Have you played a Promethian Alchemist? If so, How did it go and what did you do in combat with the alchemist?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


So, I'v been looking at the Promethean Alchemist archetype and was curious if anyone here has played one? If you have played it, How did it go? What did your alchemist do in combat without bombs or mutagen? Did you like playing it?


I've designed several of them as a GM and even played one in the past. Losing the Mutagen and Bombs wasn't that big of a deal, especially when you got an extra warm (?) body that added to the action economy every round. And one that starts off with an decent intelligence score (for a companion).

I tend to design the alchemist and its companion to work together, often with teamwork feats. You can slightly abuse the craft construct rules for modifying your companion to add some interesting abilities.


It seems realy cool! I alwaysd liked classes with companions, And Alchemist is by far my favorite class.

Using teamwork feats does sound like a good idea, Thanks!
