Specializations: Worst-kept secret?

Anyone who's been around since The Burning Crusade knows buy wow gold about alchemy specializations. They're a terrific bonus to the profession that allow you to, on occasion, produce extra potions, elixirs, or transmute products as a bonus. With a proc rate of somewhere around 15-20%, they can single handedly mean the difference between profitability and taking a loss.

Great though these specializations are, though, not a whole heck of a lot of World of Warcraft's current player base know they're even available. The necessary wow items quests are located in different locations in Outland. Some newer players miss them entirely. Come on, show of hands -- who's been to Stormspire in the last two years for reasons not associated with alchemy? Anyone?

And even once you find them, the three alchemy specialization quests are a pain to complete. One sends you into the Black Morass instance, one of my least favorite in the game. Another forces you into the Botanica. If you're at level 75, 80, or 85, you can't queue for these through the Dungeon Finder -- you have to make the trek all by your lonesome and solo swtor gold  the instance. Granted, soloing these instances is pretty simple these days. But for a stupid alchemy specialization, it's a lot of work.

Moving the specialization quests to Stormwind and Orgrimmar is a terrific step in getting newer players caught up to speed. Of course, it also levels the playing field information-wise and will likely make it harder for alchemy moguls to make a living. (Sorry, guys.)
