Water Spirit and falling damage.

 If its the same as the defiler spell "Abominus", which allows you to breathe and walk underwater, then Yes, you will take falling damage.<div></div>

If I recall correctly, falling damage was supposed to be removed from Water Spirit.  Again, if memory serves, jumping into water at high speed sometimes makes the hit calculation happen outside of water, meaning jumping off a high ledge into water can still generate fatal falling damage.Sorry to hear about you wiping.  <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  Will have to play around with it later, see whether my memory was actually right for once.<div></div>

Water Spirit will kill you when you jump down the waterfall in KoS. I hit the water dead on where I always do but since Ih had Water Spirit up, I died. This really needs to get fixed.<div></div>

<div></div>if I remember correctly what they did fix was that if you cast it while your group was in the water it wouldnt make you fall straight to the bottom killing everyone if it's deep water. They did fix that.. when you cast it with everyone in water it makes you float down to the bottom with no falling damage.  I  hardly ever use that spell because of the problems associated with it.. but it is fun to play around with your group when waiting for a spawn in the water. Though do warn them not to get out of the water and jump off a rock into deep water... they can and will go splat.

I find that the spell is kind of handy for the first island in Tenebrous Tangle since you tend to go underwater when swimming up the river.  Whenever I activate it I always tell anyone I am grouped with "DO NOT JUMP OFF THE WATERFALL while waterbreathing is activated". I've gone off the waterfall a couple of times after forgetting it was on....<div></div>
