    Anyone actually noticed an increase in Rank 3 flasks since patch?

    Supposedly the chances for learning them went up, but I haven't felt like spending another 20-30k buying mats to try it. I've already sunk (literally) over 1,000 combinations of int flasks and still at Rank 2, so don't feel like experimenting to find out if "increased chances" means from 0.000001% to 0.000002%...

    took me 8 flasks for str flask, 35 for int one, 140+ for agi one and 50+ for stamina flask post patch. so yeah it's pretty easy to get them.

    I just hate the idea of RNG progression.

    I went from having 1 of 4 to 3 of 4. So it definitely seems like an improvement.

    Most guildies just fund me their herbs and get flasks and potions as required, so hopefully will have Agi one soon.

    I've spent maybe 10 mil in the beging of legion to get all things rank 3 (first week). I don't think I've made my money back but I always loved controlling the consumable market on realms I play so it was worth it. In terms of flasks, I needed 1800 agi flasks, ~1200 int, 800 str and I didn't get the stamina one.

    I made a new Alchemyst on another server and got all 4 in under 300 flasks combined so yes, it's greatly increased.

    I'm now up over 80 combines on Int flasks since the patch, still no rank 3. Starting to go with the thought that if there was an increase from "Abysmal percentage," then it was only to "You may want to slit your wrists before you finally get it. Or you may not." I think we'll still see anecdotal evidence of some people getting them quickly, but I personally believe they couldn't have made much of a change. At this point in the expansion it should be somewhere in the 5-10% chance IMO.

    nope.

    Alchemy

    Significantly increased the drop/proc chance to receive rank 3 recipes.
