/Whine on (pass on whine if you want)
Every old recipe is dead, and I don't have even half the replacement recipes yet. I think I have like 6 useful recipes in my bag, though I have some I haven't done yet. So I have to do every combo once, just to get the new ones in. The recipe ingredients are scattered, so you no longer get most of the ingredients from a single vendor, so I get to run to Abysmal Sea (I really hate that place, I always get lost),then pop in to Shadowhaven for other stuff. Lots of it in PoK but not all. And 16 billion potion vials so you never have the one you need. I will need that extra bank space just to cut down on going to Abysmal Sea.
Some potions come in levels, which annoys me as both user and maker. Why would Sow or levitation need to be in levels?
/Whine off
On the other hand, new tradeskill tropies are very nice, and if I was a beginning alchemist I would be pleased except for the running around.
