Specialized Basic Alchemical Benefits & Alchemical Crafting


Rules Discussion


Hello

My question is with regards to dedications that gives a character "basic alchemical benefits" but also list some sort of restriction.

As an example; the Herbalist Dedication says the following: "You can create remedies and other herbal products. You gain the basic alchemy benefits, though they apply only for herbal items: alchemical items with the healing trait, plus antidote and antiplague."

Since this gives you 'basic alchemy benefits', you gain the 'alchemical crafting' feat. However, the dedication has the caveat that you can only use it on specific items.

So using my example, if I take the "herbalist dedication", can I take 'alchemical crafting' again so that I may learn to craft other alchemical items or am I locked out of that since 'alchemical crafting' does not have "SPECIAL: You may take this feat multiple times"?


The limitation as to which items you can create only affects the use of infused reagents. You get the Alchemical Crafting feat independent from that and can craft any type of alchemical items via downtime crafting as normal.


I agree it only affects the use of infused reagents.

As you also mentioned, knowing you can't take the same feat twice, unless the feat says so, you'd be unable to get it ( or worse, you'd have to get it before getting the herbalist dedication, which is even sillier ).
