How it works

  1. Effect 1 is Persistent Area Aura (effect type 27). It applies aura type 3. Its base value is 225 per tick. It scales with 1 times spell power. Its area radius is 8 yards. It ticks every 2 sec, 5 times over the full 10 sec (1125 base in total).

What it does

Poison Cloud is a Nature spell with an instant cast, no range (it targets the caster) and effects that last 10 sec. When cast it leaves a persistent area effect on the ground in an 8 yard radius every 2 sec.
