Useful Notes

  • The Alchemist is often paired with the Philosopher's Stone as this item refreshes the Alchemist's ability potions every three nights that the stone is held consecutively, in addition to giving a random Potion every two nights. These potions stack when the Alchemist holds the stone for 3 nights (unlike the Potion of Restoration). They can be "saved" and don't need to be spent before they get refreshed.
  • The Alchemist can transmute and purge on the same night.
  • Transmuting happens at the end of the night, so the targeted player will still be able to use their ability on the night it takes place.
  • If the transmute ability is redirected to a non-coven player, nothing happens and the Alchemist is able to transmute again the following night.
  • The transmute ability is able to re-roll a Coven player into any Coven role, except a Puppetmaster. In addition, you can re-roll into the same role. Any limited use abilities are refreshed.
  • The Alchemist's potions cannot be stolen, as they are not items.
  • In addition to night immune roles, Familiars are also immune to the purge action.
