Grenade Crafting

Post by Baron Saturday » Mon Jan 07, 2019 1:17 pm

Was there a sneaky update to grenade recipes that I somehow missed? Specifically noticing that alchemist's fire/acid flasks no longer requires lesser catalysts, and fire/acid bombs don't need 1d4 temp essences anymore. Wanted to make sure this was intentional befote I celebrate too much.

This is intentional and the details will be posted soon.

Speaking of bombs, is that supposed to happen? I mean, bombs aren't exactly magic. For context, tried using an Acid Bomb with a Kensai character, but nothing happened and that message was displayed.

Maybe it counts as ranged, which kensai can't use as well.

Arguably it is magic, considering the ingredients are gems in a bottle, and then some oil for the bomb.
The gems generally create magical effects, even if it is "just" acid.
So yea, could definitely argue that it's technically magical in nature.

Crafted fire bombs are mundane. The fact that crafted acid bombs aren't is almost certainly just an oversight.
