World of Warcraft: Alchemy 1-450 Leveling Guide

With the newest expantion World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, the proffesions got overhauled. One of the great changes is, that Flasks now will last 4 instead of 2 hours if you have Alchemy maxed out, which can save you 1000's of gold in the long term, as you'd only need 1 Flask per 4 hour raid

Example: A Wrath of the Lich King flask costs ~80-90g on most servers. If you're rading 3 days per week, that: 90*3*4 = 1080g in only one month or up to 13.000g in one year! Not taking into account, that you get Flasks or free if you chose to specialize in the Elixir Mastery.

This guilde will show you the fastest and easiest way to get from 1 to 450 skill in Alchemy. You'll need many herbs so prepare before starting, by either buying them from auction of if it's to exepnsive farm them yourself (or with one of your alts).
