If you want to make healing supplies faster and save resources in Windrose, hiring a good alchemist early on can help you a lot. One of the best choices is Rosalinda Mercer, thanks to the strong bonuses she brings to crafting. Once you recruit and assign her properly, there will be a good improvement in your alchemy output. This guide will walk you through how to hire an Alchemist Worker in Windrose.
How to Hire an Alchemist Worker
First, you need to unlock Tortuga by finishing the quest, “How My Sea Adventure Began.” Afterwards, go to the marketplace and move towards the bottom part close to the coastline. You will see a small booth made of wood sheltered by a clothed roof. This is where Rosalinda is standing. She can only be hired by spending 500 silver paisters.
Once you hire her, she is sent to your camp. You need to place her yourself manually. Head over to your alchemy table, click on workers, and place her there. Her bonuses are going to take effect as soon as she is placed. Even her status will be visible with the help of an icon. The only thing you need to ensure is that you have an empty specialist slot on board or else you have to move out one of the basic workers.
The first bonus is that Rosalinda Mercer offers two unique advantages, making alchemy much easier. Her Master Bottle Maker talent allows you to create twice the number of clay bottles when crafting them, saving both materials and effort. Second, she provides you with a 30% chance to receive an additional elixir during crafting. With this combination of perks, you will be able to prepare your healing potions much more efficiently without spending additional resources.
