[Help] Problems With Barrage

[Tide-Arc Ephemera]

Alrighty, I'm using the Barrage on my towers to let them attack multiple units/towers simultaneously but I'm currently experiencing some bothersome problems.

The way I was told Barrage would allow a unit to hit 1 + Maximum number of targets specified.

So, the level one tower should hit 2 units and the next level should hit 4. I set the maximum number of targets to 1 and 3 respectively, however instead of attacking 2 and 4 units, it's attacking 3 and 5.

What am I doing wrong?

Well looking from the numbers I have a feeling the "Maximum number of targets" in barrage is excluding the original attack.

You know one of those Blizz screw ups common in the editor.

I've fixed the 4-targets one by setting maximum targets to 2, however setting the other one to 0 did not work.

Hmm imma go do some testing now.

EDIT:I tried using a 2 maximum targets and found it works normally. However it seems to not function when the target is at certain angles form the attacker.

I have a feeling its due to adjacent units to the target being out of the attackers range.
Maybe extend your towers range abit and try if it works.

I also found that settings "Maximum Targets" to 0 seems to allow the attacking of infinite targets.

I extended the range to be 50 greater than the Barrage's range and there was no change.

I though the maximum target were at least 3, no matter how low you set the value.
It's kinda buggy...

Maximum targets : 0 == Infinite Targets
Maximum targets : 1 ~ 2 == 3 Targets
Maximum targets : 3 ~ n == n+1 Targets

That's what i know, no guarantee for being correct.

Argh, fudge this then. I'll lower the tower's damage by 4 and make the number of targets 3 and 5.

EDIT!
+Rep to whoever tried to help.

if i remember correctly using that ability u can hit 3-9 targets total. meaning u have to hit at least 3 but not more then 9

Barrage functions like this:

A unit gets its normal attack.
A unit gains 1 extra attack for having barrage.
A unit gains n extra attacks for n "Maximum Targets" except for 0, which means unlimited.

aka. Barrage can only have a minimum of 3 targets (1 normal + 1 for barrage and a min 1 for Max targets).
