If you wondered what was going on with the zooming in and out on stuff for the first half of the video, SO AM I! In pre render its fine, it zooms in and stays on what I am talking about. Post render it loops the zoom. Bizarre issue i will have fixed before the next video. Sorry guys and gals. Hope it didn't ruin the video too much for you.
I like alch on a rogue in Wotlk paried with engi. Alch is very overpowerd in pvp. The extra time on the flasks is nice to save some gold and if you are doing a lot of content solo, the extra 40% from a healing flasks can be better than 100 extra passive AP from a better trinket. You can also macro vanish equipt trinket/drink potion/swap back to dps trinket. The whole thing takes 1 global cooldown trigged by drinking the pot. Endless potion is flat out amazing in battlegrounds, allowing you to spam drink over and over without the large gold cost of Ruinic potions. If I were a paladin tank I would also go alch 100%, they burn mana like no tomorrow in heroics much better to tap endless mana after each combat than sit down and drink.
Don't waste your time doing the xmute or elixir quests regardless of which spec you want to be. The potion quest is easy and cheap, and then once you complete it (or any of them) you can drop that spec and talk to the any of the other npcs and swap for a fee.
i did that for my transmute spec. 4 primal might are more than the 150g so that was way easier and cheaper. same wit hthe mats for the potions - super easy to make, unlike elixier, everything needs terocones lol
Worth noting that you can switch specializations for 150g, so depending on price of Primal Might it might be worth going Potion Master then spending 150g to switch to Transmute Master.
Great video m8. I think you covered most of the important stuff. Another alchemy item that can be worth mentioning is the Endless Mana Potion. It only takes 10 runic mana potions to make, and once you have made it, it never runs out and you will have a tbc, super mana potion equivalent potion that restores 1800-3000 mana every minute. I play as an arcane mage, and although I would probably prefer to use the runic mana potions on raidbosses, the endless one is gonna be really handy to have while levling, and doing dungeons and out in the world, being able to pop a free potion every minute. I do believe that the alchemy trinket can be really good for arcane mages too, as we will still be quite mana hungry, and the only downside to arcane that I hear being mentioned for them in wotlk is not being able to sustain their mana too well post T7, but items such as this really helps out with that.
Another big benefit are endless health and mana potions. You can craft these and they work like a mana potion or health potion but have endless usages, so you'll save a lot of gold, especially as a healer since mana potions are quite expensive. Flask of the North won't be availabel until Trial of the Crusader Patch so in P3
@@d0k0night As an Enhancement Shaman I often buy Super or even Major Mana Potions for extremely cheap on fresh Wrath servers to spam in dungeons, it's extremely mana hungry with glyph of fire nova and spamming those pots is a blessing
I’ve been watching your videos for a while. Solid content and I probably forgot to hit the like button as often as I should’ve. As always thanks for the solid info
@@klonzoll3920 You're pretty late to the party lol, but yes it's one of the best ways to grind gold passively. You log in once per day and do the transmute, sell it, rinse repeat. Think I made 200k~ during LK doing it.
@@klonzoll3920 I probably made another 100k selling meta gems that I was crafting, so yes it works pretty well. You only need a single JC to cut the gems though, could get a friend to do it.
Id love to see a 70 alt gold making video through professions. Can a 70 make the good transmutes, and can a 70 tailor get mastery for some cloth? Are there other 70 gold making profs in wrath?
By 65 you can max wrath professions. So a level 65 can be a cloth master alt in wrath and a level 68 can be alchemy for specialization. Can level mining almost all at 70 (would be hard) to get titansteel transmutes. In my opinion the best you can do is level 68 transmute master/tailor for alts.
Can you make a video on returning players looking to farm up stuff wrath please? I'm low on the gold leveling up alts and pumping profs. Any other tips?
At this point don't focus on tbc raiding. We are a week away from ZA release which just leaves sunwell which I personally have no interest in progressing through. At this point in TBC focus on how best to prepare for wrath. Get alts leveled. Get materials for profession changes you want or get the professions set. You will want epic flying bought and atleast 3000 gold per toon. (cold weather and duel spec) These are the main things I'm focusing on. Really wrath will be baby mode for most of us who have put in the work through classic and tbc with easier professions and 2 tiers of raiding per raid tier.
