There are 2 main roles a biochemist can take during War of Emperium on iRO Classic.
As a Biochemist only has 1 base VIT, it is mostly immune to Acid Bomb from other Biochemists. A damage dealing Biochemist positions itself at the front of the guild with the scholars.
These Biochemists should be permanently under sacrifice from a Paladin. Targets are ideally called out by the guild to synchronize the removal of opponent sacrifice and maximize damage.
Priority targets would be opposing VIT based classes, Paladins, Scholars, Assassin Cross, Lord Knights and Performers. High Wizards who get VIT will drop fast to acid bomb.
The biochemist should friend targets for Full Chemical Protection prior to WoE starting and use the friend window and party window to buff their guildmates.
Likewise this allows the guildmates to use a /hi macro on Alt+# to request a Full Chem buff quickly and easily.

*With Mega Resist Potion an alternative hat with Stalactic Golem card can be used, such as Ulles Cap or St Patrick's Day Hat.
DD biochemist skill build is straightforward, with Acid Bomb 10, Full Chemical Protection 4 and Aid Condensed Potion 10. This allows the chemist to help support the guild if needed.
First class skills are a personal preference, provided Enlarge Weight Limit and Push Cart are maxed out.
The Full Support Biochemist stays in the middle of the group and will use Aid Condensed Potion when the guild is taking damage. It has high ASPD and DEX so it may cast rapidly.
The biochemist should friend targets for Full Chemical Protection prior to WoE starting and use the friend window and party window to buff their guildmates.
Likewise this allows the guildmates to use a /hi macro on Alt+# to request a Full Chem buff quickly and easilly.

Full Support Biochemists should get Full Chemical Protection maxed as well as Aid Condensed Potion, though they will omit Acid Bomb due to their low INT. First class skills are a personal preference, provided Enlarge Weight Limit and Push Cart are maxed out.
