Profit

Profit shows which of your profession crafts actually make gold. It combines Auctionator's auction house prices with recipe data from WoW Forever to show, for every recipe:

• Material cost, using auction prices, or vendor prices for vendor-bought materials like thread, dye and vials
• What it sells for after the auction house cut, and a warning when a vendor would pay more
• Profit per craft
• Skill color at your current level (grey recipes are included, since they can still be profitable)
• Where to learn it if you don't know it yet: trainer (with the skill needed), pattern or recipe item (with its vendor or auction price), or both

How to use

1. Install Auctionator (required) and run a scan at the auction house.
2. Open each of your profession windows once so Profit knows your skill and recipes.
3. Type /prof, or click the minimap button.

In the window you can filter to recipes you know, recipes you can learn now, or all recipes; pick a profession; search; and sort by cost, sale price, profit or skill. Click a recipe for its full breakdown. If you know it, the recipe also opens in your profession window.

Commands

• /prof: open the window
• /prof top [count] [profession]: most profitable crafts, in chat
• /prof <recipe>: breakdown of one recipe
• /prof minimap: show or hide the minimap button
• /prof export: share what you've recorded (see below)

Help fill in the data

Some information isn't in the game files, like the skill needed to learn trainer recipes and which vendors sell what. Profit records this automatically when you open trainer and merchant windows. When the data is missing, Profit says so instead of guessing. To help everyone, type /prof export, copy the text, and post it as an issue at github.com/ExcEssIv3/profit/issues.

Notes

• Built for the WoW Forever beta. Expect rough edges, and please report issues.
