    what does it mean by stack ? do u mean the more you spray the more they get hurt ? or do u mean the more they spray does the same damage but does it faster?

    No, it does not stack at all.

    Stacking damage means

    1 SpC = Y damage per second
    2 SpC = 2Y damage per second
    3 SpC = 3Y damage per second (Etc)

    easy enough to anser by experimentation


    seems it dont stack, you merely end up with another area of effect lastign for its own 10 seconds.

    ish

    He's asking this.

    Let's say you attack an area for 1 damage per second, and it lasts overtime.

    1


    Then you attack again

    1
    1


    and again

    1
    1
    1


    although you're "attacK" is doing 1...previous attacks still there also do one, so the last attack ends up with a total of 3 damage.

    no.

    stack: clouds damage overlaps with other clouds, like multipliers.

    I asked around the servers I play on, and most of them think that spore clouds don't stack.

    But when I have adrenaline, and I spray 4 spore clouds it seems that I can kill more marines.

    That's because they're always in the cloud. So, with 1 clowd, they could move away from it, but this time they stay there more because the area is increased. Also, as one clowd wears off, the other is still there, so it's doing continuous damage.

    I think spore does 8 damage per second.

    One cloud lasts for 10 seconds, therefore, if the damage did stack, marines would die in roughly 5 or 6 seconds in 2 sporeclouds provided they did not move out of the area of effect.
