I must be Missing Something...

There are remove paralysis potions in the game which only affect those who drink them. How is this helpful since someone who is paralyzed can take no actions, and thus cannot drink the potion?

you can throw potions on others with alchemist, they even have feats to improve throwing potions

[Stink Bug]

You don't need an alchemist, potions have a little tab at the top of the icon while in a quickslot that allow a character to "feed" it to another.

Then they could drink the potion, but wouldn't need it.

Afaik only "throwable" potions are throwable... Those potions will be "used". E. G. you use it out of your belt. You're NOT equipping it, as a weapon as Alchemist. But if you use a drinking potion, you will drink it, not throw it.

But if there is a special "use on others" icon, this solves the problem, doesn't it? (It probably won't be thrown in that case, but works more like the normal heal wounds spell.)

The alchemist has e special feat, where he can use his spells on others. Normally, the alchemist spells are just buffs and work only personally. (You can select this feat as normal alchemist or you will get it automatically as the chirurg-subclass.)

Interesting never knew you could feed a potion to someone else... Will have to try that. This is one of those items that would be nice to add to the tutorial.

it was a jab on alchemist because he throws everything, like his bombs or his extracts, alchemist starts out with a feat called throw anything and even has a class specific mythic feat option called throw elixier
and also i was talking about enhance and extend potion feats not about the infusion feat

but if my original post was not seriously enough, than i'm sorry

Outside of combat, you can also use potions by selecting a character on the inventory screen and using it from the belt or form your inventory there. Even if the selected character is paralyzed or otherwise unable to move. At that point I think it's assumed someone else feeds them the potion. You cal use this to have an unconcious person chug potions of healing as well.

Well, in German, this is called "imprvisierter Fernkampf" which means "imprivised ranged combat". And it buffs attacks with physical bombs and the bomb-abiltiy he has. "throw anything" is quite a wrong term imho.
Also, you can't use your spells on others, except you have a special achlimistic discovery unlocked ("holding extracts" or something like that. I don't know, what it is called in english...) You can use your spells on others, then, They will exactly function like the original spell with that feat, so they even get a greater range than melee, if the original spell has that. The chriurg gets this automatically. All others must select it.

Enhance and extend... potions are other alchimistic discoveries. But those make potions stronger and the effect longer. What feat, you're seeking is "holding extracts" or something like that, as I said above.

When I remember correctly from the discriptions, then only the discoveries, which change the bombs are called infusions. (I remember dark, that I read "you can only use one infusion". But the discoveries, which affects your spells are passive and work all together, afaik., So they aren't the infusions meant in that case...)

No need for excuses :) The forum is for sharing infos.

Thanks for sharing the German. I think imprvisierter Fernkampf is a more precise term for the intended meaning.
