As I understood it, they made it so the was always a +1 proc with the chance to get additional; not exceeding the 5 max (1 base + 4 proc).
Ah. Here it is:
- Alchemists specialized in Mixology and Transmutation will now always get at least 1 extra resource produced by their specialized recipes. The maximum received from a single recipe is still 4.

So, unless Flasks were already making 2…which I don’t think they were - I never bothered with Flask-making because of the table locations. You should only be getting 2 Flasks, guaranteed, with the chance to get up to 5 total (1 base + 4 proc).
((Even that might be wrong, it might be 1 base + 3 proc. But in TBC I’ve transmuted and gotten “x5” so I assume it’s 1 base + 4 proc.))
Aaaaand, from what I remember reading about SoD’s alchemy masteries, they’d work like they did in TBC. With the except that Potion Mastery would include Potion, Elixirs, and likely Flasks.
