So basically for an ogre or troll shaman, the choice is go for Kael faction, or alchemy? Because you can't do both, unless you accept perpetually having to rely on ground transfers to get the mats...
And pre-Velious, only barbarian and iksar shaman can realistically do alchemy at all

You can see for yourself; here's an archive of EQ Traders from June of 2000:

Verant feared and hated tradeskills, especially initially, so they made them difficult (and largely pointless). For instance, want to blacksmith as a Barbarian in classic? Get ready to run to Qeynos every time, because the molds are in Halas, but the ore is there. I think they saw the Grobb/Oggok split as being similar.
If it's any consolation, according to this bug thread,
https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...d.php?t=425636, Barbarians shouldn't get all the alchemy components either, until September 2000 (ie. almost the end of the server).
