Alchemical items made with quick alchemy lose their potency at the end of the turn. If, before the end of the turn, you load them into an alchemical crossbow, would they be "used" at that point?
For reference: "As an action, you can load a single lesser alchemical bomb into the bracket; this bomb must be one that deals energy damage (such as an acid flask, alchemist’s fire, bottled lightning, frost vial, or thunderstone). The next three attacks made with the crossbow deal 1d6 damage of the bomb’s damage type in addition to the crossbow’s normal damage. If the second and third attacks are not all made within 1 minute of the first attack, the bomb’s energy is wasted. "
I'm particularly wondering if perpetual potency would allow a bomber to keep the bow loaded, since you *can't* load your higher-level bombs into the crossbow.
