World of Warcraft Alchemy Overview
Alchemy is one of the most rewarding and profitable professions. Combined with herbalism, it can help you make gold, save gold, and the items produced from it are excellent boons to any class. Leveling Alchemy is fairly straightforward. This guide is designed to help you get from 1 to 375 Alchemy as quickly, inexpensively, and efficiently as possible.
At skill level 350 (and real level 68) an alchemist my choose to master a certain aspect of alchemy. The choices for Mastery are: Elixir, Potion, and Transmutation.

This is just a nice quick overview to increase your alchemy skill. For an in-depth guide that also includes gold making as well, take a look at this WoW profession guide.
Elixir Masters gain the added privilege of being able to create multiple Elixirs and Flasks using only the materials required for one. There is no guarantee that creating an Elixir of Flask will “proc” multiples, but in the event that it does happen, it can create anywhere from 2-5 using no more materials than required for one.
Potion Masters gain the added privilege of being able to create multiple Potions using only the materials required for one. There is no guarantee that creating an Potion will “proc” multiples, but in the event that it does happen, it can create anywhere from 2-5 using no more materials than required for one.
Transmutation Masters gain the added privilege of being able to create multiple Transmutes using only the materials required for one. There is no guarantee that Transmuting something will “proc” multiples, but in the event that it does happen, it can create anywhere from 2-5 using no more materials than required for one.
Recipe Discovery is another privilege enjoyed by alchemists. Any time you use your alchemy skill for transmutes, potions, elixirs or flasks, you have a chance at randomly discovering a recipe off of a specific recipe discovery list. The official word from WoW developers is that recipe discoveries are a “perk” to the class and that there is always a chance that an alchemist will never have a discovery. There is no guarantee. They also state that it is highly unlikely an alchemist will discover more than four recipes in a lifetime. Just a little something to remember: you can't count on them!
Without further ado, on to the leveling.
