For every 5 feet the elemental moves in water, or for every gallon of water splashed on it, it takes 1 cold damage. If the target is a creature or a flammable object, it ignites. Until a creature takes an action to douse the fire, the target takes 5 (1d10) fire damage at the start of each of its turns. If the target is a creature of a flammable object, it ignites. Like a living inferno, the fire-creatures burning dance of heat and flame brings it ever closer. Dnd 5E Elemental Evil Full Brunt ThatsIf it takes the full brunt thats a 10x10x10 cube of water due to being a large creature which makes it 7480 gallons of water. The spell describes an impacted area but not the volume of water that hits that area. It is not saying that the described cube is completely filled with water, but rather that every creature in that cube is hit with enough water to damage it. I dont think my druid will be using this form unless I am certain there are no casters around. ![]() I understand the science of what youre saying and its super cool at that, but the vast majority of that water is going to be harmlessly blasted away by the steam explosion as soon as the bottom of the sphere hits the elemental. Mind you, I think it would have to depend on the saving throw (which honestly would have to be a thing so that a CR 5 monster isnt easily instakilled by a 4th level control spell). Therefore a 1 wide x 1 tall x 10 deep section of Tidal Wave (10 cubic feet of water) would do about 75 points of cold damage. This is the whole surface area, so a little less than half this number would be the front surface area, well say 10 square feet. Also, the reply you quoted says that 10 cubic feet of water would do 75 points of cold damage and that the front surface area of a fire elemental is 10 square feet, so tidal wave would cause it to take 750 points of cold damage. That doesnt work at all because, even if you assume that the full volume of water affects the elemental as soon as it comes in contact, having a surface area of 10 square feet means that even by a generous estimate, it can only be in contact with 10 1-foot cubes of water at the same time, so it would only take 75 damage. Unless the pool of water is moving or splashes, the elemental is only affected by the amount of water it touches.
