Where the reagents come from

Bolt of Embersilk Cloth. Made with Bolt of Embersilk Cloth (Tailoring, Cataclysm Tailoring) from 5 Embersilk Cloth. At lowest listed prices that makes one Bolt of Embersilk Cloth for 7 gold, against 10 gold listed. Also a required reagent in 48 other recipes (48 Tailoring); Hyjal Expedition Bag takes the most, 20 per craft.

Penumbra Thread. No recipe, Blizzard quest reward or dungeon journal drop in our game data produces it. Also a required reagent in 81 other recipes (47 Leatherworking, 33 Tailoring and 1 Engineering); the most per craft: Vestige of Origins (Tailoring, 75 per craft), Lightless Silk Pouch (Tailoring, 25 per craft), Vestige of the Eternal (Tailoring, 25 per craft), Crafter's Mark IV (Tailoring, 15 per craft) and Shrouded Cloth Bag (Tailoring, 15 per craft).

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Relic of the Past V cost 185 gold80 silver. Most of that is Penumbra Thread - 12 at 9 gold65 silver each, 115 gold80 silver, 62.3% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 195 gold57 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 34 gold, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 151 gold80 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 1 gold70 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 153 gold50 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -82.6% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 214 units across 24 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
