Does Precise Bombs work with Explosive Missile?


Rules Questions

Precise Bombs

Benefit: Whenever the alchemist throws a bomb, he can select a number of squares equal to his Intelligence modifier that are not affected by the splash damage from his bombs. If the bomb misses, this discovery has no effect.

Explosive Missile

Prerequisite: Alchemist 4

Benefit: As a standard action, the alchemist can infuse a single arrow, crossbow bolt, or one-handed firearm bullet with the power of his bomb, load the ammunition, and shoot the ranged weapon. He must be proficient with the weapon in order to accomplish this. When the infused ammunition hits its target, it deals damage normally and---detonates as if the alchemist had thrown the bomb---at the target. If the explosive missile misses, it does not detonate.

"---detonates as if the alchemist had thrown the bomb---"

This is the important part, so the answer is yes. Though you would probably be more interested in this :

I wonder if this works with splash weapon mastery?


Some more Alchemist Questions from the Grenadier Archtype.

Does using the "Alchemical Weapon" supernatural ability provoke an AoO?

Does "detonating" a bomb from the Alchemists square (not throwing it) using the "Directed Blast" supernatural ability provoke AoO?

All you accomplished Alchemists come out of the woodwork and help a noob out.


If i may ask where is the Grenadier Archtype located?

Is that on the SRD or anywhere online? I'd really like to take a look at that.
