Reagent cost, the crafted item's lowest listed price and the estimated profit at that price, from current US Auction House listings - recalculated every snapshot.
Crafting estimate at current listings
At current lowest listed prices one craft shows an estimated profit of 167 gold54 silver, but the crafted item’s listing is far from its 30-day median (see below).

- 22 gold44 silver

- Listed value of one craft

- Auction House cut (5%)
- 9 gold99 silver
- Estimated profit at that listed price
- 167 gold54 silver (+747%)
- Evidence: 6 current listings holding 34 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
- Outlier: the crafted item’s lowest listing is 86% below its 30-day median of 711 gold90 silver, so this estimate rests on a listing far below its usual level.
- 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: Somniferous Incense 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.
- Not included: the recipe also accepts 1 finishing reagent slot, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

Somniferous Incense quality ranks
Somniferous Incense comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 250.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Somniferous Incense | 99 gold99 silver | 6 listings, 34 units |
| Rank 2 | Somniferous Incense | 25 gold | 5 listings, 42 units |
| Rank 3 | Somniferous Incense | 67 gold | 7 listings, 639 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 and rank 3, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.
Somniferous Incense: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 86% 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 2 reagents for one craft of Somniferous Incense cost 22 gold44 silver. Most of that is Bubble Poppy - 6 at 2 gold95 silver each, 17 gold70 silver, 78.9% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 23 gold62 silver per craft, 11 gold81 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 99 gold99 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 177 gold54 silver; the Auction House would keep 9 gold99 silver of a sale, leaving 167 gold54 silver. That is an estimated 746.6% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 5.6% of the gross.
Listing depth right now: 34 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.
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 →
