2 - I don't see the problem here. Just create a custom spell based on Summon Bear, or some spell like that.
3 - Create a custom spell based on the Lightning Orb's ability (Item Lightning Damage I believe). Just change the effect ability.
4 - Here is a tuturial. He's actually using chain mana burn as an example: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/...ls-279/how-make-chain-spell-gui-version-7015/
5 - Sounds a lot like the Faerie Dragon's standard spell. Check it out.

I'll think about number 1 and 6. They are a bit harder than the rest (if not impossible, like the max life bonus for each unit).

#5 - You can use Mana Flare as the base spell, it works the same way.
#6 - WHAT is the CONDITION for the damage taken ? For the last 10 seconds? Current % of HP converted to MP? HOW...?

Healing Aura-- grants life bonus and life regeneration (%) to nearby friendlies
Call of the Basilisk-- summons mighty Basilisk to attack, skills improve by level
Xavier's Righteous Heart-- 25% chance to release healing wave on friendlies, chain lightning damage to enemies
Chain Mana Burn-- damages based on mana damage to nearby foes
Spell Disruptor Ward-- spellcasters take damage when they cast spells
Arcane Gift-- Restores mana based on damage taken

well here is a pretty detailed explanation of what you have to do for these spells

Healing Aura - use unholly aura with a specific buff then make a periodic trigger that if they that buff give them the 'item life bonus ability" with the levels you need.

Call of the Baisisk - Have your Ability bassed of summon water elemental
and make a unit calls basillisk and copy and past it for each level and give each one the abilitys you want

Xavier's Righteous Heart - 25% chance on what getting attacked,attacking or casting a spell. what ever it is create a dummy unit to cast a healing wave on a nearby ally and a chainlighting on an enermy

Chain Mana Burn - you going to have to trigger the whole spell with a dummy unit useing mana burn on each unit it bounces to

Spell Disruptor Ward - bass the spell off serpant ward but make the unit spawned your ward and give it the mana flare ability and when created trigger it to cast mana flare

Arcane Gift - you will have to get a damage detection system and detect the damage taken then give the mana that is damaged to the owner of the ability

I've made the Spell Disruptor Ward

"Call of the Basilisk-- summons mighty Basilisk to attack, skills improve by level"

this is best using 'summon ability' and it would be better if you put it in the heroe's ultimate ability like doom & avatar...

"Arcane Gift-- Restores mana based on damage taken"

you can do some sort of like this...this is only a pattern, if the level of the ability goes up then the mana will go up like 15/30/45...

• Events
  • Unit - A unit is attacked
• Condition
  • Unit - Attacked unit equal to YOUR HERO
• Actions
  • Unit - Add (15 MANA) to YOUR HERO

He wants to RESTORES MANA BASED ON DAMAGE TAKEN, not a formula, it's logic

#7
He wants to RESTORES MANA BASED ON DAMAGE TAKEN, not a formula, it's logic

I see...well, this will do the trick...see map also...

• Damage
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • ((Attacked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Trigger - Add to Mana Restored <gen> the event (Unit - (Attacked unit) Takes damage)

• Mana Restored
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Set mana of (Attacked unit) to ((Mana of (Attacked unit)) + (Damage taken))
    • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads (String((Integer((Damage taken))))) above (Attacked unit) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
    • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
    • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 120.00 towards 120.00 degrees
    • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 2.00 seconds

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Is attacked

I thought that this event occurs BEFORE actual damage was dealt, am I wrong ?
You can abuse this by spamming 'S' button ?

EDIT: Well, I don't have the right statement, but I do heard that this info, once upon a time . . .
