Where the reagents come from

Core Alloy. Made with Core Alloy (Blacksmithing, Khaz Algar Blacksmithing) from 10 Bismuth and 8 Echoing Flux. At lowest listed prices that makes one Core Alloy for 67 gold32 silver, against 51 gold10 silver listed. Lowest listed price by quality rank: rank 1 51 gold10 silver, rank 2 57 gold and rank 3 94 gold. Also a required reagent in 58 other recipes (51 Blacksmithing, 4 Inscription, 1 Engineering and 1 Jewelcrafting); Replica Rumbling Wastes Drill Pod takes the most, 8 per craft.

Crystalline Powder. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 33 other recipes (13 Blacksmithing, 8 Enchanting, 6 Alchemy and 2 Inscription); the most per craft: Artisan Leatherworker's Knife (Blacksmithing, 20 per craft), Crystalline Radiance (Enchanting, 20 per craft), Artisan Leatherworker's Toolset (Blacksmithing, 10 per craft), Council's Intellect (Enchanting, 10 per craft) and Oathsworn's Strength (Enchanting, 10 per craft).

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Adjustable Framework cost 51 gold30 silver. Most of that is Core Alloy - 1 at 51 gold10 silver each, 51 gold10 silver, 99.6% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 54 gold - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 4 gold50 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −46 gold80 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 22 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 47 gold2 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -91.7% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 2,747 units across 40 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
