Cloud Cone
Version 0.15: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
| This spell blasts the area near the caster with various destructive clouds. At low power, the most lethal clouds the spell can create are noxious fumes; as power increases, this gives way to roaring flames, freezing vapours, and poisonous gas, and at the highest tiers of power even stronger clouds become available. |
Cloud Cone is a spell that fills a cone-shaped area in front of you with clouds, with higher spell power determining the nature of the clouds produced. Cloud Cone is only castable via a rod of clouds, so its power is derived from the player's Evocation skill.
Possible clouds produced by this spell are:
- Thin mist (harmless, no effect)
- Rain clouds (harmless, no effect)
- Noxious clouds (confuses the target)
- Fire clouds (deals fire damage)
- Freezing clouds (deals cold damage, slows cold-blooded enemies)
- Poison gas (deals poison damage, inflicts poison)
- Negative energy clouds (deals negative energy damage, inflicts draining)
- Acidic fog (deals acid damage, inflicts corrosion
- Thunderclouds (deals electricity damage, more effective against flying foes)
