Chemical Blasting Cap. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 21 other recipes (21 Engineering); the most per craft: Gnomish Tesla Mega-Coil (Engineering, 12 per craft), Super-Charged Engine (Engineering, 12 per craft), Frost-Laced Ammunition (Engineering, 10 per craft), Incendiary Ammunition (Engineering, 10 per craft) and Sanguinated Thermo-Degradation (Engineering, 10 per craft).

Insulated Wiring. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it.

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Frost-Laced Ammunition cost 141 gold93 silver. Most of that is Monelite Ore - 15 at 9 gold25 silver each, 138 gold75 silver, 97.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 149 gold40 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 9 gold20 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −132 gold73 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 46 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 133 gold19 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -93.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 30 units across 10 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
