- Evidence: 31 current listings holding 495 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Outlier: the crafted item’s lowest listing is 79% below its 30-day median of 85 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far below its usual level.
- Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 5 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.

Where the reagents come from
100 Year Soy Sauce. Rewarded by the quest A Present for Teacher. Also a required reagent in 3 other recipes (3 Cooking); Great Pandaren Banquet takes the most, 1 per craft.
Green Cabbage. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it.
Witchberries. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 1 other recipe (1 Cooking); the most per craft: Spicy Salmon (Cooking, 25 per craft).
Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Banquet of the Brew cost 521 gold33 silver. Most of that is Witchberries - 50 at 4 gold30 silver each, 215 gold, 41.2% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 548 gold76 silver per craft, 109 gold75 silver per item at 5 items a craft - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 18 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −520 gold43 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 4 silver50 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 520 gold47 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -99.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 495 units across 31 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
Costs use each reagent’s lowest listed price; the estimate is the crafted item’s lowest listed price, times the items one craft makes, minus those reagents and Blizzard’s 5% sale cut. Listings are asking prices, not sales. Recalculated every snapshot and left blank rather than guessed when a price is missing. How we estimate crafting profit →
