I haven't picked an alchemy specialization for Beam yet. Shaerl was on my case about this, so I suppose it's time. Obviously, there's not one that stands above the others, so I thought I'd ask, what does VS need? What does everyone else have as a specialization? If there's an obvious lack in a certain area, I'll go that route.

I was thinking of starting a thread like this. So yeah, what Beam said. I haven't picked a specialization yet either. I think we have a couple of Elixir Masters already, one Transmute Master, and not sure about Potion Masters. So, all you Alchemists out there, respond with what you've specialized in, or plan to specialize in, so we can see what we have and help others decide what they want to do. I was thinking of going Transmute myself. I've been collecting the primals, but I've still got a ways to go.

Master of Elixirs:
Zorinda
Sapphyre
Hecktigol

Master of Potions:
Frocked

Master of Transmutations:
Shaerl
Zanphart

Master of the Unknown: (aka, haven't decided, or not quite there yet)
Beam
Uvula
Jasmes
Shino (working on Elixir)

Zorinda is an Elixir Master!

Frocked is a master of potions.

I believe Sapph is an elixir mistress.

I too have not done this on Uvula. I am leaning heavily toward Elixir, as she makes quite a lot of them. However, I certainly would reconsider if the guild could use one of the others.

I have 2 lvls to go until i can master any direction. I have been thinking i would go transmute for the income potential. Definitely interested in reading comments....

It picked it for me. I handed in the quest and it was like you are...
I forget what it was

Heh, well, you choose by picking which quest to take. :)

Here's a little more on the specializations:

to late then, LOL. I talked to the bird guy and he only gave me 1 quest, LOL

I forget which one that is. Take a look at this screenshot to remind you :) which one you got:

Also this link is pretty helpful (also covers discovery, which hasn't procced for me yet):

Assuming Heck's "bird guy" is the one in the Alchemy area of Shattrath City, I believe that would be Master of Elixirs. The Master of Potions quest begins with the CE in Zangamarsh, and Master of Transmutation starts at the Stormspire thingy in Netherstorm.

Yes, each Alchemy Mastery begins with different NPC's in different zones.

(Disclaimer: I believe this info to be accurate to the best of my knowledge)

I am five BM drops away from elixir mastery.

Someone get that man some more BM runs!

Edit: That could read as "bowel movement" runs, and that's just gross! But if anyone wants to help his bowels, please feel free to do so. I know Val likes such things.

Yeah...I only ever had one succesful BM run, and the rest (about five) were complete wipes since either a)Someone put me on mobs, b)The person who organized the PUG decided he'd rather do the run with his guild after making me wait a half-hour for him, or c) The other boss-dps decides to try fighting the mobs. PUGs suck.

Shaerl is Transmutation. To my knowledge, he's the only one we've got, although I think Jafn was going to take Faustis that route.

Thanks Shaerl. I updated my first post on the first page (2nd post down) with a list of who has what Masteries.

Hmm, I suppose I'll be leaning towards potions.

I have officially gone the way of Transmutation. Please continue to respond here once you've choosen your Masteries so we can keep a running list of who does what, and I will update the post on the first page. Or whatever.

I need to get my lazy ass in gear. I haven't picked a spec yet. Since there's only 1 in potions I'll go that route. I'll pick the quests up and jump in the next raid for whatever instance I need for that.

I'm now working on Master of Potions.

Skypop is an Elixir Master

Please update wiki with future specializations. Thanks!

i went Master of Elixirs
