3. So you're saying chemist would be the same as all healers just because it enchants liquids with magic incantations instead of potion vials/bottles?

A DoW healer will never exist, unless you add magic to it that's what chemist ends up being; DoW.
SWTOR = Star wars the old republic; it's an mmorpg about star wars which uses mech for everything.
You can't just fob off any techy suggestions with a glib reference to scifi.
You've heard of magitek right? It's a pretty big Final Fantasy staple, in literally every Final Fantasy game. The fusion of magic and technology.
A techy chemist fits that concept perfectly and it wouldn't take much lore explanation at all.
People wouldn't be suggesting chemist as a gun toting techy job if it wasn't already a recurring job in that exact form either.
Are you sure you know what Final Fantasy is? Because it sounds like you want to play LotR.
