if i use a Corrosive Elemental Relic, will it boost Cloud Kill ?

I don't actually know. However, in my mind, I think it does, so I always default to a Corrosive Bone for that reason. (I'll swap out the Corrosive one if I'm doing something that specifically benefits from the fire or shock bone) (... or ... if I remember *cough*).

I'm sure someone here knows the real answer though.

Lore Cyphre or Zoot maybe.

thanks Nakos. i'll give it a try and let you know.

Cloud kill deals corrosive damage, relics will boost all corrosive damage. However that skill is complete garbage and should always be skipped.

Complete garbage that Cloud Kill should always be skipped.

It used to be an underpowered skill, but it was buffed and now varies from OP early game to very useful late game. At the very least it applies corrosive DOT to UVHM enemies which stops their shields from regenerating. It is now a no-brainer choice.

Nothing outside of bosses last for more then 1-2 seconds if you play standard Siren which means their shield wont recharge not like they recharge when you normally play the game since u are always hitting stuff.
As far as I know the only buff to cloud skill was in the community patch with is a unoffical pathc.

Cloud Kill was buffed in the last official patch and now it harms enemies even at OP8. A Corrosive Bone of the Ancients will make it stronger.

what exactly is a standard siren? Cloudkill is a must have for nearly any build at any point in the game since the patch last year. I can confirm that a corrosive bone does boost cloudkill. Cloudkill with lifetap is such a powerful combination you dont have to resort to "standard siren" builds like beehawking

No clue what you are on about, last offical patch was in like 2015-2016 and neither 1.5-1.8 had any changes done to cloud kill so please provide a trustworthy link of this so called offical patch of yours.

Not falling for your bait, troll.

Anyone skeptical of cloud kill can load up the game and see for themselves how much damage it does, or see it on youtube.

No its not, the patch notes has no information regarding any buffs to cloud kill in the last 4-5 patches.
The only offical change to Siren was a bug where enemies could be healed by rockets if near a siren using restoration.

Im still waiting.
