Hi. So I'm relatively new to Pathfinder, I mostly know D&D 5e but some of my friends in a clan of Kingdom of Loathing are looking at doing an all Goblin PC campaign where we defend an ancient Six Pack from the racist Paladins D:<

I was wondering a few things, mostly how to sorta optimize my character. We haven't rolled scores yet so I can't provide those. However, I definitely want to be a Fire Bomber Alchemist, and I wouldn't mind using a torch for a weapon. I know that means getting some feats for torches but I have no idea the order, and I might have missed some stuff. We were also all allowed to pick another Goblin racial without replacing so I picked Eat Anything because it is funny. I have no other plans to replace Goblin racials, but still have no idea on traits.

Basically what I'd like to know are torch feats, fire feats, traits, spells, and the order in which to get all of these things. Thank you in advance :)

EDIT: I think I might actually like to be an item creation person since my DM says we can totally make items. I wanna make all the flaming weapons for my Goblin brethren! c:

There are several goblin specific feats that boost this.The fire bomber alchemist class even lets you take them in place of a discovery.

Burn! Burn! Burn! (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/racial-feats/burn-burn-burn-goblin)
Fire Hand (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/racial-feats/fire-hand-combat-goblin)(can't be taken as a discovery)
Fire Tamer (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/racial-feats/fire-tamer-goblin)
Flame Heart (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/racial-feats/flame-heart-goblin)

You also want the explosive (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/discoveries/paizo---alchemist-discoveries/explosive-bomb) and inferno bomb (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/discoveries/paizo---alchemist-discoveries/inferno-bomb) discoveries. The focused burn (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/traits/magic-traits/focused-burn)trait will also help.

That is about what I already knew as is :P though I wasn't aware of Focused Burn. Thanks for that one :)

Updated the first post about how I want to take item creation feats too. It doesn't necessarily have to be wands and staves because I'm sure we will find those if needed because the DM seems to want this to be especially fun. However I would like to be able to make magical weapons and wondrous items at the least. What kind of stuff should I do for that? :o
