Battle Alchemist: Sword and Shield - 10150 AXP

TIER FOUR FEATURE: Battle Alchemist: Sword and Shield

When you take this feature you gain the following abilities

Weapon Crafting

Gain double proficiency in Smith's Tools.

Alchemist's Blade

Whenever you make an attack using a weapon created by your Fabricate Armament feature, you can use your Intelligence, instead of Strength or Dexterity, for your attacks and damage rolls with that weapon.

In addition, you can keep three weapons created at a time.

Hollow Blade

When you use your Fabricate Armament feature to craft a weapon, you can create a hollow space inside the weapon to store any amount of sword oils, or elixirs you have created. You can use the oils inside this weapon without taking an action.

Improved Oils

You can increase the power of your sword oils with specially prepared reagents. You can create a number of improved oils equal to your Intelligence modifier. You can choose one of the following improvements:

  • Lasting Oil: When you deal damage with your sword oils to a creature, the oil sticks to that creature, causing 1d6 damage from the type of the oil at the start of each of the creature's turns, for 1 minute.

    While this oil is affecting that creature, the creature loses resistance to that damage type. In addition, whenever that creature takes damage form that damage type, it suffers additional 1d4 damage from the same type.

  • Armor Oil: You can coat a suit of armor or a shield with the weapon oil. The next time you take damage from the oil type for 1 hour, the damage is reduced to half and the oil vanishes.

Armorer

You can use your Fabricate Armament feature to also create armors and shields. When wearing an armor created by this feature, you can add your Intelligence modifier, instead of your Dexterity modifier to your AC.
