The Transmute Specialization quest is located in the same place as the Alchemy Specialization quest is in WoW SoD: Taranis. You will need to head to Stormwheedle Port, and look for some new NPCs in the town. You can find Mixmaster Blix and Crimeon Leblade right next to each other right around 67,22. While Blix has the quest to get the Alchemy Spec, Crimeon Leblade has the quest to get you Xmute Spec. He will ask you for three Arcanite Bars in exchange for the spec, but you'll need to be at least Alchemy level 250. After the quest is complete, there will be no feedback from the game that you completed this quest, but you will have the mastery.

Most will probably purchase Arcanite Bars from the Auction House, but you can also get the items for yourself if you want to go through the trouble and save yourself some gold. Arcanite Bars is a recipe that requires Alchemy level 275 and a Philosopher's Stone. The recipe can be learned from Alchemist Pestlezugg in Gadgetzan (51,27), and it requires an Arcane Crystal and a Thorium Bar to make one Arcanite Bar, and the cooldown to make one is around 2 days.

Can you get Xmute Spec and Alch Spec at the same time in WoW SoD Phase 3?

If you want both the Xmute and Alchemy Specs at the same time, you can get them; you'll need to add 10 Elixirs of Demonslaying, 10 Invisibility Potions, and five Elixirs of Sages to your shopping list in order to get Alch Spec on top of the Transmute Spec.
