Critical strike activates ona attack so none. You must use triggers:

Event
A hero learns ability
Condition
Learned ability = Critical Strike
Action
Special effect - create special effect attached to hand of hero




Art - Caster is art on caster when he summons the spell. Look on Roar, when casted, rings :) are made around caster

Art - Lightning Effects applies to lightnings in Chain Lightning, Spirit Link, Finger of Death etc.

Art - Target is effect on unit the spell is casted on

Art - Missile Homing Enabled is something with missiles following the target. I think it is that you select, either missiles explode at target point, or follow the unit. Anyways spell effect is applied to unit even if she runs

Art - Area of Effect - I think it is like Flamestrike burning but I'm not sure

Hope I helped a little

I used the trigger you gave earlier but the hero has metamorphosis as his spell, so when he uses metamorphosis, the effect will be lost even when he is back to his normal self.
Those explain for the "arts" helps abit :) Thanks!

Done :) Thanks.
I would like to ask 3 more questions:
- What is Maximum Pitch Angle?
- What is Maximum Roll Angle?
- What is the difference between them?

Pitch and Roll allow to flip doodads mostly. You can see on some units when run up the hill, they are a little rotated ;]. But I can't tell you the difference ;/

Pitch is in the y direction,
Roll is in the x direction
(or maybe other way around, it just depends on how you see the axis)

Entering a negative value on these thing will make your unit/doodad/dest face a certain direction.

On units these values work in degrees, on doodads in radian
