After considering what requirement skills have (some skills can only be used with certain weapon types), the Weapon Search tool within the Project Zero Control Panel is very helpful. Generally, for physical classes (both melee and ranged), something with high [[ATK]] is best. For magic classes, something with high [[MATK]] is best.

The weapon used is primarily based upon one's build. For example, an Alchemist prioritizing [[AGI]] and [[ASPD]] should generally use [[One Handed Sword|Swords]]. Those preferring to maximize damage are better suited with [[Axe]]s. The following is a listing of the most common weapons and why they are beneficial:
 
 
 
==== Common Weapons ====
 
[[One Handed Sword|Swords]] are some of the most common among Alchemists primarily due to the relatively low [[ASPD]] delay as well as their moderate [[ATK]]. However, the player will be unable to benefit from having a [[Blacksmith]] partner, which is relatively rare. Also, because of the skill [[Axe Mastery]] it is evident that one will be able to bring out optimal damage from an [[Axe]]. However, Axes have a large [[ASPD]] delay, which means they swing slow but hard. On the positive side, players using Axes can not only benefit from [[Axe Mastery]] but also a [[Blacksmith]] partner.

<!--
 
* '''{{Item List |id=1130 |item=Nagan |simple=yes}}''': A sword that deals extra damage with Level 5 [[Double Attack]] and it's rather light, but it lacks of Card Slots. ([[ATK]] 120)
 
-->
 
 
* '''{{Item List |id=1360 |item=Two-handed Axe |simple=yes}}''': The best choice for [[element]]al weapons because they have the highest [[ATK]] among weapons [[Forging|forgable]] by [[Blacksmith]]s. However, they lack of Card Slots, so a study is required. ([[ATK]] 185)
 
 
==== Spell Weapons ====
 
* '''{{Item List |id=1366 |item=Light Epsilon |simple=yes}}''': An axe that allows the use of Level 3 [[Heal]]. ([[ATK]] 180, +3% damage to [[Demon]], [[Holy]] property)

* '''{{Item List |id=1131 |item=Ice Falchion |simple=yes}}''': A sword that allows to use Lv. 3 [[Cold Bolt]]. ([[ATK]] 100, [[Water]] property, may [[autocast]] Lv. 3 [[Cold Bolt]] while attacking)

Overview

The Alchemist is a class which optimizes Potion Creation and Homunculus, as well as various other potion-related skills. They are a class which work for the benefit of their friends and strike terror into the hearts of their foes (armor).

Jobchange Guide

See Alchemist Job Change Guide for detailed information.

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 Falcon Muffler or Whisper carded garment).

Useful Gear for AGI Builds:

Tank/Aid Potion Healer Support Build

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

Acid Terror/Bomb 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 or a lot of AFKing with a Homunculus. LUK may be preferable to DEX as most Gypsies and Minstrels have high DEX but do not have any LUK. Thus, when Marionette Control is used with this build, the Alchemist will receive a significant boost in DEX from the Gypsy or Minstrel, and the Alchemist's own LUK will further increase success rates for brewing.

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 Prepare Potion with the following materials purchasable from the Al de Baran Material Seller, in the Alchemist guild alde_alche35179:

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:
