Jobchange Guide

Changing into an Alchemist from a Merchant requires the player to complete a number of tasks:

• Item Collection
• Written Test
• Transformation Experiment

After completing these tests, the player will be transformed into an Alchemist.

Builds

Cart Revolution Build

• STR: 70-90
• AGI: 30-50
• VIT: 70-90
• INT: 1+
• DEX: 50
• LUK: 20-40

This build is centered around the Cart Revolution skill for AoEing groups of monsters at once. ASPD does help Cart Revolution spam rate, especially when pushing monsters against walls. Mammonite still provides high single target damage.

AGI Build

• STR: 70-90
• AGI: 80-99
• VIT: 50-70
• INT: 1
• DEX: 40-60
• LUK: 20-40

The AGI build is is usually recommended for newer players without funds. They have high ASPD and FLEE for quick single target killing, so it uses minimal HP / SP Healing Items. Their main method of attack is melee-ing single monsters, and sometimes utilize autocast gear. Alchemists do not have skills that increase flee rate (like a Thief's Improve Dodge, so it is recommended to use at least SOME sort of FLEE gear (such as Whisper carded garment).

Tank/Aid Potion Healer Support Build

• STR: 40+
• AGI: 70+
• VIT: 70-90
• INT: 1+
• DEX: 30-50
• LUK: 20-40

Acid Terror/Demonstration build

• STR: 80-90
• AGI: 1+
• VIT: 70-90
• INT: 1
• DEX: 30-50
• LUK: 20-40

This build is for rich players with a lot of funds that want to level faster.

Brewer

• STR: 1
• AGI: 1
• VIT: 1
• INT: 45
• DEX: 85 or 99
• LUK: 85 or 99

This has one of the highest success rates for Potion Creation, but requires a lot of leeching.

Equipment

Kingdom Guild Equipments Quests

Main article: Kingdom Guild

Kingdom Guild Equipment is a great series of starter equipment. All items have 1 slot, carry different bonuses, and are enchantable.

Homunculus System

Main article: Homunculus System

The Homunculus is a pet that kills, supports, and does everything for its master. An Embryo, from which a Homunculus will be born, can be created via Pharmacy with the following materials purchasable from the Al de Baran Material Seller, in the Alchemist guild alde_alche35179:

• Morning Dew of Yggdrasil
• Seed of Life
• Glass Tube
• Medicine Bowl
• Potion Creation Guide (not consumed)

Once an Embryo has been created (or purchased from another player), use the skill Call Homunculus to receive 1 of 4 types of Homunculus. The Homunculus received is random, and each type has two sprite variations. Much like Cute Pets, Homunculi need to be fed or they will leave their owner:

• Amistr: Zargon
• Filir: Garlet
• Lif: Pet Food
• Vanilmirth: Scell
