Recipes
Every recipe up to skill 300, grouped by the skill you learn it at. Skill-ups shows where it is orange (learned; a point every craft), yellow, green and grey (no more points). The materials’ cost is our launch-day estimate. What it does comes from the client: our item sweep’s tooltip lines and the spell text of each item’s Use or Equip effect.

Where this comes from
- Source tier A: A Recipes, materials, what they make, rarity, the yellow/grey skill-up points, starter recipes, tools, cooldowns, reputation requirements and each item’s Use or Equip text: the game client’s own tables (build 1.60.1.70532); tooltip lines: our client item sweep of 27 September; camp objects: KB 400.40.1.
- Source tier B: B Learn skill, orange/green points, where a recipe comes from, vendors, training costs, trainers and gathering nodes: Wowhead’s Forever dataset, read 24 October (its recipe lists and materials match the client’s, apart from the camp objects of Skinning and Cooking’s Basic Campfire). Reputation requirements and the side of a vendor’s zone are the client’s (A).
- Source tier D: D The levelling route and every price: ours (launch-day estimate, then the beta Market), with Classic’s skill-up chance rule, which Forever has not been shown to change. The beta closed on 23 October; launch is 4 November.
