Can Inspired Chemist take the Inspired Alchemy feat?

[fruscht]

Inspired Chemist is an alchemist archetype that can create Inspiring Cognatogen, a mutagen replacement that grants him inspiration and inspiration pool.

One of the prerequisites for the Inspired Alchemy feat is the Inspiration class feature.

Also, can he use inspiration on attack rolls and saving throws?

Thanks! :)

Anyone, please? Bump for another try.

The mutagen is to temporary to allow you to use it to qualify for abilities. It would require to last longer then 24 hours in order for that to work, And that would only be if the Inspiring Cognatogen actually gave you the class feature, not something similar.

I don't have the book on me so I can't comment on that last bit. However the temporary nature of it alone would disqualify you to take the feat.

Edit : so it indeed does seem to give you the class feature.

However from what I can see, you can only make your mutagens last for 20h (Persistent Mutagen) + 200 minutes (racial bonuses) + 20 minutes (trait)

Which would leave you 20 minutes short of 24 hours

Tnx for your answer! :)

Hm, I found this:

But Sean also says the Alchemist can take Weapon Focus (claws) with Feral Mutagen.

Inspiring Cognatogen (Su): An alchemist with this discovery leans how to make an inspiring cognatogen, a mutagen-like mixture that grants him inspiration (as the investigator’s class feature) at the expense of Strength and Constitution.

EDIT: When I first replied, I didn't see the edited version of your post.
Hm, so no 24 hours, no prerequisite? Bah :(
Oh, well, what can you do...
