How to Switch Between Masteries

If you have already learned a mastery (Elixir Master, Potion Master, Transmutation Master) you are able to switch to a new mastery simply by paying 150g. To do this you first have to talk to the NPC from which you learned your current mastery. By paying 150g you can unlearn your current mastery. You then have to go and talk to another NPC that will teach you your new mastery. This is free.

The three NPC's are:

Elixir Master: Lorokeem in Shattrath City
Potion Master: Lauranna Thar'well in Cenarion Refuge
Transmutation Master: Zarevhi in The Stormspire

Unlearning a mastery

If you want to switch masteries (to elixir mastery or transmutation mastery) from potion mastery, you must first talk to quest-giver for your current mastery to unlearn what you know. It costs 150g to unlearn a mastery. You can then learn any of the other masteries without doing any more quests (or spending more money) by going and talking to the representative of that mastery that you want to switch to. Your alchemy level is unaffected by changing your mastery (i.e. you do not lose any skill levels).

It should be noted that potion mastery is the cheapest/easiest mastery quest, requiring only a drop off the second boss in normal Botanica and a few cheap potions. Compare that to the Master of Transmutation quest which requires 4 primal mights (over 500g on my server), or Master of Elixirs which requires you to go into Black Morass in the Caverns of Time. Many report having to run it 2 to 3 times in order to get the quest items needed.

It is common practice to simply do the potion mastery quest, then unlearn it and switch to one of the others. Switching from Potions Mastery to Transmutation Mastery will cost you 150 g, but will save you about 350g for one run through Botanica. Switching from Potions Mastery to Elixirs Mastery will cost you 150g, but save you 2 or 3 runs through an instance  (Black Morass) that not many people do any more.
