Actually, it stacks with alchemists.

If it were more expensive it would be a bad deal, but at only 6 gems with a hammer, it has plenty of niche. Even in normal games, there is often the need to alchemize the occasional fire gem to make ends meet, and in some extreme cases (late game post Armageddon, la Rl'yeh or Ermor) gold alchemy can be quite significant.
