I am quite new to the sc2 editor and I am attempting to make an ability that gives units inside the area of effect a temporary poison attack.
At first, I thought I would just add a behavior buff to all friendly units in the area that would apply a poison effect to their weapon, but I realized I could not add an effect to an already existing weapon mid game. All I could do is switch the weapon out for a new one, and since that would force me to make a separate weapon for each unit, I don't feel its viable (especially since I plan on making a few variations on this ability and each one would require a separate weapon.)
How can I apply a poison effect to enemy units from allied units standing inside an area of effect zone? I can only assume I'm missing something basic.

Use a Buff with a damage response on Attacker.

@DrSuperEvil Exactly what I needed. Thank you!
I was under the impression that Attacker triggered when my unit attacked something and not when something was attacked by it.
