-'''Corpse Rot''' is a level 4 [[Necromancy]]/[[Air Magic]]/[[Poison Magic]] spell which grants the Rot status effect to the caster for a short time. Nearby slain enemies will be converted into clouds of [[miasma]] surrounding the caster for as long as the associated Rot status effect persists. Any living thing which enters these clouds will suffer [[drain]], [[poison]], [[slow]], and take damage. Most enemies who aren't immune will try to avoid this, so the spell can be used to block off corridors much like [[Conjure Flame]]. The cloud can be created on top of an enemy if it is adjacent to the caster when the spell is cast.
+'''Corpse Rot''' is a level 4 [[Necromancy]]/[[Air Magic]]/[[Poison Magic]] spell which grants the Rot status effect to the caster for a short time.
 Each slain enemy in sight will be converted into one cloud of miasma, which will be randomly distributed among the adjacent tiles and last 2-9 turns. Additional slain enemies over the number of available tiles will still rot, and create an additional layer of miasma.
 ==Strategy==
-*While this spell is unlikely to wipe out any powerful enemies, hitting an entire group with guaranteed slow and poison can be very helpful, granting you additional turns to safely kite enemies or the opportunity to flee entirely.
+While this spell is unlikely to wipe out any powerful enemies, hitting an entire group with guaranteed slow and poison can be very helpful, granting you additional turns to safely kite enemies or the opportunity to flee entirely. Though this is a powerful effect, many enemies are able to pelt you with ranged attacks, while you risk boxing yourself in.
 *If you are short on fodder to slay, [[Kiku]]'s Unearth Wretches ability can provide improved coverage. If you are not immune to miasma, beware the additional chance of boxing yourself in.
 *Clouds will never be formed on closed doors. You can use this to provide yourself a guaranteed escape route.

 ===Desirability===
-With its triple school training and medium spell level, this spell requires significant investment for otherwise a middling supportive effect at most. Miasma is a powerful cloud type, but many enemies will prefer to stay out and pelt you with ranged attacks while you box yourself in. In the late game, many monsters are immune to its effect. Considering the vast quantities of necromantic spells available to the player and the scarcity of [[spell memorization|spell slot]]s, this spell has high competition.
