Talk:Acid

Is acid really a magical substance? I can see it being classified as such if we were talking about a specific kind of acid, but this is just a general page. We had all sorts of acid here on Earth that aren't magical.Artemas (talk) 16:05, June 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * nope; good catch ~ Lhynard (talk) 19:58, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

Another category question: Should we put acid in Category:Energies or not? Of course on Earth it is first of all a substance, but in D&D it often functions like other energies of spells, like fire, cold or electricity (compare e.g. elemental aura. So I would prefer to include that category for the sake of completeness. Daranios (talk) 19:35, April 2, 2017 (UTC)


 * I would vote yes for inclusion in Category:Energies. In D&D terms, acid will still function in an antimagic field, but it still does "energy" damage, right? Similarly, a winter storm will still occur in an antimagic field, yet it will still deal cold damage. ~ Lhynard (talk) 23:00, April 2, 2017 (UTC)

Why does Acid have it's own page? Hurtzbad (talk) 14:05, April 3, 2017 (UTC)


 * It's included in the Scope of the project policy that real-world topics can also get their own articles, but should concentrate mainly on the Realms version(s), appearances, etc., like e.g. in oak. I think acid fits that. Daranios (talk) 14:55, April 3, 2017 (UTC)


 * Daranios is correct. ~ Lhynard (talk) 14:58, April 3, 2017 (UTC)
