Light Parchment. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 308 other recipes (297 Inscription, 8 Enchanting and 3 Engineering); Codex of the Clear Mind takes the most, 200 per craft.

Maroon Ink. Made with Maroon Ink (Inscription, Kul Tiran Inscription) from 1 Distilled Water and 1 Maroon Pigment. At lowest listed prices that makes one Maroon Ink for 10 gold20 silver, against 19 gold60 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 11 other recipes (10 Inscription and 1 Tailoring); the most per craft: Uncanny Combatant's Etched Vessel (Inscription, 60 per craft), Notorious Combatant's Etched Vessel (Inscription, 50 per craft), Highborne Compendium of Mystical Bulwark (Inscription, 45 per craft), Highborne Compendium of Storms (Inscription, 45 per craft) and Highborne Compendium of Sundering (Inscription, 45 per craft).

Ultramarine Ink. Made with Ultramarine Ink (Inscription, Kul Tiran Inscription) from 1 Distilled Water and 1 Ultramarine Pigment. At lowest listed prices that makes one Ultramarine Ink for 29 silver, against 49 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 45 other recipes (44 Inscription and 1 Jewelcrafting); the most per craft: Sinister Combatant's Etched Vessel (Inscription, 50 per craft), Glyph of Dire Bees (Inscription, 30 per craft), Glyph of Steaming Fury (Inscription, 30 per craft), Glyph of Storm's Wake (Inscription, 30 per craft) and Glyph of the Aerial Chameleon (Inscription, 30 per craft).

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Contract: Unshackled cost 198 gold47 silver. Most of that is Maroon Ink - 10 at 19 gold60 silver each, 196 gold, 98.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 208 gold91 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 857 gold63 silver, which clears it.

At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 659 gold16 silver; the Auction House would keep 42 gold88 silver of a sale, leaving 616 gold27 silver. That is an estimated 310.5% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 6.5% of the gross.

Listing depth right now: 14 units across 4 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 →
