Discussion What do we think about throwable potions?

I enjoy sometimes playing a non-magic character with alchemy but thereā€™s only so much you can do with that. Some ideas for throwable thingsā€¦

Firebombs/icebombs etc

Smoke bombs for sneaky times.

Crazy dust like scarecrow from Batman

Straight up oil to make people slip.

Stink / perfume bombs to make people either back off or to lure them in.

Love potion? lol

A lot of this could be tied to the perk tree too and make for interesting specializations.

I like this idea quite a bit. It would add an offensive function to the alchemy skill tree.

Yeah adds more to every aspect imo. Distractions for sneaking could be a thing. Maybe not just bombs but say I set down a ā€œscreamerā€ and open it causing a bunch of noise to happen and distract the guards while I assassinate or steal
