Bonus Proficiencies

3rd level feature

You gain proficiency with alchemist's supplies and tinker's tools if you don't already have them.

Explosive Arsenal

3rd level feature

You gain the ability to craft and use explosives in combat. You learn the formulae for creating two types of explosives from the list below. You can craft these explosives during a short rest, provided you have access to alchemist's supplies and appropriate materials. You can carry a number of grenades and bombs equal to your Dexterity modifier + your rogue level.

Choose one of the following options.

Flashbang Grenade

Each creature in a 20-foot radius sphere centered on a point you designate within 30 feet must succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your dexterity modifier) or be blinded or deafened for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

Frag Grenade

Each creature within 10 feet of a point you designate within 30 feet of you. The target must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take damage equal to your Sneak Attack dice.

Remote Bomb

This grenade adheres to the first creature or object it touches within 5 feet of where it lands and stays stuck for a number of minutes equal to your Rogue Level. You can set up multiple bombs using your Actions. After the bombs are set, you can use your bonus action to trigger them all at the same time, dealing Xd6 force damage, when X is half your proficiency bonus, rounded down.

Smoke Bomb

Creates a 20-foot radius sphere of thick smoke centered on a point you designate within 30 feet. The area is considered heavily obscured. The smoke lasts for 1 minute or until a wind of moderate or greater speed (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses it.
