Alchemists and Golems


Rules Questions


Just want to make this quick: can alchemist's bombs and extracts be used to harm golems? Golems are usually immune to spells or spell-like abilities, but since alchemist's bombs and extracts are listed in the APG as supernatural abilities, does that mean an alchemist can just stand there and bomb the heck out of the poor golem at their leisure?

Thanks for any helpful responses.


Yes, Bombs work fine on golems, aside from possible elemental immunity/healing for the bomb's energy type.

Anything that does not have SR apply works just fine. My wizard casts glitterdust whenever she sees a golem.


Thanks for the answer.

Grease or create pit on the floor in front of a golem usually also work well, since the spells are not cast at the golem.
