WotLK recipes and skill ranks through 450. Trainer acquisition and prices use the original 3.3.5a database; Wrath Classic prices, phased recipes and reputation or token requirements can differ. Recipes with crafting cooldowns or profession specialization requirements are excluded from the repeatable leveling plan. Enter material prices to compare routes. Recipe purchases are separate from material costs.

How it works

Orange recipes guarantee skill-ups in this model. Yellow and green chances use an estimated linear decline; quantities and the optional 15% buffer are not guarantees. Cheapest uses cost per skill point, Fastest uses crafting time including components, and Balanced weights both equally.

Entered prices affect comparisons immediately. While prices are incomplete, unknown ingredients use a quantity-based comparison proxy normalized against entered prices; no auction price is invented or included in displayed subtotals. Routes are a per-skill approximation, not a guaranteed global optimum. Extra skill-ups from component preparation are not credited.

Costs use rounded shopping quantities before owned inventory. Price cards subtract owned quantities. Client crafting time excludes travel, farming and pattern waiting. Sale recovery counts only leftover outputs. Profession rank requirements are shown in training steps; the guide does not ask for your character level.
