World of Warcraft Alchemy Profession Guide Alchemy allows the player to make potions for himself and others. He is also able to transmute certain essences into different types of essences and gems into Meta Gems. As an alchemist your main source of materials comes from Herbalism. Alchemy is one of the most desired professions for raiders. Since you are able to make long duration, persist through death stat potions and healing/mana potions. Alchemy isn't a "required” profession to maximize your characters potential, like Enchanting and Jewelcrafting but it gives you the extra “Umph” that you need on certain raids. Alchemy Paths Elixir Master: Allows the Alchemist to sometimes create an extra elixir when brewing high level elixirs. To become a Elixir Master you must accept the quest from the Alchemy Trainer in Thrallmar or Honor Hold. Take this quest to Shattrath and accept the followup. For the followup you need;
The Essence of Infinity's can be found from the portal guardians in The Black Morass. Potion Master: Allows the Alchemist to sometimes create an extra potion when brewing high level potions. To become a Potion Master you must accept the quest from the Alchemy Trainer in Thrallmar or Honor Hold. Take this quest to Cenarion Refuge and accept the followup. For the followup you need;
In order to get the Field Guide you must kill High Botanist Freywinn in Botanica. Trasmutation Mastery: Allows the Alchemist to sometimes get greater results when transmuting materials. To specialize in Trasmuting you will need to accept the quest from the Alchemy Trainer in Thrallmar or Honor Hold. Take this quest to Netherstorm and accept the followup. For the followup you will need:
Alchemy 1 - 210 Alchemy 1 - 60 Craft - Materials Required:
For the first 60 points of Alchemy you will be making Minor Healing Potions. These are extremely easy to make as all they require is Peacebloom and Silverleaf which can be purchased from the Auction House for extremely cheap prices or gathered from all 1 - 10 zones. I recommend Durotar or Elwynn Forest if you're looking to farm for either of these materials. You will want to save at least 50 of these for the next recipe. Alchemy 60 - 110 Craft - Materials Required:
This is another easy recipe to make, although Briarthorn is rather expensive if you plan on buying it. If you're going to be buying the Briarthorn expect to be spending about 10 to 15g a stack at the minimum. 45g to 50g a stack at the maximum. An alternative method of getting Briarthorn would be to farm it... Of course.. The best places I've found to farm Briarthorn are Hillsbrad Foothills (Horde and Alliance), Duskwood (Alliance) and Northern Barrens (Horde). If you decide to farm for the Briarthorn be sure to get enough for the Lesser Healing Potions as well as enough for the Healing Potions which you need to make next. Alchemy 110 - 140 Craft - Materials Required:
Once again another extremely easy recipe to make despite the costly materials. The Briarthorn will be costing you an arm and a leg to buy (if you decide to buy them) but the Bruiseweed is rather cheap and both of them are extremely easy to farm. Another thing that is nice is if you decide to farm for the materials both of them can be farmed from the same zone. This makes things on you much easier if you decide to go that route.

Choosing A Second Profession As an Alchemist your second profession choice should be Herbalism. This will make collecting materials for the potions you make free. If you have the extra gold and would like more utility with your tradeskill grab Enchanting or Jewelcrafting. Extra Benefits to Alchemy As an Alchemist you will be able to create potions that you can consume in the arena. These potions don’t heal you for a lot, or restore a lot of mana but are great for when you’re in a bind. Alchemists are also able to create trinkets for themselves with mediocre stats and they increase the effect of potions by 40%. Profiting Off Alchemy Profiting off Alchemy is very easy. People who raid are sometimes required to bring healing potions, mana potions and flasks. This makes it very easy for you to have a constant market as long as you’re making potions. Also you can profit off people who need transmutes done, which is another common thing. Alchemists are also able to choose an Alchemy path, Potion Mastery, Elixir Mastery and Transmute Mastery. These paths allow for you to create more then one potion or elixir when doing a combine. They won’t use any extra materials, just give you more bang for your buck. The same applies for transmuting items, you may get an extra item when transmuting. Note: When making items for other players, or transmuting alchemists usually charge more if they proc an item, or just plain don’t give it to the player. This will allow you to generate more money. |
