Vial Belt

As the vial bandolier, but the vial belt holds up to 10 vials in easily accessible reach, allowing them to be drawn as a free action. Alchemical Concoctions Alchemical concoctions follow the normal Craft rules for creating items. Each also requires an alchemy feat; see Chapter 1: Spell Slingers and Gear Grinders, for these feats. Remember that bonuses from philters and alchemical oils don't stack with any other bonuses. Alchemical products are loosely grouped into four levels of complexity or difficulty to create; in ascending order, they are Journeyman, Expert, Artisan and Master products. There is a corresponding alchemy feat for each level of difficulty, which is a prerequisite to the creation of any product of that level. Each alchemical product lists its effects followed by a line of statistics that includes the following (in this Many are those who know how to create the simplest items in the alchemist's repertoire - small sticks with bits of alchemical gold that glow brighter than a torch when struck, vicious acids, and stones coated with a special dust that causes a loud explosion when struck against something solid. But these are only the basics of an elaborate and incredible art, easily as expansive as any form of spellcasting. Indeed, the simple alchemist's fire and thunderstones are to the heights of alchemy what little cantrips are to the greatest forms of magic. Many alchemists - at least, many alchemists who are also spellcasters - often find themselves drawn away to the "superior" art of potion-brewing, through the Brew Potion feat.
