Salt?

[Murdock Mudeater]

Is there a PFS legal source for salt? Like for damaging Giant Slugs.

Just trying to find which book it is in.

It's a really, really awesome alchemical power component, too!

Dumps two wine barrels full of leeches into Flutter's trough.

"Picked these up in Taldor. Evidently you like them?"

[Flutter]

I'm not sure if the Tears of the Fate's Favored contain enough salt to harm a giant slug.

Since it's a trade good, you should be able to keep all of your wealth in salt and freely convert to gold or Guinea pigs, right?

It is listed as a weakness for Akatas, but I've never been very clear how you might deploy it as a weapon. Maybe treat thrown salt like Holy Water vs Evil Outsiders?

I salt my Akatas to taste and then roast then in a yellow curry.

Their tears are enough to fill an ocean

I believe 1lb of salt is treated as an Acid Flask, mechanically. So either fill an empty flask, or a sack, and you should be good.

Regarding Giant Slugs, they say to treat "a handful of salt" as an acid flask, which is oddly written, as the giant slugs are immune to acid. 1d6 points of damage (with probably splash damage as normal). Unclear if it is considered an improvised attack or not.

Though as for weapon uses, you could very easily use it to herd or wall off an area from giant slugs, since even a handful does quite a bit of damage.
