Is it worth getting into Alchemy from scratch right now? Not transmutes but flasks/phials

Gameplay Professions
1

I’m trying to pick some professions for my main character… normally I go double gathering (mining/herb) but would like to dip my toes into crafting. I like the increased flask duration and I think picking flowers/making flasks could be fun. But I’d also like to make some gold… and I worry it’s way too saturated and way too hard to catch up to people who’ve been doing this since day 1.

I do plan on doing some kind of shuffle for extra AA first, no matter which two professions I choose. But I’d love any input/advice you have. Thanks in advance!

You can make Gold fairly early using concentration. What you are going to notice is that only one quality of flask/potion makes money.

So you have to discover a potion/flask/vial that makes money and then be able to make it at the quality that will make you Gold.
