Seems like we should be seeing Alchemist news soon. Has anyone heard anything recently?
Happy gaming,

They did publish some concept art for the class...
We haven't heard anything since that short interview with Draculetta. A basic rundown of what we currently know:
- Support caster with 3 trees: some sort of bombardier (throwing alchemical grenades or explosion-based spells?), a poison-based tree (probably a dps-oriented tree with darts as specialization), and a buff/support tree (healing, buff potions, etc is what I'm guessing). As long as we get a tree named apothecary, I'm happy.
- Over 90 new spells unique to alchemists with a complicated mixture/reaction system for casting them.
- Not your standard potion-chucker like artificer: there will be rolling potions on the ground, splashing them in front of you, etc.
- They can mix their own, specialized potions to hand out to party members.
- They'll feature poison damage more so than other classes. They'll also feature the use of darts as weapons.

This is all still pretty accurate. Also, you're going to be happy.
Thiiiiis one's more of a stretch goal in some regards, less than 100% of their spells involve throwing & even if we don't get things like rolling, we hope to make some adjustments to admixture throwing speed, arc, etc.
We don't only build for the builds that exist.
We don't only build for the builds that are good right now.
The fact that some changes are necessary is not diminished by the fact that other necessary changes have not happened yet.
I asked if they could have a pet dog named Alexander, but that was a no.
Reminds me of the game "King's Bounty : Armored Princess" ... It had some kind of flask-throwing Alchemist, too ... Together with a "blubb" sound ...
Why not Anaximander, then ? Sounds at least similar ...

"You are a Tiefling. And a Cleric, with the Domain of the Sun. Doesn't that contradict each other ?" "No, all my friends are playing evil. I found that so boring that I decided to be on the good side. And, besides, Sun and Fire, where is the difference, really ?"
They should have a Homunculus named Opqaizqakkel.

A definite tease by the devs....but I’ll wait to be happy! Looking forward to seeing information however!
...I didn't waste my time on ultimate completionist, triple completionist, or even plain old completionist.
I have absolutely ZERO interest in playing such a moronic class like Alchemist.
Throwing potions (bomb-like), throwing darts (as DPS no less!), and making buffing potions?
NFW!
I feel like Alchemist is a waste of Dev development time and Player playing time.
Is there any sort of tentative release date for this? 1 month, 2 months, 3 months? Something a little more precise than "later this year"?
I want to do an iconic build that needs a +1 heart, but I want to play Alchemist right when it comes out. I will not be a happy camper if Alchemist is released a week after I burned a +1 heart. I'm sure I'm not the only one that would like a little heads up on the release date.
