Class Features[]
Weapon and Armor Proficiency[]
A Blackmetal Demolitionist is proficient in all bombs, simple weapons, light armor, and shields. (but not tower shields)
Demolitions[]
A Blackmetal Demolitionist is a bomb specialist, Every day when they rest, they build twelve bombs that are placed in a satchel from which they can be dispensed as a free action. A dispensed bomb can then be thrown as a standard action or set up to detonate after a number of turns specified by the Blackmetal Demolitionist at his current location. A bomb set up to detonate explodes as if it were two size categories larger when calculating damage.
Thrown bombs have a range of 20 feet and use the Throw Splash Weapon special attack. Bombs are considered weapons and can be selected using feats such as Point-Blank Shot and Weapon Focus. On a direct hit, a Blackmetal Demolitionist’s bomb inflicts 1d6 points of untyped damage + additional damage equal to his Intelligence modifier. The damage of bomb increases by 1d6 points at every odd-numbered Blackmetal Demolitionist level (this bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit or by using feats such as Vital Strike). Splash damage from a bomb is always equal to the bomb’s minimum damage (so if the bomb would deal 2d6+4 points of fire damage on a direct hit, its splash damage would be 6 points of untyped damage). Those caught in the splash damage can attempt a Reflex save for half damage. The DC of this save is equal to 10 + 1/2 the blackmetal demolitionist’s level + the blackmetal demolitionists’s Intelligence modifier.
Also, the Blackmetal Demolitionist's skill in demolitions grants him a +4 bonus on all skill checks relating to bombs and similar traps.
