Crystalfused Hide quality ranks
Crystalfused Hide comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 400.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Crystalfused Hide | 15 gold | 16 listings, 128 units |
| Rank 2 | Crystalfused Hide | 12 gold49 silver | 17 listings, 553 units |
| Rank 3 | Crystalfused Hide | 37 gold99 silver | 30 listings, 1,211 units |
The crafting estimate above is the base comparison: rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result. Your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide which rank a craft actually makes, so a higher rank is never priced against rank 1 reagents here. Right now rank 1 lists above rank 2, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.
Crystalfused Hide: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 56% below its 30-day median. Over these 30 days the lowest listing moved more than tenfold, so a single snapshot, including the one the estimate uses, can sit far from typical.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Crystalfused Hide cost 19 gold7 silver. Most of that is Carapace-Backed Hide - 1 at 17 gold97 silver each, 17 gold97 silver, 94.2% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 20 gold7 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 15 gold, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −4 gold7 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 75 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 4 gold82 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -25.3% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 128 units across 16 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 →
