Change for Faerie Fire

I know this is something minor but it confuses alot of people and me at first, the effect it says when its on a critter says "and can be seen by titan" its confusing because people think titan can see that critter now and kill it and its annoying when you're a faerie.

And to get something cleared up too, can titan see that faerie fire is on a critter cause they all walk past it and don't kill them and also it says on the ability when used on critters it says "but can also be used on critters for an extended period of time" how long is that time?

-Thanks

Man, that first part was hard to read, but I think faerie fire lasts a few minutes on critters. Also I'm not sure what the complaint is, are you just saying you do not like it when noobs kill a critter that you cast faerie fire on?

the complaint is when you cast fae fire on a critter everyone one is like whats this thing flying around the crab ill go see what it does so when they check the buff it says "and can be seen by titan" in the buff so they're like well wtf why would you not kill the critter if titan can see it I think its like an editor mistake or it should not be worded that way

W/E might as well correct it, it takes 1 second. "The effect is visible for the Titan." Or something similar

It doesn't mention the Titan at all. It's the default WC3 tooltip for Faerie Fire.

The enemy is the one who cast the spell

The builder is the enemy. Critters are not on your team. I don't understand how this is an issue? To expand on this you can't cast faerie fire on friendly units. Only enemies. Hense the tooltip is correct. What's the problem?

That didn't happen because he faerie fired it. People kill the birds 24/7. I kill them 24/7 regardless of faerie fire. It's not an issue. Like, at all lol.

Sigh. As usual, ShadowZz not seeing the point. The point is that the tooltip is easy to be misunderstood.

In this scenario, the crab and birds are the "ally" and enemies of these critters are the builders and titans. The titan should be unable to see critters under faerie fire, whereas all builders/observers should. Therefore, all you need to do is replace "enemy" with "builder's team" or something similar.
