[QUOTE="TanisFrey, post: 5476177, member: 26948"] Paizo did not change the language for PF from the 3.5 language. If you read my post on the D&D Legacy boards, found here: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/d-d-legacy-discussion/301803-splash-damage-question.html#post5475448[/url] I note that logic can be applied to say that a normal Alchemist Fire Flask or Acid Flask will do splash damage to large creatures. To Quote the PF SDR this time: "Every creature within 5 feet of the point where the flask hits takes 1 point of fire damage from the splash." The logic goes that a large creature is a creature within 5 feet therefore it takes splash damage. Overall in PF or 3.5 logic can be used to argue either way. My best advice is to talk to you DM if s/he will allow splash damage to affect larger creatures in addition to a primary hit. Don't just spring it on them, that a surefire way of getting a no. And expect that at some point some enemy will fire bomb that fighter with a enlarge person, who is your ally and the DM will apply splash damage. [/QUOTE]
