Tips and tricks
Because of his relatively poor armor, it is advisable to get some armor items or to refrain from harassing him in lane.
Due to Greevil’s Greed, Alchemists can farm faster than any other hero. Due to his fast farming, he may go for extended periods of time without engaging in combat before joining them.
Alchemist’s Ability
ACID SPRAY
Sprays acid at high pressure over a target area. Stepping across the polluted terrain causes enemy units to take damage per second and has a negative impact on their armor.
UNSTABLE CONCOCTION
An enemy hero can be stunned and damaged in the vicinity of an explosion by an unstable mixture that an alchemist has created and can toss at them. More damage is dealt and the stunned condition lasts longer as the mixture brews. The brew reaches its maximum damage and stun duration after 5.0 seconds. If the mixture isn’t tossed, it will explode on the Alchemist after 5.5 seconds.
GREEVIL’S GREED
Alchemist creates more gold from his adversaries and ransom runes. Alchemist gains basic bonus gold and additional bonus gold for each kill. Within the following 36 seconds, if Alchemist kills another unit that produces gold, Extra Bonus Gold is activated once more. Bounty runes also produce more gold as a result.
CHEMICAL RAGE
The base attack cooldown is lowered, movement speed is increased, and health regeneration is increased when the Alchemist puts his Ogre into a chemically induced rage.
BERSERK POTION – SHARD GRANTS NEW ABILITY
An ally receives a basic dispel, 50 Attack Speed, 30 Movement Speed, and 40 HP regen when an alchemist throws them a potion.
CHEMICAL RAGE – SCEPTER ABILITY UPGRADE
An allying hero receives all Aghanim’s Scepter improvements after an alchemist melts down the scepter. For each gifted Scepter, you will get extra damage and spell amplification once you have a Scepter of your own.
