Celestial Ink. Made with Celestial Ink (Inscription, Classic Inscription) from 2 Violet Pigment. At lowest listed prices that makes one Celestial Ink for 27 gold46 silver, against 30 gold30 silver listed. Also a required reagent in 10 other recipes (10 Inscription); the most per craft: Glyph of Fire From the Heavens (Inscription, 3 per craft), Glyph of Shadow (Inscription, 3 per craft), Glyph of the Weaponmaster (Inscription, 3 per craft), Research: Celestial Ink (Inscription, 3 per craft) and Certificate of Ownership (Inscription, 2 per craft).

Reading these numbers

At current lowest listed prices the 2 reagents for one craft of Scroll of Versatility IV cost 30 gold32 silver. Most of that is Celestial Ink - 1 at 30 gold30 silver each, 30 gold30 silver, 99.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.

Break-even is 31 gold91 silver per craft, 15 gold95 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 97 silver, which does not clear it.

The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: 28 gold38 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 9 silver70 copper of a sale, so a craft loses 28 gold47 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -93.9% return on the gold you put into reagents.

Listing depth right now: 106 units across 6 auctions region-wide. Depth separates a market price from a single asking figure, but listings are not sales, so read it alongside the estimate.
