How many bombs can an alchemist hold at once.

[FLite]

A lot of an alchemists powers seem to be about producing a lot of bombs at once. It is not clear how many he can hold in his hands, because if it is one hand per bomb, a lot of his abilities are going to conflict.

For example if you have Double elixer and quick bomber, and you make 2 bombs and draw a 3rd, do you need 3 hands?

And how is Alchemical Alacrity supposed to work?

You spend 1 action to make 3 items, each of which (presumably) requires a hand. You then have 2 actions left to activate 3 items. Enduring alchemy can help as long as at least one item you are making is an elixer, but that still doesn't help with the hands part of this.

Zero because he's out of RP. :D

But I would play it out by "breaking apart" alacrity. So you make 3 items, but you don't make them simultaneously, you make them 1 by 1.

So,make the 1st,use it (attack, drink, etc) ,make 1 more, use it (or move or do something else) , make the 3rd,3 actions done.

Handwaving and certainly not RAW. But it's the only way to use it.
