The "slow burn arrow" description from the Elves of Golarion book states:
Slow burn arrow:
Behind the head of this arrow is a small receptacle of alchemical material that heats up when exposed to air and eventually bursts into flame; barbs on the arrowhead pierce the pouch when it hits a target.
Benefit: On your turn, 1 round after impact, the burst of flame deals 1d6 points of fire damage to the target.
I have two questions on this:
1) Does the slow burn arrow deal normal arrow damage?
2) Can the slow burn arrow catch things on fire?
In Skull and Shackles, my pirate archer wants to fire flaming arrows onto other ships and catch them on fire. I don't have access to the Flame Arrow spell, so I'm trying to figure out how else to do this. (Since I can't find an in-game mechanism for soaking arrows in oil and lighting them on fire.)
