I want to make a new Alchemist

[Sinful7]

So I want to make an alchemist, but i do not know what stats an alchemist needs, Im guessing Int,dex, str and some vit? but any and all help would be useful.

[Mr. Parker]

My advice? Go INT/VIT, with anything left over in dex. Alchemists aren't about in-your-face fighting. They're about using tactics and outside forces to disable their opponents. This is why Alchemists have homunculi and potion skills.

If I were you, I'd go for an INT/VIT alch with a Vanilmirth homonculus, and I'd also invest in a lot of +INT gear, then I'd get some spell scrolls like level 5 Firebolt, and that way you can assist the homonculus with attacking as well. Don't forget- acid terror is helpful too.
