The Alchemist

Adds a class based on Plague Doctor's Alchemist path in Darkest Dungeon 2.

Most of her skills are the same as base Plague Doctor, but with the following changes:

General: +4 HP, -1.5 avg base DMG. Skills with -100% DMG mod can CRIT.

Noxious Blast and Plague Grenade: Bonus Blight chance vs Bleeding. Fire Attack debuffs increase blight duration (+1.3% Duration per +1% DMG).

Blinding Gas: Stun removed, debuffs accuracy and speed instead. Small chance to mark. Can now CRIT. No use limit.

Incision: Bonus Bleed chance and duration vs marked. Clears Mark on hit.

Battlefield Medicine: Heals a bit more.

Emboldening Vapours: Lasts 3 rounds. Usage limit removed. Cures Stun. Buffs healing received from Battlefield Medicine

Disorienting Blast: Does not shuffle, stun, or clear corpses. Reworked into a damaging fire attack with damage mod -30% and crit mod +5%. Increases target damage taken from fire attacks by 50% and reduces target speed by 4.

Her other skills are from DD2:

Ounce of Prevention: Buffs party's blight, bleed, debuff and disease resistance.

Cause of Death: Single-target fire attack. Fire Attack debuffs increase Crits Received Chance in addition to Damage Received (+1% CRIT per +5% DMG). Bonus damage vs Bleeding. Ignores PROT vs Blighted.

Magnesium Rain: Single-target fire attack. Fire Attack debuffs increase Crits Received Chance instead of Damage Received (+1% CRIT per +5% DMG). Applies Blight against bleeding. Applies Bleed against blighted.

Indiscriminate Science: Small single-target heal; removes mark, stealth, guarded, stun and (clearable by herbs) debuffs. Bonus healing vs marked, stealthed guarded and stunned. Healing is also increased by certain buffs and debuffs on the target:



Final values are rounded to the nearest 5%. Conditional buffs and debuffs (ex: DMG vs Bleeding) don't count, and neither do buffs not from skills (such as camp, town, curio and item buffs). Currently this applies to de/buffs from vanilla, DLC, and the following mods.
