How long can your knight hold its breath and how much fire damage are you doing per round? I think you may run out of air first. Definitely an interesting idea if it’s already hurt.

    If its 5e, he can hold his breath for 1min + a number of minutes qual to the constitution modifier, which should be at least +2. That 30 rounds, with a lv 2 heat metal that's 60d8 or a 270hp average, with a lv 9 heat metal that's 270d8 or 1215 average. Water breathing spell is also super easy to get though one could say the inside of the kraken isn't exactly water.

    Necklace of Adaptation lets you breathe normally in any environment. There's an Air Bubble spell in Astral Adventurer's Guide you could use instead of Water Breathing as well.

    Very interesting! Though both are significantly harder to obtain than water breathing ofc

    Also, tiny little detail I forgot to mention: heat metal is only 1min duration haha

    Now imagining a Kraken desperately trying to throw-up an Eldritch Knight while the Knight is trying as hard as possible to stay inside the Kraken.

    If my players went through all that trouble of obtaining those items they deserve that one win

    What if the kraken has a giant beak and treats your knight more like a crunchy hot cinnamon candy?

    If the throat of a Kraken is anything like a shark you'll be taking A (dm specified) LOT of bludgeoning damage each turn. Good luck on those concentration saving throws.
