Alchemist Dedication Feat Clarification


Rules Discussion


I was looking at the Alchemist dedication feat and there is a conflict between the wording of the feat and the Infused Reagents Class feature it references.

Alchemist Dedication: "You gain the alchemist's infused reagents class feature, gaining a number of reagents each day equal to your level."

Infused Reagents: "Each day during your daily preparations, you gain a number of batches of infused reagents equal to your level + your Intelligence modifier."

Is this a mistake or is the dedication intentionally lower than the standard class feature?


It is possible it's a typo. But I wouldn't expect someone who takes a dedication to be as good as a main class alchemist. So it could very well be intentional.

We'd need a dev to chime in.

It's lower, just like spellcaster multiclasses gain fewer spell slots than the parent class.

The dedication is bascally saying "you get the Infused Reagents class feature, but only a number of daily reagents equal to your level".

It could be worded better, thouh (they did it with the rogue archetype's Sneak Attacker feat).


Thanks guys.

I figured that was the case, but it was worth checking.


Having a familiar is really useful when dabbling in alchemy as you can get an extra infused reagent per day from your familiar coughing it up.
