The Guy in the Chair is gifted with supernatural intelligence. They excel at exploiting enemies' weaknesses and mitigating those of their allies.

Tool Proficiency

You are an invaluable guide to your fellow companions. When you adopt this specialization at 3rd level, you gain proficiency with navigator's tools. If you already have this proficiency, you gain proficiency with one other type of artisan’s tools of your choice.

Guy in the Chair Spells

Starting at 3rd level, you always have certain spells prepared after you reach particular levels in this class, as shown in the Alchemist Spells table. These spells count as artificer spells for you, but they don’t count against the number of artificer spells you prepare.

Analytical Mind

At 3rd level, your keen analytical mind allows you to quickly identify an enemy's strengths and weaknesses and turn them to your allies' advantage. As an action, you can analyze a creature you can see to learn its damage vulnerabilities, resistances, and immunities. Then, choose one of its damage resistances or immunities to suppress. For the next minute, you and your allies ignore the chosen resistance or immunity for that creature. If no resistances or immunities are revealed, you instead reduce the target's AC by 2 for the duration.

Only one creature can by analyzed at a time. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Starting at 9th level, you can also analyze and choose to negate condition immunities of the target creature.

Team Tactician

At 5th level, you are adept at elevating your allies on the battlefield.

You can use the Help action as a bonus action.

When you use the Help action to aid an ally in attacking a creature, the target of that attack can be within 15 feet of you, rather than within 5 feet of you. Additionally, you can help two allies targeting the same creature within range when you use the Help action this way.

Improved Analytics

Starting at 9th level, you have found new ways of weakening your enemies. You can now analyze and choose to negate condition immunities with the Analytical Mind feature.

Loyal Protector

At 15th level, you keep careful watch over your allies and give warning when harm is coming their way.

When an ally you can see within 30 feet of you is hit with an attack, you can use your reaction to halve the attack's damage against them.

Additionally, when an ally within 30 feet of you is subjected to an effect that allows them to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you can use your reaction to instead allow them to take no damage if they succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if they fail.
