08-13-07, 11:25 AM How fast do you sink if you fall in the sea?

I've got an orc cleric that got water walk prepared which says that if he is submerged he'll be brought back to the surface at 60ft/r. The orc cleric weights about 215 lb and has a full plate armor (50lb) on. So how much distance will this sinking orc cover before he manages to cast the spell (assuming that he doesn't reach te bothom of the sea before that)?

Thanks in advance,

Since casting the spell is a standard action, the distance sunk likely won't be an issue.

Something else just came up. If you make a trip attack with a halberd and you succeed, do you deal damage as normally too?
