Efficient Alchemy Class Feat


Skills, Feats, Equipment & Spells


Under the Efficient Alchemy feat it specifically says that items made during Downtime with the Craft Alchemy Skill can be made in double batches. And it says in the Craft Alchemy Skill that alchemical items with the consumable trait come in batches of 4. Elixirs have the consumable trait. So that means in downtime you could make 4 elixirs at the same time but with advanced Alchemy you could make 8, correct?

It also never says how much a batch is for any other items. Does that mean you can only create 1 bomb of your lvl in 4 days? That doesn't seem right.

All items with the Consumable trait (as indicated the blue box of the item description) have 4 item batches. This includes every alchemical item in the playtest, as well as stuff like potions and trinkets.


But we're does it say that? Cause the only place I can find a mention is in the Alchemist ability where it says a 'typical' half batch is 2.


It's in the Craft rules on page 148.

You can Craft items with the consumable trait in batches, making up to four of the same item simultaneously. This requires you to include the raw materials for all the items in the batch at the start, and you must complete the batch all at once.


OHHH I see what I misunderstood. I figured Bombs wouldn't be consumable because you don't drink them but looking it now they all say consumable. My bad.
