Point To Note On Alchemist
Do not reply to letters, just talk to your father
As an Alchemist, if you reply to letters or talk to your siblings, it will max out your Relationship and stops you from increasing Production Level. You can technically decrease Relationship value, but it is recommended you do not reply to letter as Alchemist, and not talk to any family aside your father.
You will not be able to backtrack and receive recipes after Production Level increases
Alchemist has a set of recipes obtained per Production Level. You will need to visit your father every time once the level increases to obtain the said recipe. For example, if you skip talking to your father upon reaching Level 11, and increased your production level to Level 12, you will not be able to obtain the "Ring of Invincibility" recipe, but instead will obtain the "Greatest Weapon" recipe.
Point To Note After Obtaining Recipe
The "Ring of Invincibility" recipe and "Greatest Weapon" recipe can only be obtained once per save. It is to be noted that item recipes can be transferred to other character, but crafted items are character bound. Be sure to transfer the recipe first before crafting to your desired character.
