Well a fire bomb/acid bomb is more like napalm than "a bouncing bag" in that when it explodes, it includes something physical that sticks to you and delivers the damage. That's how I've always seen it, anyway, and it makes sense in the fact that they're ranged touch attacks and not simple area-of-effect attacks (which Evasion helps against greatly).



You can pass your hand through a flame quickly and not get burned, but try the same trick through a mass of burning liquid and you will probably not be so lucky.



EDIT: Do NOT try these at home, at work, or anywhere else. If you do, the responsibility for your stupidity is yours alone.

What's "molten led"?  Did someone melt down a bunch of diodes?
