Devouring Banding quality ranks

Devouring Banding comes in 2 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 500.

Rank	Item	Lowest listed price	Listings (US)
Rank 1	Devouring Banding	60 gold	17 listings, 393 units
Rank 2	Devouring Banding	45 gold99 silver	24 listings, 1,928 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.

The current lowest listing is 74% above 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 Devouring Banding cost 76 gold9 silver. Most of that is Sin'dorei Armor Banding - 1 at 73 gold99 silver each, 73 gold99 silver, 97.2% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 80 gold9 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 60 gold, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −16 gold9 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 3 gold of a sale, so a craft loses 19 gold9 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -25.1% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 393 units across 17 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 →
