Re: Water Jet damage
Quote:
And, yes, high pressure steam is invisible and cuts you because the water pressure is doing the damage not the heat (becuse it takes time for heat to transfer and there's not enough steam (and therefore heat) to do a lot burning damage in a short period of time. A larger jet, though (and it's magic, so it can exist), is putting a lot of heat onto an area. I've provided first aid to a couple of pretty decent steam burns over the years. Volume of steam in a cloud of a "magical" jet certain carries a lot of heat and can transfer that onto skin. Given it's magic, and it's a game mechanic designed for some level of balance, it's reasonable. If you want to make it piercing or impaling or cutting or whatever, there's a basis for that, too.
