Hey guys, I just leveled Alchemy on my Goblin shaman to 525, and I did not get the Working around the clock achievement for raising 2 professions to 525. I have not leveled any other profs before this and Herbalism. Could it be connected to the fact that the Goblin Racial gives a +15 to alchemy? I also leveled the last five by making a Lifebound Alchemist Stone. Please reply.
There is a similar issue with profession related bonuses, such as Skinning with Worgen where in order to gain it you need raise the skill in the profession to a number equal to the required amount plus the racial bonus.
Seems that only the base skill is counted, without any bonus permanant or not.
