Alchemical Fire Mastery item has incorrect description

I don't know if it's been brought up before, but the Master Alchemist class ability Alchemical Fire Mastery creates vanilla Perfected Alchemist Fire that deals 2d6 damage, if the item card is accurate.*

I've looked around, but I can only find the Grenade Alchemist Fire anywhere (Or fire bombs), that deal substantially more damage as seems standard for this server.

Attached is a picture of the two in comparison.
On the Left is the one that the feat makes; on the Right is the one can can be obtained on the server through other means.

Suffice to say, 2d6 damage for 150 gold is ... piddling? compared to the HP of just about everything outside low level zones, and seems quite lackluster when compared to similar abilities like the Gondsman Bombs that deal 13d6 for a similar class investment.

[Addendum:] Per suggestion and testing listed in posts below, the script seems right but the item card is very wrong.

* : The item card may not be accurate - which would still imply a bug in need of fixing.

From what I hear, it's just the description that's wrong? That the crafted ones do as much damage as the looted ones.

Thank you for your post.

I was mostly saving it for weapon damage, due to the description, but based on what you said, I went out to test on zombies in the Graveyard.

Testing revealed that it did 36 damage to a group and 58 damage on a direct hit, so it may well be that the script is correct.
That does make it all the more apparently, though, that the item-card is vastly inaccurate and misleading.

I will update the bug to make it clear that it is the next and probably not the script that is the issue.
