• Not tradeable. It binds when picked up, so it is earned in play and never listed on the auction house.
• Vendors sell it for 84s 85c and buy it back for 16s 97c. That is the ceiling for an auction price while vendors stock it.
• Quest reward from Arachnophobia.
• Sources are what 48 players running the addon saw in game, summed across everyone who contributes; a rate needs at least twenty loot windows.
• Disenchants into Strange Dust, Lesser Astral Essence, Small Glimmering Shard, worth about 7s 95c on Normal Alliance US today. Odds below.
