https://www.wowhead.com/item=75525/alchemists-flask#comments - Could be a good flask alternative. I saw someone getting 40 strength at 89 (i think).
Anyone know how much base-stat the Alchemist Flask gives in this bracket?

I use it on my war and it gives +33 Strength. Fantastic piece imo, just posted in the BiS Profession thread about Alchemy. Between the Flask and the Stone I think it's super underrated. Bonus: supply and make bank off pots.

Black Lotus' are pretty expensive though & u lose the pot after the BG. Unless you want to throw money at 1 shotting levellers the alchemy pot is great & cheap.

Well, this is the thing. If I queue into a random BG I might put a weapon oil on or something because it's cheap and doesn't perish after the BG. If i could use an alchemist pot for free whenever I like then I'd use it all the time compared to an expensive pot that perishes.
I guess it depends what you do with your character. If you arena then it's a complete waste. If you do a lot of BG's it's pretty useful.
What other professions would you prefer over this?

The flask + another good neck would still net you more primary stat right? Outside of arena I'd still see alchemy as a worthwhile profession unless I'm missing something

at 70? that flask is apparently only giving 33 str/agi/int at lvl 79 much less at 70. the alternatives are relentless assault which is 40 ap, or disitlled wisdom which is 59 int, and the next best neck isnt even close to the jc ones.
in pvp, things are a little more forgiving, you could technicly drop eng for alch, but then youre missing out on sonic booster for melee.
what neck are you thinking to replace it with?

Wouldn't running Inscription be better than JC in the event that Necklace of the Deep is an option?

Inscription is marginally better than the Aldor enchants for agility and strength dps, and the spellpower one is a lot better yes, but 2 ap and 2 crit increase or 5 sp and like 1 crit increase vs, good secondary’s on the jc specific necks( don’t know off the top of my head with squish now) maybe works

From my calculations, if the difference is 2/2 then Inscription is better than JC for stat maximisation.

Well the hard khorium choker is 13 ap , 15 stam, 8 crit and 10 haste with 1 gen socket. Necklace of the deep is 12 agility 12 stamina 3 crit with 2 sockets. And inscription shoulder enchant is 2 ap and 2 crit gain. So let’s say we are gemming 5 agility 5 crit. You only lose 4 ap from using hkc vs necklace of the deep. Adding the shoulder enchant means jc vs inscription you gain (with neck of the deep) you gain 6 ap and 2 crit. But you lose 3 stamina and 10 haste. Hmmmmmmmm
[doublepost=1540471771,1540470933][/doublepost]also is the inscription shoulder enchants still even obtainable?
