Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Darkbrew Lager cost 85 silver. Most of that is Jug of Badlands Bourbon - 1 at 75 silver each, 75 silver, 88.2% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 89 silver47 copper per craft, 22 silver37 copper per item at 4 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 40 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 75 silver; the Auction House would keep 8 silver of a sale, leaving 67 silver. That is an estimated 78.8% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 10.7% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 83 units across 9 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 →
