Thin market: the crafted item’s lowest listing comes from very few current listings and sits far out of line with reagent cost. Treat this estimate as unverified until more listings accrue.

  • Evidence: 2 current listings holding 10 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 15 times its 30-day median of 2,000 gold, so this estimate rests on a listing far above its usual level.
  • Quality: Vantus Rune: Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible 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 2 finishing reagent slots, which are not required and are left out of the cost.

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.
