Reactive Phial Embellishment quality ranks
Reactive Phial Embellishment comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 300.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Reactive Phial Embellishment | 179 gold60 silver | 5 listings, 17 units |
| Rank 2 | Reactive Phial Embellishment | 9 gold50 silver | 14 listings, 170 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.

Reading these numbers
At current lowest listed prices the 3 reagents for one craft of Reactive Phial Embellishment cost 258 gold96 silver. Most of that is Writhebark - 6 at 40 gold45 silver each, 242 gold70 silver, 93.7% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 272 gold58 silver per craft, 136 gold29 silver per item at 2 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 179 gold60 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 100 gold24 silver; the Auction House would keep 17 gold96 silver of a sale, leaving 82 gold28 silver. That is an estimated 31.8% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 17.9% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 17 units across 5 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 →
