Description
A bank of heavy yellowish green, poisonous fog rises up, slaying weak targets within the cloud while inflicting on stronger targets 1d4 Constitution damage and 2d6 acid damage plus an additional 1 acid damage for every caster level (no max caster level). Successful Fortitude save reduces the Constitution and Acid damage by half. This fog obscures sight, giving all creatures in the fog concealment (attackers have 20% miss chance). Creatures immune to poison are undamaged by this spell.
Notes
- Creatures with 3 or less Hit Dice die instantly, no save.
- Creatures with 4, 5 or 6 Hit Dice must succeed on a Fortitude save or die.
- Creatures with 7 or more Hit Dice take 2d6 acid damage plus 1 damage per caster level and 1d4 Constitution damage every 2 seconds. Constitution damage and Acid damage is halved on a successful Fortitude save.
- Creatures immune to poison are undamaged by this spell. This includes all purple-named; however many red-named do take both acid and (up to 10 points of) Constitution damage from Cloudkill provided they don't otherwise have poison immunity via their creature type. All elementals, undead, plants, constructs and oozes are undamaged by this spell.
- The concealment portion of the spell affects all enemies, including red and purple named.
- Cloudkill is a useful spell to use against most raid bosses as it's 20% concealment bonus does work on purple named. Though it won't deal any damage due to bosses' poison immunity, its long duration and useful debuff portion makes it a very desirable spell.
- Cloudkill does not have any initial tic like Wall of Fire. Enemies must remain it in for at least 2 seconds for it to deal damage.
- Bug: Despite the in-game description, there is no current maximum caster level for Cloudkill.
- Metamagics Empower, Maximize and Extend do not apply to Cloudkill. (This is very unusual as Empower and Maximize apply to almost every other damage dealing spell in the game.)
