What do you mean by word? Also, check to be sure you can target those types of units. I've seen devour used as a hero spell before, so I know its possible.

Well, you know, it helps to, i dont know, give information about it? We can't read your mind. I thought you would've learned that after the Water Wars thread.

What have you tried? What did you change? Did you just put devour on a hero and assume it to work? You're offering absolutely no information, therefore, we can't help you until you do.

Have you checked the "Devour Cargo" ability thing? I'm PRETTY sure you need a Cargo ability...

That's probably it. Your best bet would be to check out a Blizzard-made unit with Devour, and see if it has a devour cargo ability. (I'm 99% sure Red Dragons have devour)

And please, for the sake of all things decent, type coherently. I'm tired of people using "u" and "ur" in place of "you" and "your/you're". It drives me nuts and encourages me not to help the person posting.

so I should use the Devour (Cargo) and not Just Devour?

Ok, lemme lay it out for you. You seem to be incapable of problem solving and figuring things out.

GET THE DEVOUR ABILITY.
GET THE DEVOUR (CARGO) ABILITY
PUT BOTH ON THE UNIT
MODIFY THE DEVOUR ABILITY TO YOUR SETTING
TEST

Sheesh. If you can't figure it out from here, I will refuse to help you. You did the same exact thing with the Water Wars gameplay thread. People literally handed it to you on a sliver platter, and you didn't get it. You need to figure out how to solve things on your own, and figure things out through trial and error. We are not your slaves, we are not your personal help file.

I don't mean to be cruel... but is this Mr. "Water Wars - Submerged doesn't work for me"?

darkwulfv
Yeah, that's him. Check the threads he started.

Yup, it's him...

Hahaha, I'd like to see the link to the thread that "Water Wars" posted, It seems like its going to give me a laugh or two. It amuses me when people act like this and they don't understand it at all. (except when I have to answer their questions...)
