WoWfessions — Profession Levelling Advisor

Stop wasting gold on inefficient levelling. WoWfessions calculates the cheapest way to earn a skill point for any crafting profession, using live Auction House prices. Open your profession window, open WoWfessions, and instantly see what to craft sorted by real cost.

What it does

Every recipe that can give you a skill point is listed and ranked by effective cost per skill point — that's the net cost of materials divided by the chance of getting a skill point. An orange recipe at 100g costs less per skill point than a yellow recipe at 40g, because yellow only gives ~50% chance. WoWfessions does that math for you automatically.

A negative value means you actually make gold while levelling. Crafting and selling on the AH can pay for your skill points.

Features

Works with all crafting professions — Alchemy, Blacksmithing, Enchanting, Engineering, Jewelcrafting, Leatherworking, Tailoring, Cooking, First Aid and more
Always accurate — reads skill colors and materials live from your open profession window, no outdated static database
Vendor prices included — shows the vendor sell value alongside the AH price, automatically uses whichever is higher in the cost calculation
Auctionator and TSM support — prices are read automatically if you have either addon installed
Built-in AH scanner — use /wf scan at the Auction House if you don't have a price addon
Sortable columns — click any column header to sort by chance, mat cost, sell value, net profit, or effective cost. Click again to reverse
Color filters — toggle Orange (100%), Yellow (50%), Green (25%), and Grey (0%) recipes on/off independently
Grey recipes — optionally show recipes that no longer give skill points, useful to find profitable crafts to sell
Profession dropdown — switch between professions without needing to open their windows
Minimap button — drag to reposition, left-click to open, right-click to scan AH. Compatible with MinimapButtonBag, ButtonBin, Bazooka and any LibDataBroker display addon
Auto-refresh — automatically updates when you open a profession window
Window position memory — remembers where you placed it between sessions
Auctionator shopping list — right-click any recipe to send its materials directly to an Auctionator shopping list, or print the list to chat for your party

How to use

Install WoWfessions
Open any profession window (press K and click your profession)
Click the minimap button or type /wf
The list shows every recipe that can give you a skill point, sorted cheapest first
Craft the top recipe, gain a skill point, click Refresh, repeat

That's it.

Columns explained

Column	What it means
`[O] / [Y] / [G] / [X]`	Skill color: Orange (100%), Yellow (~50%), Green (~25%), Grey (0%)
Chance	Skill point chance at your current skill level
Mat. cost	Total AH cost of required materials
Vendor	Vendor sell price of the crafted item
Sell value	AH sell price of the crafted item
Net/craft	What you spend (or earn) per single craft

A ~ prefix means partial price — some materials have no AH data yet. Run /wf scan to fill in the gaps.

Feedback & bugs

Found a bug or have a suggestion? Leave a comment on the CurseForge page or reach out to Wumatic1.

If a profession shows wrong prices or materials, try /wf debug <item name> and /wf scanvars — these commands show exactly what price data is available and where it comes from.
