Versatile Emerald quality ranks
Versatile Emerald comes in 3 quality ranks, and each rank is its own item on the Auction House. The recipe’s base crafting difficulty is 420.
| Rank | Item | Lowest listed price | Listings (US) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rank 1 | Versatile Emerald | 770 gold82 silver | 7 listings, 30 units |
| Rank 2 | Versatile Emerald | 1,735 gold33 silver | 5 listings, 16 units |
| Rank 3 | Versatile Emerald | 297 gold99 silver | 6 listings, 11 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 3, so a craft that comes out at a higher rank is worth less at today’s listings, not more.
Versatile Emerald: lowest listed price, last 30 days
The current lowest listing is 22% 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 4 reagents for one craft of Versatile Emerald cost 384 gold70 silver. Most of that is Crushed Gemstones - 20 at 17 gold1 silver each, 340 gold20 silver, 88.4% of the whole basket. Watch that one price and you have watched most of this recipe.
Break-even is 404 gold94 silver - below that listed price the craft loses gold once Blizzard’s 5% cut is taken. The crafted item’s lowest listed price is 770 gold82 silver, which clears it.
At that listed price the gross margin before fees is 386 gold12 silver; the Auction House would keep 38 gold54 silver of a sale, leaving 347 gold57 silver. That is an estimated 90.4% return on the gold you put into reagents, after the cut has taken 10.0% of the gross.
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 →
