making grenade like useful(3.5 feats PEACH)

[bobthe6th]

so, I figure splash weapons could use some love.

Alchemist:[general]
requirements:13 intelligence
benefit: craft (alchemy) is always a class skill for you, you don't need to cast spells to use the skill, and you get a +4 to craft (alchemy) checks.

Bomber:[fighter][general]
requirements: quick draw
benefit: you treat grenade like items as weapons for the quick draw feat. additionally you can chose to throw the item hard enough to deal additional damage equal to your strength modifier as slashing damage as the vial shatters.

Skilled alchemist:[general]
requirements: 6 ranks in craft(alchemy), Alchemist
benefit: Your craft (alchemy) checks work on a per day basis instead of a per week(you make the check to represent a normal weeks worth of effort after one day). you get an additional +2 bonus to craft (alchemy) checks.

Craft Alchemical:[general]
requirements: 6 ranks in craft(alchemy), Alchemist
benefit: When you craft alchemy, you gain a variety of new options.

You may chose to craft more then one copy of an item at once, spending a third of its combined price in crafting materials, and working to create the combined price with the check.

You may stack together alchemical item's affects, up to one additional affect per 4 ranks in craft(alchemy) you posses. the new item costs the sum of all the items, and has a DC of the highest DC item plus 4 per additional item.

Master alchemist:
requirements: 12 ranks in craft alchemy, skilled alchemist
benefit: You now craft alchemical items in mere hours. You can spend an hour and make a craft alchemy check, yet you make progress as if you had spent a week crafting.


new splash weapons
Liquid lightning: 20 gp, craft (alchemy) DC 20

On the round following a direct hit, the target takes an additional 1d8 points of nonlethal damage from spasms, but the target can make a DC 14 fortitude save to resist the damage.

pretty much complete. can I get some comments?

[Erik Vale]

Not so much making them useful as easier to create and use.
If there was a feat to make more potent versions of them (Other than the minor fighter boost) I may agree with the heading.

[bobthe6th]

Their is, craft alchemical let's you stack alchemical affects, like damage.
Additionaly, now one can full attack TWF rapid shot flasks, making them much more useful. Anything else I should add?
