New Job: Chemist (Framework)

[Brightshadow]

Chemist is different enough to work in this game, Even if they got inspiration from a Chemist or Gambler for Astrologian it doesn't mean the job couldn't work. In my opinion Chemist is unique enough to work in the game, and it would be a shame if it never comes to the game since they are the second traditional healer of the series and have appeared since tactics as a healer.

I also made them different from Astrologian to have different enough from Astrologians, they use more a mudra system and they have a stacking mini divine seal effect on their heals, plus unique mix items that are different from what the Astrologian brings.

RPGamer: What was the inspiration for the creation of the new Astrologian class?

That almost makes it sound like they already had the resources for something along the lines of Chemist. Or at least the core concept in mind to make it later on.

I think at this point, with what demand the job has, something Chemist-like is an eventuality. It still needs a system more reliable than the Mudra system though just because of what issues are already present with it just for the job that currently uses it.

There were other interviews, some i think were video so i couldn't find them. You kind of get the sense that they just did a rename/re-art the stuff to fit an astrologian from chemist.
But there was an interview saying things along the lines of picking up random ingredients and having a set of skills to mix and cook them that turned into the cards
there were a couple that talked about trying to keep the class using a gun even after officially making it astro(including the one i posted)

I feel like chemist was very much developed and they just turned the potions into sparkles for lore

That doesn't mean you can create a class only one way.
