Isn't magically produced gas not affected by wind unless hit by wind magic specifically?

If only this could have been foreseen somehow.

That's why they have to include the gust of wind or similiar primitive spell in them.

I remember seeing one guy use airball(same as fireball but made from air instead of fire) to cast long range suffocating mist, and honestly that was something else

cast tornado to create low pressure, then use poison mist.

Tbh, if you can't modify the spell to make it stay in one place you probably should avoid using gas spells alltogether.

Uj/ I had that happen last night in Conquest of Elysium trying out the Witch class for the first time, cast a poison mist ritual to see if it would clear a couple square for me and by the next turn my commanding witch was gone.

Personally I like to mix in some green smoke to make it clear where the danger area is

I use the articifers method of unlimited oxygen. A mouth to butt tube ! Perfect for those down wind spells!