@@thatpvpguy90 that's fine tbh. Get epic flying on your wrath main and 3k extra for flying and duel spec. Alot can be gotten easily come sunwell with dailies I think it could be 100g a day. Wrath will be the flood gates of people pooring out gold early expansion. Honestly gold is such a small factor in the game once you have all your flying speeds.
Hey Scott, great vid as always. Do you know the minimum player level required to transmute the saronite to titanium as well the epic gems? Using alchemy on the alt but don't want to bother leveling it to much if I don't have to!
No mate, thats why i find the alchemy cooldown being so long for a single bar being ludicrous lol. Its nearly a full stack of saronite ore to transmute to 1 titanium bar, you need 3 bars to make 1 titansteel which DOES have a cooldown. So even if there was a million titanium bars available the supply of titansteel is still throttled by the CD. Just my opinion ofc, not saying its right
@@Scottejaye Thank you :) Just thinking of what would be the best to transmute till epic gems are out. Thinking meta gems atm, but guess we'll have to wait and see what demands on stuff will be :)
do you have any videos or links that show which tbc recipes can still skill you up as soon as wrath releases to prepare mats for easy skill points? i don't have herbalism on my alchemist :D
So I don't get it, do you have to be a transmute master to do the daily transmute of a gem to make the 200 gold? Does the transmute master just give you a chance to what..proc an extra gem? doubtful....which is the most ideal for gold?
@@sig789 holy cow so the 10 gold gem in lich king that you transmute daily into a 200 gold gem can sometimes double? insanity...surely everyone will do this and the value will plummet:)
@@sig789 Sorry for all the questions..sure you aren't guarnateed to get the 'extra' one but you get the base 1 at least. If you had 10 alts...that's almost 2k gold a day crazy...what prevents people from just rolling 10 death knights on their account (since they start at level 68?) and train them all as alchemists?
The bots spam farming all of the Frost Lotus and keeping an IRON GRIP on the price of them on AH is going to be rough for Alch. Think about how Black Lotus was or Mana Thistle before you could buy flasks from the vendor in Shatt. Finding a Frost Lotus will be 1 in a million since they are already rare plus bots. Same as Black Lotus was, only found 1 in then entirety of classic.
Yeah I have a bunch of alts as well with alchemy/tailoring. Though I've been considering switching Tailoring to mining just for titansteel. Unsure which one fairs better longer
Have 3 rogue miners from doing mana tombs runs. I just think with the cloth specialisation making w cloth it will be more profitable. But it all depends on supply and demand so who knows till the day
@@cooky9096 I feel like unlike TBC tailoring, there's gonna be a lot less BiS items from Wotlk Tailoring. And with a culture of min maxing, most of the below bis items will just be thrown to oil prince alts. Though tbh, I haven't confirmed any of that, I just haven't heard of any Frozen Shadoweave/Spellstrike equivalent.
For those who don't want to level 500 alts and max professions on all of them for the pixel money, can't you make decent bank from Alchemist from all the masteries? I recall the 15 second potions being valuable to sell for the progress /speed run guilds (particularly the haste potion) where you could make great money proccing those. And flasks are always in demand because, flasks.
Thanks for the info. I do have a couple questions. If you were to go hard on alchemy alts, they would have to be level 65? And max level alchemy (450?) for most of the recipes?
@@cooky9096 Oof. Ok yeah that makes sense. Forgot about that somehow. And would you happen to know the answer to if alchemy 450 is necessary? Cause that probably won't be cheap.
No the transmute titanium is 395. So say your at 375 from tbc just make afew mama potions or something to assist with leveling on main and you should hit 395 pretty easily. That goes grey at 440. The epic gems require 450 but they arnt available right away
@@cooky9096 titanium might have a cd to start. I personally plan on getting to 430 for meta gems transmutes which will be much more profitable anyways if there is a cool down on titanium.
Do you need to be flask master or how its called to get the infinite flask thing? Or can i be a potion master and still use it? Might miss it in the video @scottejaye

Great information 👍
Its 150 to swap. If your server is anything like mine and you want to main xmute master you may aswel just buy 4 primal might at 55g each
i did that for my transmute spec. 4 primal might are more than the 150g so that was way easier and cheaper. same wit hthe mats for the potions - super easy to make, unlike elixier, everything needs terocones lol
