Alchemy in WoW Forever

What Alchemy does in WoW Forever

Blizzard named the Alchemy Lab among the camp objects in its Deep Dive recap; Wowhead’s beta guide adds the other two and the Mana Well’s tooltip, which makes its mana regeneration exclusive with Blessing of Wisdom.

The beta client also holds 65 Alchemy recipes that Classic Era doesn’t have, nearly all elixirs and potions spread over the whole skill range. Several come as families in ranks, such as Mender’s, Spellblasting and Frenzy potions, and there are new flasks at the top end.

• Plan a camp with Alchemy: our WoW Forever Camping Planner adds the rest of your party, the campfire and the Legacy perks.

Does the Alchemy camp buff stack with class buffs?

The class buff that the beta client says Alchemy’s camp buff doesn’t stack with.

Where the new Alchemy recipes fit, skill 1 to 300

The new recipes on the skill bands of the four training ranks, each placed at the skill where the client turns it yellow. Below that skill a recipe is orange or yellow and gives skill-ups; at grey it stops. Use it to see which band has something new to level with; the route between them is still the Classic one.

Not in this chart: the Classic recipes and where each recipe is learned. A full 1–300 route with Classic and new recipes, the crafts and a shopping list is the leveling route section, on the pages of the professions that have one.

Alchemy recipes in the beta client

Every Alchemy recipe in beta client 1.60.1.70755: 177 recipes, 65 of them new in Forever. Filter by category, search a recipe or a reagent, and read the skill colors left to right: learnable, yellow, green, grey.

Some new recipes only turn yellow at skill 320, above Classic’s cap of 300. Blizzard hasn’t announced Forever’s skill cap.

  Recipe item

Client data, not Blizzard’s list: a recipe in the files can change or never ship, and where a recipe item drops or is sold isn’t in the client. Blizzard counts 600+ new recipes across all professions; this count leaves out camp objects, so the two don’t have to match. 15 Season of Discovery recipes are still in the beta client but not confirmed for Forever; switch them on to see them.

Alchemy in the Legacy system

Forever’s account-wide Legacy system gives a Legacy Point the first time you take a crafting profession to 150, 225 and 300 skill, so Alchemy alone is worth three. These perks touch it (first rank, as seen in the demo):

• Working Overtime (Professions tree): 4% higher chance of a skill-up from primary, secondary and class tradeskills.
• Dedicated Study (Professions tree): Raises your lowest primary or secondary tradeskill by 1. Once both primary tradeskills and all three secondary ones reach 300, it gives 2 to 4 of a random Elemental Essence instead. 25 sec cast, 23 hr cooldown.
• Reagent Economy (Resourcefulness tree): Class abilities no longer need reagents bought from vendors, and Tier 1 camping features cost no reagents to craft.
• Field Guide (Adventure tree): The cooldown for adding camping features is 8% shorter.
• Permanence (Resourcefulness tree): Your long-duration party and raid buffs, and the benefits of resting at a camp, last 50% longer.

Every perk, its tree and where it was seen: WoW Forever Legacy system.
