Help with Buffs

I do not understand buffs AT all. I made a spell called Imperial Armor based off of devotion aura and I changed all my tooltips etc. then I made a buff called Imperial Armor and bassed that off of the devotion aura buff as well. For some reason the buff shows up on units as Devotion Aura Level 3, not Imperial Armor Level (X). What am I doing wrong?

You can't make buff devotion lvl 3 ... your ability probably is lvl 3

Um, I don't know what Jacek is trying to say.

Did you make sure that you change the buff that the Imperial Armor ability is supposed to use to be your Imperial Armor buff?

It's a little known fact that you can set level-dependent information in buffs. However, they'll also auto-level, showing the level of the ability used to place the buff by default.

Are there any other devotion aura based abilities around?

Are you sure that there is absolutely no ability that uses the devotion aura buff?

Failing that, if it really matters, just change the ability name to devotion aura :P cosmetic detail anyway.

Check your custom ability. It has a data field called "Buffs". Is it pointing to the old buff (Devotion) or the new buff?
