Alchemist Questions About Fast Bombs


Rules Questions


Hey all, last game session I lost my character (Fighter/Rogue) in the fight of Broken Moon High Throne (Carrion Crown). And now are in the process of building my new character a Drow Alchemist (Chirurgeon Archetype).

Basing his concept on the Medieval Plague Doctors, however I have a few issues I am unsure of since being my first Alchemist.

These are:
Drinking a haste extract that you have created would that grant an extra bomb to throw using the Fast Bomb Discovery.

Another problem I am unsure of is when using the Fast Bomb Discovery are you aloud to use multiple Discoveries with the Bombs you throw. For example a level 8 Alchemist can throw two bombs at once using a full round action. Am I able to use a Dispelling Bomb followed up by a Smoke Bomb, or do they have to be the same effect?


Yes, you would be able to throw an extra bomb each round, assuming you had extra bombs to throw left in your daily allotment.

Each bomb is independent. You can select each add-on as you are throwing them.


Cool thanks for that :-)

Also another note, I have noticed the Accelerated Drinker Trait. Would that grant you the ability to Drink two Extracts in the same round using the Quick Draw Feat?


Quick Draw does not allow you to draw non-weapon items. A Tiefling's tail, if you use the trait, though...


K thanks for the clear up, I never knew that about Quick Draw. But is their anyway to draw two potions in the same round and take full benefit from this trait. Using it for your move action to drink an Extract while using your standard action to drink another Extract.

I have thought about using the Spring Loaded Wrist Sheath or Gloves Of Storing.


The FAQ says that Extracts don't work with Accelerated Drinker - they're *like* potions in a lot of ways, but aren't actually potions as far as things like that go.


Thanks, I thought it was to good to be true.

Suppose it still has it uses by using the Brew Potion (Alchemist Bonus Feat)

Note also that you don't need to draw your extracts separately from drinking them. It is a standard action to draw and drink an extract.
