  • Evidence: 32 current listings holding 215 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
  • Items per craft: the game’s spell data gives a number that varies from craft to craft, so the estimate counts one item.
  • Quality: Gyrating Gear comes in 3 quality ranks. This is the base comparison, rank 1 reagents against the rank 1 result; your skill and the reagents’ ranks decide the rank you actually get, which this estimate does not model. Each rank’s lowest listing is in the rank table below.
  • Not included: the recipe also accepts 2 finishing reagent slots, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

Gyrating Gear quality ranks

Gyrating Gear comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 410.

RankItemLowest listed priceListings (US)
Rank 1Gyrating Gear23 gold99 silver32 listings, 215 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.

Gyrating Gear: lowest listed price, last 30 days

The current lowest listing is 5% 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 3 reagents for one craft of Gyrating Gear cost 39 gold95 silver. Most of that is Bismuth - 3 at 9 gold87 silver each, 29 gold61 silver, 74.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 42 gold5 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 23 gold99 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −15 gold96 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 1 gold19 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 17 gold15 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -43.0% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 215 units across 32 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 →
