Herb price FAQ
- Which Midnight herb is cheapest?
- Tranquility Bloom, the abundant 1-30 leveling herb. Its current buyout is in the shelf above.
- Which Midnight herb sells for the most?
- Nocturnal Lotus. Its drop is gated behind Knowledge Points and the Imbued Mulch lever, so supply stays tight.
- Are these herb prices US or EU?
- US. Herbs are commodities in retail WoW: one auction house per region, not one per realm.
- How often do the herb prices update?
- About hourly, from the Blizzard Auction House API. The snapshot badge above shows the last pull; verify in-game before you trade.

The six Midnight herbs
Tranquility Bloom is the abundant low-level herb and grays at skill 30. Mana Lily, Argentleaf, Azeroot and Sanguithorn carry 30-60 and feed the weekly Knowledge-Point quests and the herb sub-specs. Nocturnal Lotus is the rare reagent - a low-drop find you force with Imbued Mulch and herb-specific Bountiful Harvests, which is why it holds the highest price of the set.
Why the prices move
Herb prices track what Alchemy and Inscription are crafting this patch. A new consumable tier pulls its reagents up within days. Because herbs are commodities, every realm in the region shares one market, so the only arbitrage left is timing.
