One of the OP's points was never actually discussed (bolding mine):

Alternatively, the player with the slave might work to find a way to let the Liberty's Edge character rescue their slave without actually engaging in PvP combat, which would be a cheap way to get several of Liberty's Edge's boons by freeing and mentoring a bunch of PC-owned slaves. John Compton has already said this will not work in a post here, replying to a post earlier in the thread. John Compton wrote:
According to Additional Resources, "Archetypes: broodmaster summoner, clone master alchemist, gravewalker witch, pack lord druid, master summoner, reincarnated druid, sanguine wildblooded, synthesist summoner, undead lord cleric, vivisectionist alchemist archetypes are not legal for play." (bolding mine) So no, vivisectionist is not PFS legal. However, the vestigial arm discovery is legal. So that part of his character is OK. These kinds of questions are easy to answer if you check the link above for Additional Resources. It lists each book and what is either allowed or not allowed in them. Edited for format.

Why do you need Quick Draw? Fast bombs covers it: Fast Bombs, PRD wrote: An alchemist with this discovery can quickly create enough bombs to throw more than one in a single round. The alchemist can prepare and throw additional bombs as a full-round action if his base attack bonus is high enough to grant him additional attacks. This functions just like a full-attack with a ranged weapon. An alchemist must be at least 8th level before selecting this discovery. Emphasis mine. I don't see why you would need Quick Draw since fast bombs lets you prepare and throw your full attacks.
Since the original bomb grants a Reflex save for half splash, I would think the secondary splash would too. PRD, Bomb class ability wrote: Those caught in the splash damage can attempt a Reflex save for half damage. And Strannik, the reflex save is something specific for Alchemist bombs. You are correct that most splash weapons do not allow one. Edited for clarity. |
