Transmute: Primal Shadow to Water

Requirements to make a discovery

You must be crafting a potion, elixir, flask or performing a transmutation that was added in TBC.

As a rule of thumb that's anything that is learnt from a master alchemy trainer, dropped from a mob in outland or purchased from a vendor in outland. The only real exceptions are the pre-TBC flasks that have been made available from faction vendors in outland.

I would guess this is a 'discovered' alchemy recipe, only learned through sheer luck.

Jeranis is correct. I can confirm that this is a discovered transmute. Only know one person on my server that has this transmute.
