I think many shot or fusillade build is going to outkite and out kill an alchemist running and dropping vials any day. Particularly in low reapers.

Just like a fire sorc isn't even going to have to deal with any mob...

Not sure I understand.  Alchemist is FIRE SORC except you get the "nothing immune to my element at level 12 instead of 20".   I run through maps without stopping.. and I don't have to turn around and kite backwards as I can throw shit behind me as I'm running forward.

But maybe you are saying fusillade/many shot is also better than sorc.  your last comment is ambiguous.

Usually with sorc you have no mob issues.
Alchemist having to run means you are having mob issues *I did too that one life*.

Artificer never really had mob issues. Most stuff is dead even without a fusillade running.

Ranger just kites back a bit to deal with the mob. Usually very limited and just in the level range where you get slaughtered by spell casters if you aren't quick enough to eliminate them.

The real difference so far has been that with pure fire savant sorc you can solo ADQ/ZebawiRevenge.
One DbFB crit takes care of the queen.
On arty it's more challenging and really based on lack for evading the blades.

Alright, I thought you meant "kiting" as you could finish quest fast by kiting the mobs along and not stopping at all.
Not sure how you played alchemist, but in low reaper, I have never worried about mobs with alchemist (after level 12).

May not be able to 1 shot the queen on Epic Zawabi, but Alchemist solos Zawabi without any worries or concerns... and it is fast as well.
