I found something interesting about Miasma. Maxing out power duration does NOT increase the total damage of Miasma. Yes, it will make the ability last longer, but the ammount of damage that is dealt per tick is lowered. How do I know this? I have Blind Rage (Rank 7 - +72% damage), Focus (Rank 5 - +30% damage) and Fleeting Expertise (Rank 5 - -60% duration) installed on my Saryn. I also have Chlora helm equiped. I am dealing about 2k damage each tick! There is no way that Blind Rage and Focus alone would increase the damage that much. Fleeting Expertise's real effect on the ability is +60% damage and -60% duration.

Power duration mods have a similar effect on Ember's World on Fire as well.
