Skill shows when the recipe turns yellow and then grey, the range in which it can still raise your skill. Recipes, reagents and skill ranges come from the WoW Forever game files. Auction prices are per item from Blizzard’s auction house data, read every hour (buyouts only; bids are left out); vendor prices come from data collected from the live game. Each ruleset has its own auction house per faction; Blizzard’s data does not name them, so they are matched by size and still being confirmed in game.
