How do multiple doses of inhaled poisons work?

[Scrynor]

It says you can be exposed to multiple doses of inhaled and ingested poisons simultaneously and doing it that way is 1 save that is harder with greater duration.

But how do you actually subject someone to multiple doses simultaneously? <-- This is the only real question, you can just jump to answering if you know. Everything else is hypotheticals.

Can you just use a glass jar that can hold 2 doses in it? That seems too easy to me and like it trivializes the alchemists concentrate poison discovery (although perhaps that is meant for injury and contact poisons). Also, if it works this way what is the limit on doses per projectile?

Do you have to throw multiple vials of the same inhaled poison in one turn and for some reason unlike multiple melee attacks with injury poison they all go at once? Does this imply that enemy isn't exposed until their turn when they breath it in so however many you can stack in there before their turn is what they are exposed to? Would they then take exposure at the beginning of their turn and frequency at the end or would the frequency not start till next round?

Would multiple poison delivering sources have to act simultaneously (ie two characters with readied actions to throw a vial at the same time)?

Little help please!

I don't know precise things, but I think you could add several doses to a smoke bomb (ninja) and I like to think you could put them in smoke sticks.. or build up in one thing.

This is the correct delivery method.

"Simultaneously" in this case means "using the same delivery device/action." If multiple thrown vials were required, there would be no difference between inhaled poisons and injury poisons (which can be delivered in a sequence of multiple attacks to the same stacking effect). Concentrate poison is indeed intended to avoid the one-dose-per-attack limitation of injury or contact poisons, and has no meaningful effect on inhaled or ingested poisons which don't have that limitation.

As far as I know there is no limit on doses per projectile, aside from the amount of gold you're willing to pay to poison a single target.

Gotcha. Thanks for the help.

How easy it is to do makes even more sense now that I just did the math. Hitting them with two separate doses is almost always better anyway.
