 You may create powerful bombs out of unstable reagents to throw at your enemies. To use a bomb, you must expend 4 TP or MP. Bombs are unstable, and if not used in the round they are created, they degrade and become inert - their method of creation prevents large volumes of explosives from being created and stored.  You may create powerful bombs out of unstable reagents to throw at your enemies.

 As a Half Action, you may infuse a single arrow, crossbow bolt, or firearm bullet with the reagents of your Bomb (spending TP/MP as normal), load the ammunition, and fire. You must be proficient with the weapon used, and the shot targets the enemy's AC as if it were a normal attack (unless it is capable of targeting Touch AC on its own). Upon a successful hit, the shot inflicts damage normally, and deals your Bomb's damage, as if it were a direct hit.

 As a Full Action, you may infuse a single Spell which you know into a Bomb, and throw it. The Spell takes effect at the target location, or onto the target creature if it is a ranged touch attack spell. You must fulfill any normal requirements for the spell to take effect. The "caster" of the spell is considered to be the Bomb, and due to this it is the point of origin for spells that leverage the caster's position, such as [[priority:magic:spells:tier1:burning_hands|]]. Creatures make saves against the DC of the spell as normal, in addition to any effects of the Bomb itself against the Bomb's DC(s). You must spend the TP/MP for the Bomb **and** the Spell used as normal. Bombs of this type do not function at all in an [[priority:magic:spells:tier8:antimagic_field|]] or similar effects. The GM may determine that certain spells are not valid for this Talent, at their discretion. As a Full Action, you may infuse a single Spell which you know into a Bomb, and throw it.
