Profession planning

WoW Profession Skill Calculator

Estimate how many attempts and materials you need without assuming that Retail, Remix and Classic use the same rates.

Your profession plan

Enter the values shown by your current recipe or gathering route. No hidden game-rate assumptions are made.

Estimate = required skill-ups ÷ your skill-up chance, rounded up. Actual results can vary because recipes, gathering difficulty, bonuses and random skill-ups differ by game version.

Plan profession leveling with your real recipe values

Recipe difficulty colors, bonuses and skill-up chances change between professions and versions of World of Warcraft. This calculator therefore uses the values you enter instead of presenting an invented universal leveling route.

What the estimate includes

  • Required skill points and successful crafts or gathers.
  • Expected attempts after applying your estimated skill-up chance.
  • Total material units and an optional gold estimate.

How does the WoW profession skill calculator work?

It divides the skill points you need by the skill gained per successful craft or gather, then adjusts the estimate using the skill-up chance you enter.

Does the calculator use live Auction House prices?

Not yet. Enter your observed price per material unit so the estimate reflects your realm and game version.

Can I use it for Retail, Remix and Classic?

Yes, because recipe rates are entered explicitly. Select the version for your plan and use values from the matching in-game recipe or gathering route.
