WoW Alchemy Guide 1-525 Leveling | Alchemy Leveling Guide
Below is a detailed walk-through on how to level up Alchemy 1-525 easily. This Alchemy 1-525 leveling guide is as complete as I can make it but players may have to purchase extra Alchemy materials due to sometimes not getting a point from a yellowed item. Some players may also find that making different Alchemy potions and items is cheaper on their server depending on the economy. In total, expect to spend 10,000g leveling your Alchemy profession 1-525. You should make a good chunk of that back (estimated 3,500g) by selling the items on the Auction House. Please enjoy this Alchemy Leveling 1-525 Guide and if you have any questions or feedback feel free to post them on our forums. Alchemy 1-525 Leveling Guide: Updated for Patch 4.3 - Cataclysm
- Expected Cost to level Alchemy 1-525: 10,000g (Note: Includes trans spec x 4 Truegold cost)
Estimated time leveling Alchemy 1-525: 2.5 - 3 hours
- Check out Alchemy Gold Guide - Transmute Specialization and Alchemy Gold Guide - Elixir/Flask Specialization for a written and video guide detailing several ways to make gold with Alchemy once you've leveled it.

11 x [Crystal Vial]At 475, before continuing on, you'll want to choose a specialization. The trainer should have three quests available and you'll only be able to pick one specialization. You can be a Potion, Transmutation, or Elixir Master. If you plan to make and sell a lot of potions, go with that one, if you plan to trans a lot of Truegold, go with transmutation, if you plan to make a lot of flasks or elixirs, pick elixir master. As for gold making, I like Transmutation or Elixir Master in Patch 4.3. But, it's really up to you. I'm going to go with Transmutation on this character since I already have an Elixir Master.

Outdated
Also this one can't be updated for 4.3 if you checked your facts. Why do you need to go to Borean Tundra or Howling Fjord to be able to reach 450?

It's not outdated.
It's not outdated. Not everyone will be in a major city while leveling. I list some trainers for the appropriate areas and levels that can be found out in the leveling world. It's just something I thought was helpful.
