Book of the Dead: Bottled Sunlight attack rolls item bonus

[Owllord98]

So i noticed that Bottled Sunlight subsequents level do not have an attack bonus items, is this intentional or is it an errata? Should they follow Crystal Shard bonus item progression?

[Kelseus]

Is there any reason is should? I don't see anything that would imply that it was anything but intentional.

[Owllord98]

Without the attack bonus item and higher levels seems to struggle to hit creatures of the same or higher levels

[Perpdepog]

Yeah. It's more strange because it breaks the established pattern of how bombs work more than anything.

Every bomb in the game that follows the lesser/moderate/greater/major leveling scheme has item bonuses except Bottle Sunlight, which makes it feel kind of conspicuous that this one doesn't.

It also differs from normal bombs by having a non-combat effect. To me it seems like a duration item that can be used secondarily as a bomb as opposed to bomb that is secondarily a bomb: that can be the reason it doesn't get the bonus to hit.

Looks like a mistake to me. I'd give it the same bonuses on all tiers that other bombs have.

This book's quality control really isn't giving me a lot of confidence in the upcoming Dark Archive release but what am I gonna do, not play a thaumaturge?

There is the item fortunately that gives you a bonus for all alchemical bombs.
