How much bulk are alchemical bombs?

I'm seeing contradictory information in the book. In one area, it lists alchemical bombs as each having L bulk, whereas most bombs on the tables have "-" bulk. Which is it?


Have you checked the Errata document?

Yes. I did a search for "alchemy" and "bomb" and didn't see anything that seemed to be related.


Where are you seeing "-" for bulk for bombs? The table on p. 292, and each of the bomb descriptions I've seen all say "L" for bulk.


This table seems to indicate that only the Peshpin Grenade is L bulk, while all the others are "-".

Although each individual bomb that I looked at indicate they are all L bulk. Seems to be a typo on Nethys' side.

I'm at work, so will check the book when I get home.

They are all L in the book/pdf.

Alright. Looks like it might be a mistake.

Thanks for clarifying everyone!

Now to make a cursed alchemist bomb that doubles in size, weighs 1B and is stuck to your hand until you detonate it or succeed on a sleight of hand check.

(think of an old black cartoon bomb complete with wick and everything, when lit it takes three rounds to burn down :) )
