WoW Forever profession perks: every Legacy perk for gatherers and crafters

The Professions branch of Legacy holds seven perks for gathering, crafting, fishing, vendor prices and crate turn-ins. Each character can spend at most 16 Legacy points in total across all branches, so a profession perk competes with the Adventure and Resourcefulness perks on the same character. Legacy points: main, alt and early talents explains how earned points and each character's allocation differ.

Two perks need no points in the branch first.

It also needs Bountiful Harvest at rank 5.
What does Dedicated Study need?
Dedicated Study has a single rank. It opens after 10 points in the branch and needs Bartering at rank 2: Increases your skill by 1 in your lowest tradeskill among your Primary and Secondary tradeskills. If you have already reached 300 skill in your two current Primary Tradeskills and all three Secondary Tradeskills, you will gain 2 to 4 of a random Elemental Essence.
Which perk serves which profession?
- Mining, Herbalism and Skinning: Bountiful Harvest, the only perk that increases Scarce materials from those professions.
- Cooking: Master Chef, the only perk that adds crafted results, and only for cooking recipes. The recipe planner uses each recipe's listed yield and reagents without counting this chance.
- Fishing: Luremaster, and only while a lure is active.
- Skill points: Working Overtime raises the chance of a skill point from a primary, secondary, or class-based tradeskill; Dedicated Study can add skill to your lowest primary or secondary tradeskill.
- Buying from vendors: Bartering lowers vendor gold prices, crafting reagents included.
- Crate turn-ins: Performance Bonus can increase Merchant's Favor when you turn in a crate.
Where does Reagent Economy sit?
Reagent Economy is not a profession perk. It belongs to the Resourcefulness branch, opens after 10 points there and needs The Quick and the Dead at rank 2: Your class abilities no longer require reagents purchaseable from vendors. It leaves profession recipes unchanged.
How do I plan perks for my main and alt?
Open the Legacy planner, choose perks for your main's professions, then switch to your alt to plan a different allocation with the same earned points.
