The last 2 days we’ve been getting a lot of hotfixes from bugfixes to the disabling and reenabling multiple features due to players abusing bugs. There’s a lot that has been fixed but one of the things that is currently still disabled are the Alchemy experimentation recipes. Blizzard has given no reason as to why but they will re-enable it as soon as they fix a bug.
