Geomancer and Chemist - A Better Idea

[Reynhart]

We’ll continue forward under the general assumption that, much as Bards and Machinists have functionally infinite ammo, Chemist wouldn’t actually be limited to effects related to consumables – although I would consider that the first nail in its coffin, considering the most basic and iconic element of the job would be entirely ignored in its creation.

Chemist could be limited by consumables, but not the same consumables that every job uses. Those specific consumables would be abilites, with their number of charges. Basically, your chemist would have 10 potions, 5 remedies, 8 ethers, 3 phoenix-downs, 1 elixir, etc...And, instead of refilling over time, you would have a backpack skill, that would refill all the charges. And the complexity of the job would be how you distribute all your item charges until the next backpack.

And yes (Take a sip), Mix would be used to consume several charges to make another effect. Like two charges of potions doing a mega-potion or two charges of phoenix down doing a mega-phoenix...
