20 Video Game Skills That Secretly Change The Game
9. Alchemy - Wizardry 8
Wizardry 8 is an old-school RPG set in a strange world combining elements of fantasy and sci-fi together. The game is considered a cult classic thanks to its in-depth party creation system, allowing you to make fully customized characters with dozens of races and classes to choose from.
There are fifteen classes in total, and while you might think the most important ones are those that can help you in combat, if you want to become insanely powerful right at the start, Alchemist is the way to go.
The Alchemist might seem like a weak class, offering mediocre stats that make them only decent in combat, but their primary skill of alchemy is secretly capable of breaking the game.
In theory, Alchemist is meant to be a utility character that brews potions for use in battle. However, because you’re not limited in how many potions you can make and the Alchemist can combine potions to make more powerful ones, you can quickly stack up on super expensive elixirs, sell them for a huge profit, and then start printing out money until you’re suddenly able to buy every endgame piece of equipment available.
The true power was the cash you made along the way.
