fire buff graphic. Flaming rocks will fall from the sky.

is armageddon castable or passive?

Its Castable its a druid spell dammit

I dident know you needed to learn jass to edit skills =(
