That sounds very cool. Imagine something like holding a potion in one hand, weapon in the other, using your skill "potion imbue" (or something) and you smash the potion over the weapon. The alchemist can then go through his little song and dance, just for effect :lol: This will then give poison damage for a certain duration or life tap if it's a healing potion or whatever.
The weapon enhancer tree sounds cool too. Every melee fighter in the game will want an alchemist in their party. How you enhance the weapons might prove to be difficult. It could all be done in the cube, but then you have to lug the damn thing around with you.
ps: After I was complaining about the suckyness of throwing potions, I tried a potion throwing barbarian. It's crap. You hardly find potions, they don't do a lot of damage, and if you find potions, you can't "repair" them to replenish the quantity like throwing knives. I didn't bother to play past lvl 12 because the monsters were killing me too often. Throwing potions suck! But I want them to kick ass! Blizzard, please make an alchemist.
