Firewall related question

[Ogodei]

Hello, I'm trying to recreate a skill from Diablo Hellfire which creates a defensive ring of fire around your character. I thought about using Firewall as base but I don't know how to change the way the flames spawn.
Can you help me with that?

Thanks a lot for your time!

Why not use the Nova/Frost-Nova Func and change everything to fire?

Thanks I tried it, but the firewall acts as a nova rather than stay up and protect the character :\

I've never played D1 before. Is this the kind of skill you want?

[Ogodei]

Yes! Thanks a lot It's very helpful!

You had the right idea, but there's a little more needed:

Use nova skill function, and the missiles released are (invisible) spawner missiles that only spawn the groundfire when they reach the end of their range. Essentially, frozen orb hit function, 1/1 do function. Turn collision mode off, and alwaysexplode on to 1. Also, the 2nd "increment" fields should be 64 (to only spawn 1 groundfire.) In the hitsubmissile fields, put your groundfire missile. Adjust the range of where the fire spawns by editing the range vs velocity settings (and acceleration) for the frozen orb based spawner missile.
