 ====== Clouds and Lingering ======
+\\
 ----
 === Cloud effects (aka: Lingering effects) apply 1/3 of their listed damage several times per turn in the squares they affect. ===
-  * To be precise, they apply 1/3 of the listed damage to the squares they affect every 1280 ticks. Since a combat round (aka: turn) is 7500 ticks, a cloud can usually apply very slightly less than 6 times per turn. A cloud will trigger four times per point of Lingering listed on the spell, so each point of Lingering can also be thought of as making the cloud last on field for 68% of a round.
+  * To be precise, they apply ((listed damage+2)/3), rounded down, to the squares they affect every 1280 ticks. Since a combat round (aka: turn) is 7500 ticks, a cloud can usually apply very slightly less than 6 times per turn. A cloud will trigger four times per point of Lingering listed on the spell, so each point of Lingering can also be thought of as making the cloud last on field for 68% of a round.

 **Further Information:**
+  * Because clouds add 2 to the listed damage before dividing and rounding down, a spell with a listed damage of 1 will deal 1 damage instead of 0, a spell with listed damage of 4 will deal 2 instead of 1, so on and so forth.
   * Additional effects not part of the initial spell (aka: nextspells) are applied on a spell landing/being cast, lingering clouds will NOT reapply the nextspell every time they apply damage. Notably, this does effect ??Sulphur Haze?? and ??Freezing Mist??: they only apply their additional fatigue damage on the initial cast.
