Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega quality ranks
Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 565.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega | 50 gold94 silver | 4 listings, 17 units |
| Rank 2 | Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega | 25 gold | 8 listings, 58 units |
| Rank 3 | Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega | 21 gold23 silver | 12 listings, 58 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.
Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 33% above 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 3 reagents for one craft of Vantus Rune: Manaforge Omega cost 134 gold51 silver. Most of that is Apricate Ink - 5 at 20 gold3 silver each, 100 gold15 silver, 74.5% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 141 gold58 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 50 gold94 silver, which does not clear it.
The crafted item currently lists for less than its reagents cost: −83 gold57 silver before fees, and the Auction House would still take 2 gold54 silver of a sale, so a craft loses 86 gold11 silver at these prices. At current listings, buying the crafted item costs less than making it. That is an estimated -64.0% return on the gold you put into reagents.
Listing depth right now: 17 units across 4 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 →
