I'm max level Alchemist...
this does not bode well for us...
just wondering, can you CHOSE what you get in archaeology? or is it random as well? I heard that if you get something, you can't get it again until youve discovered the rest of that race's artifacts, eg. if you discover the jar, but the recipe doesn't drop, can you get another jar, or do you need to find the rest of the tolvir stuff first?
No, you can't choose what you get. Once you start an artifact you have to finish it to clear it and then you randomly get assigned another one. I have gotten multiple copies of night elf artifacts in a row without having discovered other items. I'm going to assume at this point it's RNG on the artifact you discover.
I hit max Arch a little while ago, now I have to get lucky on the Uldum digs.

Does anyone else think it's absurd that this recipe is not Bind to Account?
I did not enjoy leveling Archaeology too much, but I'm sure some people did. But asking me to level it all the way to 525 on my Alchemist again just makes me cringe.
Changing it from Bind on Pickup to Bind on Account should make no difference whatso ever, right? Either way, I'm not going to bother with archaeology on my druid until I'm done with my warrior(completionist character). Which could take a very long time in itself.
EXACTLY the same position I'm in. My mage is currently 395/450 in Archaeology as the portals made the initial dig site hunting bearable. Now my pally's got to catch up as he is my alchemist
Then again, everything we do in this game is a grind that keeps us playing ..........
Not really. It's obvious they want this to be somewhat rare, and to be fair, the recipe falls under the same exact rules that every other recent random recipe falls under: you need to be that profession to see it to be able to loot it.
/I actually enjoyed leveling archaeology.
Under that logic Zin'rokh and Staff of Ammunae should both be BoP. Can't have people using their epic weapons on more than one character now can we?
Thanks for the screen shot to confirm this. GM 1, me 0 lol.

Oh well, obviously you've thought this through completely. If they remove invonvenience from a secondary profession the sky will fall.
Blizzard can control their game. If they've made an exception for epic weapons the same can happen for one scroll.
It makes sense to me that it is BoP because it makes it somewhat RPish.
You as an alchemist are out in the wild looking for artifacts and you
discover the secret scroll that teaches you how to make the dragon
potion..or something like that. I don't RP so I am just guessing what
RP really is. If it was boa then people would be twinking their alts
with it. They would say "Yea I found this potion on my hunter lol",
which makes it more trivial.
my alchemy/ archeologist toon has a new reason to visit old zones n level that up
Me with alchemy 525 and archaeology 525 just opened a canopic jar and it only had the Mummified organs in them.
It isnt a guarenteed drop if you have both profs maxxed
I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one. An inch. It is small and it is fragile and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us.
