Iconic for alchy?

[Sonoma]

Apparently the new alchemist is Int to everything. I was thinking of doing an Iconic with alchy as main class, which suggests deep gnome or sunlord, the only +2 int races.

The sunlord cleric base might contribute better to the alchy support features, and the racial tree has good cores but somehow the cleric/alchemist mix doesn't feel right. Wisdom and charisma needed for cleric stuff, int for alchemist.

The gnome strikes me as a 'natural' for alchy (visually at least). Starts as wizard (illusion) so Int all the way, maybe gnome vampire potion pusher? (Thank Unbongwah for that image)

I'm 4 lives from finishing my racials, want to do some more iconics and get my class completionist back at the same time.

Has anyone done any theory builds on alchemist yet?

Hi there.

Not iconic but also Drow.

On Lama I ran a 12 Alch/7 Wiz/1 Arti, VC Inqui PM. Worked pretty nicely, just like you'd expect. PM provided lots of self healing, Inqui provided high ROF (you could do it Darts too I bet, I just never got around to trying that) for lots of Poison imbue damage, and everything scaled off Negative spellpower items. Also traps and evasion.

IIRC I was 41 Inqui 8 Harper (Alch gives INT to hit) 7 PM 26 VC, for the D8 core and immune break.

Probably would be overshadowed by a pure Alch Darter for pure DPS though, just because of being able to get the capstone for the poison imbue and all the extra shots...but that precludes Iconics without a Heart

Gnome dagger/dart thrower since Zombie form won’t reduce your thrown weapon speed.

Expect something less synergic. Like Sunelf cleric. Or others that looks like good but its way better being something else Like PDK fighter.

There is also one that we still do not have. May be one the most famous one aswell.

A Yugoloth Alchemist.
