Alchemist fire question


Rules Questions


I don't have a question about how it works, but I could swear that somewhere I read that you can pour alchemist fire or burning oil on a melee weapon for some added damage.
But I cannot find that rule anywhere, did I imagine it? Does anyone know where it might be?


Only an Alchemist with the Grenadier archetype can do this:

"Alchemical Weapon (Su): At 2nd level, a grenadier can infuse a weapon or piece of ammunition with a single harmful alchemical liquid or powder, such as alchemist’s fire or sneezing powder, as a move action. This action consumes the alchemical item, but transfers its effect to the weapon in question. The alchemical item takes full effect on the next creature struck by the weapon, but does not splash, spread, or otherwise affect additional targets. Any extra damage added is treated like bonus dice of damage, and is not doubled on a critical hit. The alchemical treatment causes no harm to the weapon treated, and wears off 1 minute after application if no blow is struck. At 6th level, a grenadier can use her alchemical weapon ability as a swift action. At 15th level, this ability becomes a free action. This ability replaces poison resistance. "


Thank you, I knew I'd seen it somewhere.
