Can you take fall damage falling into water under the effects of the Water Walk spell?












6














The water walk spell states that it "grants the ability to move across any liquid surface [...] as if it were harmless solid ground".



If you fall off a cliff with water walk active on you and the water below you is treated as solid ground, will you take normal fall damage? Or can you suspend the spell, causing the water to soften the fall as usual?

    Of course, falling into water is, by the falling rules, no different from falling onto land.

    On the other hand, falling into harmless solid ground may be different from either of those.

The first part of this thread from last year covers your question I feel.



The quick of it is that the spell gives you the ability to move over water as if it was solid ground, but its not forced on you. You can choose not to use the ability and treat it as normal water for the purposes of crossing over it.



The second part of that spell description forces the buoyancy though, so while you would fall into the water as normally, you would immediately start rising to the top at 60ft/rnd.
