This is the Mesmer's only DoTAoE skill. It creates a Chaos Storm (which looks like a bunch of swirling purple circles) around whoever your target is when you cast it. It will hit all foes adjacent to the location it is cast.
In PvE Chaos Storm is useful against spell casters standing in clusters. However, note that the spell will be detected as AoE damage by the enemy AI, so foes will try to move out of the range of effect. Skills that slow movement speed, especially AoE water snares can be useful here.
