I am being told by an alchemist in our party that he can use his familiar to deliver his mutagen as a touch attack (it is a raven statue or something, he has taken a feat to make it his familiar). He is then quoting the mutagen description where any non-alchemist who drinks a mutagen becomes nauseated for 1 hour.
My question is, is this even possible? I would think the touch would bypass the whole "drinking aspect" and simply give the target the mutagen effect. I just feel like being able to deliver a ranged touch nauseate with a duration of 1 hour is pretty ridiculous, if it were sickened though I would understand.
I realize there is a DC 20 fort save, but considering that's higher than all of our spellcaster's DCs, I mean, sheesh.
Yeah, that's not how it works. At all.
You have to drink a mutagen.
