Powerleveling your Professions- Alchemists, Alto Needs You!

Powerleveling Professions. Not for the amateur. Not for the feint hearted. Not for the poor..... 0-525 Alchemy cost me just shy of 12K server prices (had I watched the AH for the best prices, or saved mats up, it would have been quite a bit cheaper, but hey, gotta spend gold on something, right?). Now onto my post:


Pushing to get done before the upcoming 4.0.6 Patch, you might remember one of my toons as she has been the "star" of a few of past articles, such as "WTB Port to Dalaran" and "But what about Dalaran" . She is now another Illustrious Grand Master, if for no reason other than to D/E my 2 bank tabs of Carnelian Spikes that I have accumulated over the last few weeks. I have been worrying that the ilvl was too high on these and that Blizzard "might" nerf these soon, so I needed to get her there to ease the "stress" (I do not like to bother others with D/E'ing, not saying it's wrong, but.... I just prefer to do it myself, you know?).

So last night, 2am"ish", after hitting PvP and Random queues', questing, and farming on a constant rotation, I hit 75. Finially. Seemed like forever, as it almost took her seven days /played time to get there (alot of messing around, hitting AH, doing scans, so it should be quite a bit less).



There were a few tough things that I had to do today upon leveling, one of which hurt, bad.....Vendoring the  Lifebound Alchemist Stone for the unreal price of 8g, when just a week ago I could have been D/E'ing it and getting an easy 1K (or more) selling the Maelstrom Crystals....too little, too late on that one. No bozo button for Alto there...


I guess what I am trying to get to with this post is, yeah, powerleveling a profession is expensive. Now, after checking my AH run (with all the pots I made) through 525, I will be getting 3500g back on my Alchemist through this process. Quite a bit of an initial loss.....However, it is well worth it, as I will make the rest back in no time, I am sure of it. Now for my favor from my loyal readers.....

Any of you folks out there have a set "daily routine" for your Alchemist? Transmutes? Dailies? Are there certain flasks/pots that are selling well for you? On certain days? Holler!

If that doesn't seem feasable for you, how about a link to a blog that you feel would help? Or a few comments on what has worked, what doesn't work?

You know, you are my hero by doing this. Yes, you. I am talking to you. The one that is reading this right now. Or typing an answer now. Or writing an email......Thank you. Talk to yall soon!
