Where the reagents come from

Firebloom. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 7 other recipes (3 Alchemy, 2 Enchanting and 2 Tailoring); Philosopher's Stone takes the most, 4 per craft.

Goldthorn. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 11 other recipes (10 Alchemy and 1 Cooking); the most per craft: Arcane Elixir (Alchemy, 1 per craft), Catseye Elixir (Alchemy, 1 per craft), Elixir of Agility (Alchemy, 1 per craft), Elixir of Fortitude (Alchemy, 1 per craft) and Elixir of Greater Agility (Alchemy, 1 per craft).

Crystal Vial. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 321 other recipes (310 Alchemy, 10 Enchanting and 1 Inscription); the most per craft: Potion of Prolonged Power (Alchemy, 10 per craft), Apothecary's Worktable (Alchemy, 6 per craft), Major Arcane Protection Potion (Alchemy, 5 per craft), Major Fire Protection Potion (Alchemy, 5 per craft) and Major Frost Protection Potion (Alchemy, 5 per craft).

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Oil of Immolation cost 24 gold71 silver. Most of that is Goldthorn - 1 at 20 gold82 silver each, 20 gold82 silver, 84.3% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 26 gold1 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 18 gold68 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 6 gold3 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 93 silver40 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 6 gold96 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -28.2% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 202 units across 12 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
