I no longer have a character with the alchemy profession, but with at least one delve involving underwater actions I have a need for underwater breathing potions. However when I took a lower level alt to the alchemy trainer, she could learn the classic alchemy skill, but on classic recipes were available, the trainer started with Cata reipes. What am I missing here?
The vanilla trainers also train Cata, and the training UI seems to put Cata recipes above unlearned vanilla ones, but you definitely were taught a few vanilla recipes to level that skill tier with.
AFAIK, you can’t learn Cata professions without first learning the vanilla. Vanilla tier is what defines whether you know a profession or not, even if you leave it at skill 1.
Take a look at the profession UI and filter for Classic recipes and you’ll see what you know and what you don’t.
Skill up with what you know and return to the trainer to learn the next. Lather, rinse, repeat until you learn and can create the potions you want.
Thanks, never scrolled down once I saw it started with Cata recipes
Another alternative is: noggenfogger-elixir
Drink it till you get the skeleton transformation and voila, underwater breathing! Or have some warlock pride and re-discover your spell book! Theres that spell that has the name of the thing you are looking for!
I know I have the spell on this warlock, but that doesn’t help for other characters that need water breathing
There is just empty space below the Cata training option at the Org Alchemy trainer. But …
I found a solution thanks to warbands. When I first started playing WoW back in vanilla, I started as Alliance and had a priest up to perhaps 55 or so, maxed in Alchemy. I quit playing for a few months and when I came back I went Horde on a different server. Now with Warbands my Alliance priest can make the potions, put them in the war bank and my current characters can collect them
