Relic of Akeem - how does it work?

[Master Childman.2135]

From the wiki: [...] When you disable an enemy that is afflicted by 5 or more stacks of confusion or torment, inflict confusion and torment on enemies around the target. (Cooldown: 10 Seconds) [...]. My question is: confusion and torment are inflicted only to the enemies around the target or also to the target? I looked this relic is raccomanded for some build (scourge/mirage condi) used in RAID but normally here I have just one boss / target without other mobs around it. Thanks in advance.

Haven't tested it myself, but I'm pretty sure it also hits the target.

I would have to test it, but I imagine it is probably just an AoE centred on the target itself, and includes the target and up to 4 other targets. That is how most of these things work.

If you check the discussion page on the wiki, someone has noted that it does affect the target itself and queried whether this is intended.
