Rod of clouds

Version 0.14: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

Evoking the rod of clouds casts Cloud Cone at your target. At low evocations skill, this rod frequently conjures simple smoke, but it can occasionally be very powerful. With high skill, its random nature can still make it useless (conjuring negative energy against undead), but it can be also be devastating (poison against insects, thunderstorms against most creatures, acid against almost anything.)

The long duration of summoned clouds typically means that you'll need to move if you want to try for a different effect against a given set of creatures, as the fight is likely to long since be over by the time the air is clear.
