View Full Version : Module weapon with INT bonus damage

How can I define a weapon in a module that adds INT bonus damage? I'm trying to define an Alchemist's bomb.

I was able to create one in a character sheet as a ranged weapon with INT bonus. It added
<stat type="string">intelligence</stat>. But that does not seem to work inside a module's weapon definition.

Is that possible?

Thanks

Weapons can not be defined in the Pathfinder ruleset as using a specific ability; it just uses the ability defined for the type of attack supported by the weapon type (usually melee/range -> STR/DEX).

That would require an extension to add that capability. Given that it's only something a alchemist is setting up rarely, it's probably easier to just make a new weapon entry when you need it.
