Meticulously-Tuned Gear quality ranks
Meticulously-Tuned Gear comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 425.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Meticulously-Tuned Gear | 31 gold23 silver | 4 listings, 14 units |
| Rank 2 | Meticulously-Tuned Gear | 11 gold74 silver | 6 listings, 31 units |
| Rank 3 | Meticulously-Tuned Gear | 200 gold28 silver | 6 listings, 37 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.
Meticulously-Tuned Gear: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 3% 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 Meticulously-Tuned Gear cost 52 gold36 silver. Most of that is Greased-Up Gears - 1 at 43 gold each, 43 gold, 82.1% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 55 gold11 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 31 gold23 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −21 gold13 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 1 gold56 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 22 gold69 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -43.3% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 14 units across 4 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 →
