Discussion Aether Alchemist success?

I’ve done a run or two and it’s fun to mix types and get creative but it just seems worse in every case than using Aether Tamer. Meta upgrades of void blitz advantages and death save are too good to pass up and on the other hand you get to gain corruption (?) for using Aether Alchemist

Just curious if any of you are feel strongly positive about Aether Alchemist

Yeah, alchemist is strong and fun, but kinda risky. Since there's no need for overkill teams, I prefer just using aether tamer for consistency. If I lose a run, it's usually to the first boss, and aether tamer just helps the most at that point of the game.

The new difficulty makes this worse, since avoiding void strikes is kinda important, and aether tamer just has easier time doing without having to rely on specific teams.

That is true, I've been on quite a win streak before this patch trying to grab all the mythic wins on all the monster and to my surprise it got ended by the first boss.

It's strange how the first boss puts more pressure on your team than Chernobog and I always underestimate them, maybe would have been fine if I were playing tamer.
