Alchemists are masters of brewing herbs and chemicals into potions, medicines, poisons, elixirs, ethers, and other useful objects. Wielding their trusty alembics and mortars, alchemists can brew up just about anything they desire if they have the proper ingredients. Their guild, currently led by Severian in Ul’dah, is very well respected for their ability to cure illnesses, grant strength through a simple drink, or to provide subtle poisons to be used against enemies.

Alchemy pairs well with Botany and Fishing but will also benefit from goldsmithing, blacksmithing, armorsmithing, leatherworking, and weaving in order to make the gear that alchemists use to enhance their skills.
