Corrosive Cloud

Corrosive Cloud is a power skill which releases a gas cloud that inflicts bleed and poison to enemies within it.

Details

• Special Effects:
  • Releases a red gas cloud at the player's location for 15 seconds which periodically inflicts stacks of bleed and poison to enemies within it.
    • The bleed and poison effects each deal 8 base DPS per effect for 4 seconds.
• Tags: Poison, Bleed, NoDamage, UnlockInPublicEvent
• Legendary Version:
  • Forced Affix: Double Stack
    • "Applies 2 stacks of damage over time effects instead of 1."

Synergies

• The Corrosive Cloud causes bleeding and poison, satisfying the critical conditions for Sadist's Stiletto, Barnacle, Leghugger^TQatS and Hemorrhage^RotG.
• The Corrosive Cloud can be used with all other sources of bleeding (eg. Sinew Slicer and Blood Sword) to inflict the five bleeding stacks necessary for blood bursts.
• Since Corrosive Cloud is a power, and not a deployable trap (despite behaving similarly to deployables), cooldown reductions (eg. Instinct of the Master of Arms and Heart of Ice) can be used to create multiple instances of it at the same time, in the same spot.

Notes

• Since the Corrosive Cloud causes bleeding and poison, it synergizes with the "Bleed Damage" and "Poison Damage" affixes which may appear on other items.
• The actual range of Corrosive Cloud is slightly smaller than the visual effect would imply. As such, enemies can be on the fringes of the cloud without being afflicted by it.
• Instead of increased damage with higher gear levels, this skill grants passive damage reduction to the player.
• Corrosive Cloud is unique in that it can only have a maximum of 4 affixes on the skill no matter the tier.
  • Because of its tags, it can only get 3 non-starred affixes at the same time:
    • Lightning AoE.
    • Ammo back on use.
    • "Oil on Use" or "Fire on Use", which are mutually exclusive.
