About Maroon Ink

Maroon Ink is a crafting material in World of Warcraft. This page tracks its verified Auction House price and the recipes that consume it, so you can judge whether it is worth farming, buying, or selling right now.

Demand comes from Inscription. When a recipe that uses Maroon Ink spikes in value, the material tends to follow, so watch the recipes above alongside the price history.

To read the chart: compare the current lowest listing against the typical range. A price sitting below its recent band is a buy or craft signal; a price above it favors selling or farming. The method matters more than any single number, since commodity prices move between hourly snapshots.
