Master Mixer
When you choose this archetype at 3rd level you have advantage when trying to identify the chemical makeup of an object. Creating mixtures with an alchemy kit takes half the normal time. Potions created by you add your proficiency bonus to their damage and healing.
Chemistry
You may use your action to haphazardly mix chemicals together in a flash. Roll on the chemistry table to see what concoction you’ve brewed up. The mixtures are very unstable and should be consumed within 1 minute. After 1 minute the potion dilutes into a foul-tasting liquid with no additional effects. If you spend your action to mix a potion you may use your bonus action to toss it or feed it to a teammate on the same turn. Each mixture takes 10 gold’s worth of ingredients that can be purchased anywhere alchemy supplies are sold. Alternatively, you may spend 2 hours in nature to harvest enough ingredients for 1 mixture.

New Bright Ideas come to you after a long rest.

Starting at 9th level, you wished for a way to administer potions from long range, so you created one! Mixtures can reliably be fired from a crossbow allowing you to administer aid and pain from a distance. Potions that once needed to be consumed may be shot with a dart that administers the fluids.
