Poison Cloud Customization

There could be something for poison when creating a move where you change the duration/size of the poison clouds in exchange for more or less damage per tick

doesn’t the cloud scale of your size. I’ve noticed that smaller blasts dont even create clouds and the same probably goes for other spell types. so in a way we already have this. image

The problem is that the poisonous clouds last longer and are bigger the bigger the projectile size. This means there isn’t a point in using the smaller sizes for anything but raw damage. By being able to change the duration/size for damage per tick you would be able to have more damaging and smaller/shorter lasting clouds or bigger/longer lasting clouds for less damage. It’d bring more strategy into how you’d want to play.

eh if they added extra options like this for poison might as well do it for more magics

i mean poison has dot from the poisoned effect as well. having smaller projectile increases raw dmg AND the status DoT dmg, with the tradeoff being less viable clouds. The poisoned effect also lasts longer than other DOTs so i’d say it already has some strategy at play. Another thing is what waping is saying, if poison gets some special treatment it almost calls for the other magics to get something as well.

If u use a combination of small and large attacks u could maximize on strong, lasting DOT as well as the clouds.
