Gloves of Arcane Striking & Alchemist's Throw Anything


Rules Questions


If you were attacking with a thrown weapon using the Gloves of Arcane Striking & had the Alchemist's Throw Anything feature, does the damage from the glove's second option deal extra INT based damage?

For example, let's say an attacker throws a shuriken using Arcane strike, and hits, dealing damage to the target, and arcane strike damage to the target and all enemies adjacent to that target. Does that qualify for splash damage for the purpose of Throw Anything?

No. In fact, the Throw Anything ability doesn't even care about splash damage. It only mentions the use of splash weapons, which the Shuriken in your example isn't. Even when it has acquired a splash effect.


Thanks for the quick reply. I was hoping for the case, but I can see the distinction, kinda bummed on that.
