Does Snare Specialist let you make bomb snares without bombs?


Rules Discussion


As written, the Snare Specialist lets you make snares without consuming any resources. Bombs seem like a resource to me, but snare resources also seem like this weird Schrodinger's box thing. You don't consume them until you build it, but you had to have bought the supplies ahead of time...?

It would seem very strange if a Ranger could make bomb snares without knowing how to make the actual bombs though, so I think this might be a mistake.

Also, does your player need to roll a Craft check for every snare they puts down?

No: "Some snares have additional requirements beyond those stated in the Craft activity; these snares list their requirements in a Craft Requirements entry."

And

"Craft Requirements Supply six of the same damaging 3rd-level moderate alchemical bomb." The cost of the 6 bombs in in addition to resources needed to craft.

As I read it, you make the craft check when you quick deploy.
