Just wondering if its somehow possible to change tooltips with triggers ingame.

Or is there any other way to change tooltips like..

set it to a special units health or something like

<Paladin 0004,HP> or <Paladin 0004,level>

so it can be changed ingame.
Code:
Hurls a fiery ball that causes 31 to <Paladin 0004,level> Fire damage and an additional 3 Fire damage over 6 seconds.

anyone can help me on this one?

You cannot change tooltips ingame, the method you suggested only works for data fields that are already loaded like 'A000'.

Yep, it has been repeated over and over. Tooltips cannot be changed mid-game. What you can do is create a clone of the ability with all the possible tooltips, then do a check for which ability to give the unit. However that's very tedious if you have 10+ possibilities.
