Is water a cold magic

i was going to eat breakfast can you not-

steam magic

its synergies make it a cold magic by association

honorable cold magic

ya

and charging lowers your body temperature

here’s the thing about water:
Water doesn’t need to be cold to make things cold.

You could pour hot water all over yourself, walk outside, have a breeze go past you, and feel way colder than you did prior.

no? that’s not how it works

it has synergy with hot magics but that doesn’t make it a heat magic either

it literally is how it works.
go try it right now.

why do you think you can take a bottle of water while you’re outside in the burning heat while that bottle has also been in the burning heat, pour it over your head, and cool down?

it definitely isn’t because the water is cold.

inhales

okay… idk how many times i have to explain it this thread but…

heat transfers from something hotter to something colder, it NEVER goes from a cold object to a hot object

what ur describing is because the water is still colder than your body temperature, which is much higher than the atmosphere’s temperature in most cases

except it is

i saw what you edited

simple typo smh smh smh

what the fuck. since fucking when.

steam imbue + scalding status effect

ok so:
Body is warm.
Water is warm.
Air is cold.

Pouring the hot water over yourself gives the water (a great conductor) more surface area to both release heat into the air and absorb heat from your body.
This makes you cold.
The water is not cold, the air is cold.

This is… not rocket science.

if the water is colder than your body temperature, it makes you colder
if the water is hotter than your body temperature, it makes you hotter

heat moves from hot things to cold things

if the air is hotter than your body temperature, the reverse would happen and being wet would cause you to get hotter faster if it was the same temperature as your body

this is… not rocket science :man_facepalming:

if the water is the same temperature as your body, it would simply change the temperature of your body faster because of its high heat conductivity

the situation you described is only because the air is colder than your body temperature in 99% of cases, this is not an inherent property of water

So water isn’t naturally cold, got it.
(this was my original point!!!)

are u agreeing with me?
it’s kinda hard to tell

No, I’m saying you completely missed what I was trying to say from the very start because you wanted to overcomplicate things in ways that don’t even matter just to go and end with the exact same result.
