i found 2 glitches with this spell
#1- if you are in the midlle of a couter stike and the blade returns 2 u it creates a bunch of items around you
#2- If you throw a blade while antother blade is out the blade freezes.

Set BladeRealVar = (Angle from (Position of (Triggering unit)) to (Target point of ability being cast))

Would help on the angle of the unit's movement. since the hero does not always face the exact direction

I made the changes i was talking about here http://www.wc3sear.ch/?p=Spells&ID=510 you can dl it Great job Arksword i hope you like the changes i made. Blade speed increased with boomerang return effect. Just added item pickup so now the triblade will pick up one item and return it to the caster even tho by giveing it more inventory it could return more. Why add all this?? because i liked the idea and someone said they would like to make a zelda NES map and this would go great with it:)

I looked over these triggers that you wrote, and I don't see how that would make it make a loop like a boomerang. You just did the return stuff normal. And it already comes back the same speed, except it no longer bounces off walls, because it isn't suppose to. As for the fire, I only put that in there for fun. If anybody used this, they wouldn't have to do the fire. The spell is fine as it stands, good day.

Has a serious problem brought my computer to a almost complete halt after attaching a flame to the unit and then blinking around the map. Also the blade moves to slow. If it is a unit you could add a endurance aura to speed it up. Setting up a ark before it returns would be cool,
Now after all my comments Very nice work i personaly favor spells that dont use jass

Here please make these changes you will love the result

Fixed up to reduce the slight lag when the blade catches on fire, and fixed a lil bug that if you die while the blade is out, (never happened to me but I released that the blade woudln't be able to return if you died), it replaces the blade with the item form which you can pick up again.

silverbow
sick spell, i love it... great work ark, im givin this a 5/5 :D

It's an ultimate ability. Not to mention it only works against melee of course. You can always use blink also. I don't feel like messing with my triggers again and resubmitting, cuz it already works perfectly.
I haven't had time to do it. Just some spare time to make this. Sorry.

Its a good spell, but lower the chance of using Counter. I couldn't even get out of battle because the Counter was so frequently.

Well, if I saw this spell sooner, I'd have given credit to the original maker, but I havent seen one like this so, I'll just have to be a greedy b*tch and take the credit for myself :lol: .

A nifty little item spell. I doubt many people would use it, because it is very hard to set up all the walls for the bounces, so on and so forth, but I wanted to submit it anyways, just cause I thought it was very fun to use :D . Sometimes, the blade may ricochet oddly, or go out of bounds, but it always comes back to you, or atleast of the many many times I've tested it, it has come back to me. Nothing critical. Enjoy :D .
