A periodic table.

Chemist? I don't follow...You mean alchemist? @.@;

See, this is why I would use the name Apothecary or Salve-maker for a hypothetical Healer job. It's too confusing otherwise.

An Alembic. We already have chemists. /endthread

"guns" that shoot potions. they would be "casters" so they would have to load the guns every time. the game has one-handed swords and two-handed swords, it can deal with two-handed guns too.

I know what they were meaning. Secondly: I Highly, HIGHLY doubt we'll ever get a 'chemist' battle job on top of having an alchemist crafting job. That would just be ridiculously redundant. Hence why I said the only weapon a 'chemist' will have is an Alembic. Sorry to burst bubbles.

No bubbles burst! I have to say I do like the idea of throwing potions at mobs LOL xD drink an elixer and go berserk like u see in Astrix & Obelix :

It wouldn't be redundant at all. One's specialised in crafting, the other is specialised in combat. Aside from being a combat job in other Final Fantasy titles, it's a trope in other JRPG's as well. Octopath Traveler has them in the form of 'Apothecary'. They mix potions in battle to heal or deal damage and they wield an axe as their weapon of choice. Xenoblade Chronicles has character that acts as a 'chemist' who shoots healing projectiles at her allies and damaging bullets at her enemies. In short, there's plenty of ways in which a chemist based job could be implemented.
