"Poison Enchanted" was a boss ability in Diablo 2, but the name is the only thing it has in common. The function is a bit like [[Frozen]] or [[Arcane Enchanted]], in that the boss shoots out glowing things that you need to get away from before they explode in painful fashion.

One isn't that hard to avoid, but if you're in a melee fight and you get two or more around you, it's really tough not to get hit by at least one of the jets, and they are dangerous when multiples of them are stacked overlapping and you're right on top.
The casting range for the initial blobs is pretty far; they scatter them around you in a melee fight, but they have been observed being cast from a boss at least 50 yards away from the player with the little yellow circles landing near the player, ready to explode in an X configuration.
They do not debuff or slow you, just hit for big poison damage which you want to avoid standing in. It's a very effective "Denial of Area" attack, as the devs term things that make you move from one location to another.
