Sunfire Silk Spellthread quality ranks
Sunfire Silk Spellthread comes in 2 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 505.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Sunfire Silk Spellthread | 3,000 gold | 7 listings, 30 units |
| Rank 2 | Sunfire Silk Spellthread | 1,979 gold | 52 listings, 474 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.
Sunfire Silk Spellthread: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 25% 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 6 reagents for one craft of Sunfire Silk Spellthread cost 3,082 gold67 silver. Most of that is Petrified Root - 4 at 321 gold98 silver each, 1,287 gold92 silver, 41.8% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 3,244 gold91 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 3,000 gold, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −82 gold67 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 150 gold of a sale, so a craft loses 232 gold67 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -7.5% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 30 units across 7 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 →
