The publication explores five distinct Alchemist builds: Base Alchemist, Moonshiner, Plague Lord, Arsonist, and Many-Faced Menace. Each section outlines build-specific capabilities, emphasizing how skill combinations and archetype features influence tactical choices.
The Base Alchemist is presented as a balanced combatant capable of switching between melee and ranged attacks. The Moonshiner leverages potion creation and multiclass synergies to support allies, while the Plague Lord focuses on poison and disease effects, including those that impact undead enemies. The Arsonist prioritizes high-damage bomb attacks. inally, the Many-Faced Menace specializes in disguise and infiltration while maintaining combat efficiency.
Beyond build summaries, the guide covers the use of bombs and mutagens — two defining features of the Alchemist class. It provides detailed insights into how discoveries affect progression, class synergy, and multiclass potential. Additional sections address commonly debated topics such as alchemy versus traditional spellcasting, team coordination for the Grenadier archetype, and the Chirurgeon's role in group composition.
The publication also contextualizes Alchemists within the broader Pathfinder 1E system, acknowledging the game's flexibility and complexity. Players often highlight the challenge of managing its extensive customization options. To support this, the guide includes comparative analyses of Alchemist builds to help players achieve a balance between complexity and effectiveness.
"We created this guide to give players clear information about Alchemist options," said a Stellar Dragon Games representative. "It allows players to compare builds, understand trade-offs, and make informed decisions that align with their playstyle."
