Notes

• Despite the tooltip description stating you can use the Dip ability to "alter the surface", this does not appear to be possible with any surfaces currently implemented.

• The effect of dipping is similar to Coatings and mutually exclusive with them.
• Some Coatings can be throw on the ground to make a surface. This surface will persist between Long Rests
  • Dipping your weapon in the surface will give the coating effect, but it it will last Duration: Until Long rest instead of the normal timer.

• Weapons can be dipped into any object with the Burning Condition, including torches, candles, and burning party members. A character can carry burning objects such as torches, and drop them on the ground (which does not spend actions or bonus actions) just before dipping.
