How do you make spells like Lament Sorrow where multiple missles attack oppenents when the ability button is pressed?

I'm not sure exactly what you mean with 'multiple missiles attack opponents'. Could you explain that more?

Ok, the kind of spell i'm trying to make is kind of like barrage except it's activated like a stomp/slam spell. Does that help?

Well you could trigger it.

if you want to go non-triggered way:

create a spell called "lament sorrow" or whatever based off some summon spell
make it summon a dummy unit (check tutorials how to do dummy unit), set it's hp to 1 and life regen speed to -1.00. give it Phoenix Fire ability. should work

Search for Vexorian's spell factory map. It should include some system that allows you to easily create toggleable abilities.

Fan of Knifes seek out each unit indivdually. Just change the amount of targets to an infinite amount and the max damage to 999999 so it won't mess up. You can change your own missile art if you want (like Snowballs ^^)

Doesn't Fan of Knives attack all units around? Because I thought that he meant ability like Gorgon has in Dota. And I think there is a tutorial about making multiple shot with Barrage.

But always when Im doing multiple shot with it, the first shot always lasg like a hell.

Activated like a stomp/slam spell. (You need to click to order the unit to do the ability)

no chocobo is right, it just looks like it hits all units since fan of knives uses a wierd projectile, if you set it to a different one like an arrow or something you see it targets each unit.
