Hey, quick question, if a class (like the demoniac) has no prereqs for spellcasting, doesnt define what kind of spellcasting, but gives spells per level, could an alchemist use that to improve his extracts or bombs per level or both? I believe that an alchemists extracts+bombs and say a sorcerers spells are comprable. That said, I'm not Clout, so I'd like to know if I were to take levels in something like the demoniac as an alchemist, that I'd be balanced and fair. Keep in mind the alchemist gets discoveries, advanced mutagens, an extra level of "casting", poison misc, and fast alchemy. We should take a look at these. The AlchemistThe Master Chymist, the only RAW Alchemist PrC at the moment The Demoniac, a vague "spellcasting" PrC Personally, I think it's a bit unfair that the Alchemist and has no where to go as far as PrCs go. I know this wouidn't be RAW, but this wouldn't be much of a stretch, considering the class doesn't even require a level of casting. If a Magistrate could let me know what the deal was, that'd be awesome. Thanks! Nai

If it helps i would have to say no, the +1 level of existing class does not work with alchemist. My reasoning is because the feat arcane strike www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/combat-feats/arcane-strike-combat does not work with alchemists as well as they do not have caster levels and do not cast spells. I would also like to point out that prestige classes aren't designed to make characters more powerful, they are designed to give a character more flavor and go down a path a core class simply doesn't take them.
