- Evidence: 11 current listings holding 76 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 creates 2 per craft, so the listed value of one craft is that many times the lowest listed price.
- Quality: Reactive Phial Embellishment 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.

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 | 61 gold | 11 listings, 76 units |
| Rank 2 | Reactive Phial Embellishment | 44 gold | 16 listings, 156 units |
| Rank 3 | Reactive Phial Embellishment | 200 gold | 11 listings, 77 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.
Reactive Phial Embellishment: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 38% below 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 Reactive Phial Embellishment cost 320 gold10 silver. Most of that is Writhebark - 6 at 49 gold each, 294 gold, 91.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 336 gold94 silver per craft, 168 gold47 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 61 gold, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −198 gold10 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 6 gold10 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 204 gold20 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -63.8% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 76 units across 11 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 →
