Conversely, some skills and effects are not worth making a build around.
Here are 5 great Alchemy builds you could use inThe Witcher 3and 5 builds you should avoid.
With the right arsenal, bombs can be just as viable as using swords inThe Witcher 3.
Perks like Pyrotechnics make bombs deal significantly more damage to enemies.
9Avoid: Poison
Part of the Oil Preparation treeis the ability to coat your blades in poison.
While this sounds fun, making a build around this unique mechanic isn’t the best idea.

It just doesn’t work well for Alchemists.
7Avoid: Adaptation
Mutating Witcher DNA is partly why Witchers are so good at slaying monsters.
One such skill is Adaptation, extending the active duration of all mutagen decoctions by 50%.
With how insane decoctions can be, having them last longer sounds like an amazing idea.
The issue is that using potions in conjunction with this will require resting to refill your potions.
Stay away from builds using this skill.

Surely Alchemy can help with that, right?
It’s best to focus solely on Signs or do another build entirely.
Whirl is also fantastic with this build, letting you repeatedly strike targets that surround Geralt.
At that rate, why are you using Alchemy?
This is the best build inThe Witcher 3, hands down.
Alchemy has too many skills that need to be invested into for it to be good hybrid potential.
Alchemy revolves around consuming potions and decoctions while keeping your toxicity under the maximum, else Geralt will die.
