  • Evidence: 7 current listings holding 496 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
  • Outlier: the crafted item’s lowest listing is 68% below its 30-day median of 174 gold90 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far below its usual level.
  • Items per craft: the game’s spell data creates 5 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.

Where the reagents come from

Primal Fire. Made with Transmute: Primal Air to Fire (Alchemy, Outland Alchemy) from 1 Primal Air. At lowest listed prices that makes one Primal Fire for 289 gold, against 642 gold65 silver listed. Made with Transmute: Primal Mana to Fire (Alchemy, Outland Alchemy) from 1 Primal Mana. At lowest listed prices that makes one Primal Fire for 243 gold50 silver, against 642 gold65 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 79 other recipes (24 Blacksmithing, 14 Leatherworking, 14 Tailoring and 9 Engineering); Drakefist Hammer takes the most, 20 per craft.

Mana Thistle. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 19 other recipes (19 Alchemy); the most per craft: Cauldron of Major Arcane Protection (Alchemy, 7 per craft), Cauldron of Major Fire Protection (Alchemy, 7 per craft), Cauldron of Major Frost Protection (Alchemy, 7 per craft), Cauldron of Major Nature Protection (Alchemy, 7 per craft) and Cauldron of Major Shadow Protection (Alchemy, 7 per craft).

Crystal Vial. 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 Major Fire Protection Potion cost 762 gold54 silver. Most of that is Primal Fire - 1 at 642 gold65 silver each, 642 gold65 silver, 84.3% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 802 gold67 silver per craft, 160 gold53 silver per item at 5 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 55 gold21 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −486 gold49 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 13 gold80 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 500 gold29 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -65.6% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 496 units across 7 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
