Crafting profit

Pick a market and a profession. Every recipe is ranked by what it earns at that market's prices right now. Enchantments make no item to sell, so they are costed on the enchants page instead. The crafts that also sell through the week, and the profession leading on each house, are in the gold meta.

On PvP Alliance EU right now, Inlaid Mithril Cylinder (Blacksmithing) makes the most per craft: about 18g 34s after the 5 percent auction house cut. Counting how fast the result sells, Silver Rod (Blacksmithing) makes the most a day, about 211g from roughly 498 sold a day. 49 of 118 fully priced recipes make a profit.

Current market: PvP Alliance EU, the market with the newest prices. Pick yours below and every tool opens there. Address for this market: ahledger.com/crafting?market=forever/pvp/alliance/eu

▸How this is worked out

Reagents are priced at their median, the result at its median times the recipe's average yield, less the 5 percent auction house cut. A reagent with no price is named rather than counted as free. Deposits and the value of your own gathered materials are not in these numbers.

Sold/day is the estimated units of the result sold a day on this auction house over the last week, from consecutive scans; it leans low and is blank where too few hours of scans back it. Profit a day is the margin per unit times that: the most a crafter supplying the whole market could make. A fat margin on something that sells three a day is worth less than a thin one on something that sells three hundred.

What the margin leaves out.

Common questions

What is the most profitable craft in WoW Forever right now?
On PvP Alliance EU right now, Inlaid Mithril Cylinder (Blacksmithing) makes the most per craft: about 18g 34s after the 5 percent auction house cut. Counting how fast the result sells, Silver Rod (Blacksmithing) makes the most a day, about 211g from roughly 498 sold a day. 49 of 118 fully priced recipes make a profit.
How is crafting profit calculated?
Each reagent is priced at its median on the market, and the result at its median times the recipe's average yield, less the 5 percent auction house cut. A reagent with no price is named rather than counted as free. Deposits and the value of materials you gather yourself are not in the numbers.
Why is the biggest margin not always the best craft?
A margin pays only as fast as the result sells. Profit a day is the margin times the estimated units sold a day on that auction house, so a thin margin on something that sells three hundred a day beats a fat one on something that sells three. Rank by Profit a day to see that order.
