Arial Bloodline + Saltspray Ring = +2 to CL whenever you are outside?


Rules Questions


The Arial Bloodline arcane states that whenever you are "outdoors during any form of precipitation, your effective caster level is increased by 2."

The Saltspray Ring states that it creates mist that "is exceedingly wet", and that "creatures that must remain wet or suffer a negative effect or condition have that requirement satisfied by the ring’s effect."

As precipitation is (meteorologically speaking) pretty much just falling condensed water, the wet mist created by the ring seems like it would satisfy the conditions of the bloodline arcana to me. Does it work that way, though? Any thoughts?


Nope it's not precipitation its basically just keeping you moist.


Sadly, no.

Precipitation (excerpt from wiki):
Precipitation occurs when a portion of the atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapor, so that the water condenses and "precipitates". Thus, fog and mist are not precipitation but suspensions, because the water vapor does not condense sufficiently to precipitate.

The ring's effects are referred to as a mist, and compared to the obscuring mist spell, which also uses the word fog in its definition.


Aww. Okay, thanks!
