Boiling Blood and Elemental Bloodline. Can I abuse this?

[Yennaio]

So I recently started a playing a Waves Mystery Oracle with a 1 level dip in Elemental (Water) Bloodline Sorcerer with the intention to play a blaster with a bit of utility thrown in. My party could do with a little bit of damage and a little bit of control but basically has it all covered, I'm just here to be a textbook and have fun.

My Question is this: Am I able to change the damage type of Boiling Blood through the Elemental Bloodline Arcana?

If possible I plan to use Boiling Blood as a multi-target slow spell early on (cold damage type with freezing spells revelation) with a duration of more than 1 turn. Is this even slightly plausible?

Any help with this would be awesome. Thanks

By RAW its 50/50 whether you'd be able to do it since bloodline arcanas don't say that it only applies to sorcerer spells but by RAI its up to your gm whether the innate magic in you affects all your magic or just the magic it grants you. I would suggest that you ask your GM before you get too excited by it.

Yes, your bloodline arcana works on your oracle spells.

Yes, you can change the type of damage dealt from the Boiling Blood spell with the Elemental Bloodline Arcana. And as you're dealing cold damage, Freezing Spells apply.

A side note: the question should never be "Can I abuse this?", it should be "should I even do this?". And the answer is no, abusing the rules isn't good for any game. Though this isn't really abusing the rules, it's a valid idea.

Haha, good point Rub-Eta. We have a new player in the group so I was looking to have a few tricks just in case things go south. I agree that abusing the rules can make games less fun for everyone, but if you have the option to do something a little bit questionable and it gets you out of a sticky situation on occasion then I believe it's OK.

Thanks for the help with this, I found the wordings a little bit vague and I'm glad I asked for assistance.
