Delayed Bomb
Prerequisites
Alchemist 8
Benefit
The
Alchemist can place a bomb so that they explode a number of rounds after the
Alchemist ceases contact with the bomb. This delay can be any number of rounds as chosen by the
Alchemist, up to a number of rounds equal to their level. If at any point they reclaim possession of the delayed bomb, they can end the timer and prevent the bomb’s detonation. A delayed bomb detonates immediately if any other creature attempts to touch or move it, or if the bomb’s contents are removed from the vial (such as if the vial breaks). The bomb deals damage as if it scored a direct hit to any creature in the square with the bomb when it detonates, and splash damage (see Throw
Splash Weapon) to all adjacent creatures as normal. An
Alchemist cannot have more than one delayed bomb at one time. If they create another delayed bomb, the previous bomb becomes inert.
Dispel Magic can neutralize a delayed bomb, as can a successful
Disable Device check (DC equals 10 + the
Alchemist’s level + the
Alchemist’s
Intelligence modifier).
