Fart Clouds: How do they work?

[elyktsorb]

Seriously can someone tell me this? Sometime I can throw boogers through them, sometimes I can't throw boogers in the same lane as them without them activating. Sometimes I can attack the lane next to the one the Fart Cloud is in, sometimes when I do they still come at me.

Are fartclouds just random, are they specific to the enemy that uses them?

The way they're supposed to work is they only activate when you attack an enemy in the lane they're on. Boogers should be safe, and I'd guess the reason they sometimes activate is if you have the trinket that makes your boogers deal damage. As for attacking the lane next to them...that I'm not sure about, either it's a bug or you have some other effect triggering it, like you set up an attack fly in a lane and forgot maybe.

See the boogers in lane, I don't have damage on them when it happened, I've had a fly in lane and the fly in lane has never triggered the fart cloud if the fly was there before the cloud. And as for adjacent, I quite honestly can't remember what my loadout was, but all I know is the clouds were coming when I clearly only hit a lane next to where they were.

That's strange then, if what you say is true, I assume it's a bug. Odd you're having so many issues with the fart clouds though, since for me they've worked consistently the whole time.

also sometimes damage that kills the last enemy won't trigger the fart cloud but sometimes it will?
also there's a visual glitch with the worms that fart when damaged and the "enemies may take damage when they move" trinket where the fart is halfway between lanes so you can't tell where is safe

I believe there is a bug when pertaining to the "next lane" fart cloud attacks. I've noticed that if an enemy drops a fart cloud and moves lanes and is subsequently attacked and killed it triggers the cloud. Same as a bone ult. If the ult kills an enemy in a fart cloud lane the cloud won't trigger immediately, but instead at the end of the turn.
