Reinforced Armor Kit quality ranks
Reinforced Armor Kit comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 150.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Reinforced Armor Kit | 8 gold | 10 listings, 30 units |

| Rank 3 | Reinforced Armor Kit | 3 gold42 silver | 9 listings, 100 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 3, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.
Reinforced Armor Kit: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 16% 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 Reinforced Armor Kit cost 28 gold70 silver. Most of that is Dense Hide - 1 at 13 gold each, 13 gold, 45.3% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 30 gold21 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 8 gold, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −20 gold70 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 40 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 21 gold10 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -73.5% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 30 units across 10 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 →
