I'm having trouble with multiple period effects on the same persistent. I'm trying to make a Magic Missile like spell, that has 5 seconds channeling time, and every second it launches 2 missiles and deals damage. The only problem is that if I set all the 3 effects (2 launch missile + damage) on the same persistent, it will only proc 1 of these per time.

I tried lots of way to make it proc all those effects at the same time, but, didn't suceed.

So, you should make a Set effect that contains the 2 launch missile + damage effects. Then put that Set as the periodic effect on the Create Persistent effect. That should do what you want it to do.

I believe if it's the SAME effect, you may need to create a persistent effect (with period of 1 second and count of 5) that triggers another persistent effect (with period of 0 second and count of 2).

EDIT: I take that back. The Set effect does work, too. :)

@ProxyTooMuch: Go

Thanks guys Tried both ways and they works perfectly :)

You can actually make it trigger all of the desired effects, you just have to add multiple durations.

You would set it up as follows:

Period: 5 Duration: (1.0|0.0|0.0) Effects: (Missile 1|Missile 2|Damage)

Then you don't need a set. The idea is the persistent will fire them in order and by time, so if you only set one duration the other 2 effects wont fire.
