You should reach around 477 with this method.
Once you reach an Alchemy skill of 475, you may begin a quest to learn one of three specializations: Potions, Elixirs or Transmutations. Being specialized gives you a
chance to create an extra 1 to 4 (for a total 5) items while crafting in the field you have selected. For example, a
Master of Potions may be able to craft more than one [Super Mana Potion] for the same material cost as one.- 475-480

Learn Zen Alchemy.
From this point there are some significant changes to the leveling process. The trainers will only teach you 2
Pandarian recipes at 500 skill. These two recipes are used to unlock additional recipes. As a result there is no set
progression in crafting for skill points.- 500-530
40 x [Alchemist’s Rejuvenation] or [Master Healing Potion] – 40 Green Tea Leaf
Make your trinket [Zen Alchemist Stone] if you need it.
At this point you probably discovered 5-8 new recipes. You should always prioritize potions that use Green Tea Leaf
because it can be found in every zone and most likely it is always the cheapest herb.How to determine which potions to make:
You should save around 25 each of these herbs: Green Tea Leaf, Snow Lily and Fool’s Cap. You will need them to reach
600 from 575 when you discover the new Mana Potion recipe. It will be the only orange recipe that you can use.- 530-545
If you have loads of Green Tea Leaf, you could just make the previous potions until you
keep discovering new recipes. Once you make a green potion around 8 times and there was no new discovery, you
should stop making it and start making a higher level potion in the list below. I made a priority list of the
recipes you probably discovered, Mantid Elixir is usually the best recipe you can get. This list is based on
how hard is to get a particular herb, but obviously if you have 20 Green Tea Leaf and 150 Rain Poppy, you
should make a potion that use 2 Rain Poppy. Choose only one. 1. 15 x [Mantid Elixir] –
30 Green Tea Leaf
2. 15 x [Potion of the Jade Serpent] – 15 Green Tea Leaf, 15
Silkweed
3. 15 x [Elixir of Weaponry] – 30 Silkweed
4. 15 x [Potion of the Mountains]
– 15 Green Tea Leaf, 15 Rain Poppy
5. 15 x [Mad Hozen Elixir]– 30 Rain Poppy
- 545-575Choose only one. 35 x [Virmen’s Bite] – 35
Snow Lily, 35 Green Tea Leaf
35 x [Elixir of Perfection] 35 Snow Lily, 35
Silkweed
35 x [Elixir
of the Rapids] 35 Snow Lily, 35 Rain Poppy There are 3 other potions that you can discover, they require Fool’s Cap instead of Snow lily, so if you have
loads of Fool’s Cap, you can make those potions instead. Between 570-580, you will discover [Master Mana Potion]. When you discover the recipe,
you should start making it if your skill is at around 575, but the maximum I would recommend to make the
potions above is until you reach 577.
- 575-600
If you didn’t discover this recipe yet because you were unlucky , you will have to make the
previous recipes, or any other transmute recipe. 25 x [Master Mana Potion] – 25 Green Tea Leaf, 25 Snow
Lily, 25 Fool’s Cap
