In WoW TBC, you need Alchemist skill 325 to start discovering new recipes from Outland alchemy crafting. The discovery system works when you craft TBC- era recipes, and it can unlock rare recipes automatically over time.

What matters

  • You do not need a special “discovery level” beyond 325 Alchemy.
  • You need to be crafting Outland recipes in the 300–375 range for discovery to happen.
  • Some recipe types, like Cauldrons , are discovered through related protection potion crafting rather than just any recipe.

Related milestone

  • If you mean Alchemy specializations instead of recipe discovery, those require Alchemy 325 and character level 68.

Quick answer

  • Discover new recipes: start at 325 Alchemy with TBC crafts.
  • Choose a specialization: 325 Alchemy + level 68.
