Grenadier Alchemical Weapon ability

[Zhayne]

The ability states "The alchemical item takes full effect on the next creature struck by the weapon". Does this mean the target gets no saving throw?

[Cheapy]

I would say that if the effect doesn't include a saving throw, then yes. Otherwise the full effect includes a saving throw.

[FLite]

Whatever the effect of a direct hit from the weapon is, that is what happens to the target.

Hi

But does it add your Int modifier to damage?

Recent PFS game the GM said "No"

Thanks

It shouldn't. "Alchemical Weapons" are things like Alchemist Fire/Acid Flask/Liquid Ice/etc, and they just inflict a static damage.

Not if they're an alchemist.

All alchemists gain the Throw Anything feat as a bonus feat at 1st level.

An alchemist adds his Intelligence modifier to damage done with splash weapons, including the splash damage if any. This bonus damage is already included in the bomb class feature.

Going to disagree:

Alchemist's Throw Anything ability states it adds to splash weapons. If the item used with Alchemical Weapons is a splash weapon it should get the extra damage (i.e. intelligence modifier to damage). The fact it doesn't splash for this ability doesn't change what the item is.
