Yeah but it seems that after u use it you need to rest again... Seriously this game is so great, but so many retarded decisions were made - why for example crafting of mutagens is not possible? Would be soo much realistic....

The Once/day thing was from the original tabletop rules, not the developers:

At 1st level, an alchemist discovers how to create a mutagen that he can imbibe in order to heighten his physical prowess at the cost of his personality. It takes 1 hour to brew a dose of mutagen, and once brewed, it remains potent until used. An alchemist can only maintain one dose of mutagen at a time—if he brews a second dose, any existing mutagen becomes inert. As with an extract or bomb, a mutagen that is not in an alchemist’s possession becomes inert until an alchemist picks it up again.

Though I think it would have made sense if there were an 'Extra Mutagen' feat that let you use it an extra time per day for every time you took it. (similar to the extra channel, etc feats)

But that would break the game!

play a pure alchemist :)
Level 14 - persistent Mutagen (1h/level) on top of Greater & Grand (+True) Mutagen)
... ^.^
[one-hit wonder or 10 minute multiclasses often have a harder time, if you consider buff duration+power ...]

edit: do people even read, what their class has to offer or do they just blindly copy & paste builts, that someone posted and more people copied so it went famous and just because..? Single classes are uttermost strong up to challenging...srsly

In this CRPG you can clear a lot of encounters in 10 minutes. Far more than you can clear in the tabletop game, so you're already better off than you would normally be. Unless you're only taking a 1 level alchemist dip, the timer rapidly becomes longer than you need to clear a map.

please post a video of you clearing Vordekai, Armags, Lamashtu, Pitax + other stuff within 10 minutes each..thank you very much! I can do all of them without ever considering a rest...
Most encounters with a few exceptions are nonsense anyway, to even considered to be a challenge for 10 minute stuff....just saying

On what difficulty? I only play unfair, so it takes longer for me.

^I know, that you only play unfair by now ^^ some builts are also pretty impressive, if I'd ever consider the challenge, that lays ahead....but those times are gone; guess IWD2:HoF & DA:O nightmare (+CR mod) were my last challenges, I did for _me_ :P
(and challenging is really easy sometimes...compared to my last runs in oct/sep 2018 and things were made super easy as well...teleport anyone?)

You could try rereading my post more carefully. I said "a lot of encounters" not "every map". If you only have 1 level of alchemist by the time you're clearing those zones, you've taken a 1 level dip to unlock various benefits but it's not the core of your character. Pop it when you need that extra boost, just as you pop the shorter duration 1 minute/lvl and 1 round/lvl stuff when you need them. If you want to have all your buffs up for the entire map then yes, for the biggest zones, you'll have to rest or rely on scrolls and pots. If you've taken more than 1 level of alchemist it won't be your alchemist buff running out first.

^a lot of encounters can be chained to be taken by 3-6 without resting...either way, it's going again into the 1/x/y built scenario discussion....
