Naw I did this, made 2 back to back for GS GP, Gold is 68, alch 60, smith 60, and cooking 92. You do not have to have 71 alchemy i think they say that because its the lvl of the gold recipe and they dont know exactly what lvl alch u need.
There is no way this can require two skills above 60. one would have to be 60 or below because the game won't let you move past Craftsman if you have another skill above 60.
