Alchemist tumor familiar with touch injection


Advice


So in the process of rebuilding a PFS character (who qualified for a full rebuild - at level 11 so it has been complex) I am looking at Alchemist as an option for him and had the following thought.

If he takes tumor familiar as a discovery and the infusion discovery and casts touch injection (but shares it with his familiar) how can he take advantage of the action economy this could offer.

Not via quesrionable abuses like having the familiar touch an enemy and deliver poly purpose paneca or skinsend but via the far simpliar route of delivering an infusion to the alchemist.

Ideas:

- channel vigor (so have better saves or haste up without spending an action buffing)
- an admixture (again to start using it a round earlier)
- boring but perhaps useful - healing (but boring can save your life)
- displacement or another defensive buff
- polymorph spell?

Seems like for rounds per level buffs this could offer great action economy. And even for minute per level buffs that you might not always be able to cast ahead of combat (though at level 11 11 minutes is often enough time for multiple encounters)

Are there other options I should consider (either extracts or useful potions or other touch injection possible options like potions etc). But generally potions I would probably prefer to drink via alchemical allocation (and enhance potion discovery) for long lasting buffs at the cost of acquiring the potion once.

And are there any games to play via various methods to combine alchemical items (via magic items probably won’t take the discovery)
