Boiling Blood from Ultimate Magus deals 1 fire damage per round to your targets if they fail a Fortitude save. The duration is concentration + 1 round/level.
I'm picturing a spellcaster using this spell from long range in conjunction with an invisibility effect and overland flight.
Short of having fire resistance, the poor targets never stood a chance.
Does this seem particularly wicked to anyone else?

One of my players posted the particulars of this spell to me. I was groovin' on it. Right up until the last two lines.
For some reason, when an orc's blood boils he gets a Strength bonus instead? What?
Is there some sort of fluff I'm unaware of whereby orcs are 'hot-blooded' (as opposed to warm-blooded or cold-blooded)? Or did the designer just randomly throw a weird cornercase on the spell because "orcs are just that awesome"? If so, why not any other traditionally "rambunctious" race like ogres, or minotaurs, or anything with ferocity?
Well, my half-orc dragon sorcerer sure likes it. It's great for hurting enemies, torturing prisoners for intel, or buffing himself. Very versatile.
I believe it may have been a spell from Orcs of Golarion that was added to UM.
I got the impression that Boiling Blood is a useless spell in almost every situation.
Whats stopping the enemies from running away from you?
