Perhaps a silly question, but I'll ask anyways.
Alchemist fire says:
Make a ranged weapon attack against a creature or object, treating the alchemist's fire as an improvised weapon. On a hit, the target takes 1d6 ongoing fire damage.
If a character has the circusfolk culture, it includes this feature:
Slapstick. You are proficient with improvised weapons, and improvised weapons you use can deal 1d6 damage rather than the damage they normally deal. You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your improvised weapons.
So how does one assess the initial damage of thrown alchemist fire? Does the improvised weapon damage (normally 1d4) get replaced ith 1d6, and also add 1d6 fire along with the dex damage? If not, how do you interpret this?
