Class Features
Prime Philosophy
Alchemists all study the same principles, but their approach to those studies can change their approach to life. These schools of thought are known as the prime philosophies, and all alchemists belong to one - whether they were taught by a master, or if they arrived at it by themselves.
- Reckless Experimenter: Pick a damage type out of the following: acid, fire, lightning. You gain resist 5 + one-half your level against that particular damage type.
- Relentless Tinkerer: After a short rest, you can exchange one at-will power that you know for another at-will power that you do not currently know. This does not change the total number of powers you can have at your current level.
