Bloodlust growth without bloodlust

I want to make my hero growth with one of his skill just like when he is the target of bloodlust. Only thing is, I can't base it off bloodlust, I need the roar skill, because of the %dmg bonus and armor bonus.

I cannot find it in the caster art. I also tried to change the size with Animation - Change size, but it does it in one shot and does'nt provide a glow. Anyone know if it's doable ?

My suggestion? Make a dummy bloodlust with no bonuses, just the size change. Make it cost no mana, so on and so forth. When the real spell is cast, have a dummy unit cast the bloodlust on your unit, and tada! Size change.

Or (if you're using JASS) use a repeating timer that scales the unit x% every iteration.

Don't over complicate it Pyro. My method is easier, requires less knowledge of triggers, and is less brain-confussling. Your method is workable, but not as practical.

Oh you shaddup or I'll edit your posts :D

You are, however, correct.

ohhhhh, congrats on that =D

Aye. I feel special, Earth-Fury.

[offtopic]Shame shame, no [offtopic][/offtopic] tags! Thats -1 rep for you young man! [/offtopic]

But seriously. Go with my method, less room for error.

If you need it for a group of units, let me know and I'll tell you how.

We definitely should have [offtopic] tags. Or at least [spam] tags....

Actually.
A custom bloodlust might not be the best idea.
Say for example you use bloodlust elsewhere and the buffs might override?

There's nothing wrong with triggering it when necessary.
The native you should use.

It can also be done in GUI if need be.

If he isn't going to be using Avatar/Magic immunity, couldn't he change it so spells/magic goes through magic immunity (I think its in gameplay constants, not sure), and give/remove a dummy avatar?

I tried with Avatar, but the model I use for the hero, Ancient Protector, Turn into his rooted version instead of just growing.

Also, I tried giving the bloodlust buff to the roar ability and he does'nt grow. I guess there is an hidden animation in bloodlust ?

Nonono, you need to trigger a dummy unit to cast bloodlust on your hero, not just give the buff. The buff does nothing to a unit, just adds SFX and a marker to show the ability is affecting the unit.

But if another hero with a skill based off of blood lust casted the spell on the hero, he would be buffed indefinately, so the only way to go would be triggered.

Huh? I don't get what you're saying. Why wouldn't my method work?
