Can you get new and decent recipes from this?
Is there anything that is decent from alchemy?
The major flask of potency seems ok but is barely worth the effort.

    the experimentation teaches 2 flasks and the unstable potion recipe. when you get those three, the experimentation is removed from your recipe list.

    Theres 4 new potions, 5 if you include the distilled major healing one. I've been level 20 alchemy for a while and it's just too costly/time consuming to make pots so I don't bother. Which is pretty sad.

    It's so easy to make pots and those lvl 20 (potency and protection) are just uber in every aspect. More powerful and combined to 2 potions instead of 5 -> more space in bag.

    I replaced all my stats potions with lvl 20, they are just much better.

    Hmmm... did they improve the power of the potency potions? I don't remember them being that strong before. My major concern with Flasks of Potency is that you have to spend 2 aqua regias to get one; now, right now, Aqua Regias go for 1,000 AD on the AH. So you're basically burning well over 2000 AD (either directly or in the form of opportunity costs) before accounting for the two hours of time spent on the flask.

    I suppose that that's what the community feels the value of the flasks are, since otherwise the price of Aqua Regias would decline, but it seems a bit much to spend on a 30 minute buff to me. Then again, I don't generally do dungeon runs, so perhaps a Flask of Potency is the difference between success or failure.
