Progression and Strategy[]

Chemistry is easy to level, especially if the player is willing to purchase crafting materials. If no other place is available, the basement of The Lodge is a good place to craft.

Chemistry items can give the player some strong temporary buffs, but those buffs come with risks. The player can gain an Affliction which can be annoying to get rid of. Alternatively, Chemistry can be used to gain more money from crafting materials the player harvests. Chemistry is a crafting-focused ability that crafting players will enjoy.

Chemistry partners well with Research Methods.
