Where it comes from

  • Vendors sell it for 68s 73c and buy it back for 13s 74c. That is the ceiling for an auction price while vendors stock it.
  • Crafted by Leatherworking at skill 145; the recipe comes from a trainer. Reagents below.
  • Consumed by 1 recipe, which is where its demand comes from.
  • It binds when equipped: tradeable until someone wears it, so each one sells once.
  • Disenchants into Vision Dust, Greater Mystic Essence, Large Glowing Shard, worth about 1g 26s 28c on Normal Alliance US today. Odds below.

Crafted by

Disenchants into

Expected value 1g 26s 28c per disenchant at Normal Alliance US medians. That is above the item's own median of 55s, so an enchanter can buy it to shard.
