Where the reagents come from

Awakened Fire. Made with Transmute: Awakened Fire (Alchemy, Dragon Isles Alchemy) from 1 Awakened Earth and 1 Awakened Air, 2 per craft. At lowest listed prices that makes one Awakened Fire for 116 gold99 silver, against 130 gold90 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 43 other recipes (10 Jewelcrafting, 7 Enchanting, 7 Inscription and 6 Blacksmithing); Shalasar's Sophic Vellum takes the most, 150 per craft.

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 1 reagent for one craft of Create Rousing Fire cost 130 gold90 silver.

Break-even is 137 gold78 silver per craft, 13 gold77 silver per item at 10 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 12 gold45 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −6 gold40 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 6 gold22 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 12 gold62 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -9.6% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 51,661 units across 211 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
