Calculation Method

How it works

Simply list all the materials required to craft one item, along with their current market cost per unit. Then, enter the price you plan to sell the finished item for and how many you intend to make. Our calculator will instantly show you your total profit, profit per item, and profit margin.

Inputs explained

  • Crafting Materials Table: Add every material needed for one craft. Be accurate with the quantity and check current prices from guild traders or add-ons like Master Merchant.
  • Selling Price: The price you expect to sell one finished item for on a guild trader.
  • Quantity to Craft: The number of items you plan to craft and sell in a batch.

    • Example

    Let's say you want to craft 10 'Essence of Health' potions. You enter the required Alchemy reagents (e.g., 10 Columbine, 10 Mountain Flower) and their cost (e.g., 150g each). The total material cost is 3000g. If you plan to sell each potion for 500g, your profit per item is 200g, for a total profit of 2000g.

    Tips & notes

    • The ESO economy is volatile. Always double-check material and finished item prices before committing to a large crafting order.
    • Use add-ons like 'Master Merchant' or 'Tamriel Trade Centre' to get accurate, up-to-date pricing data from guild stores.
    • Don't forget to factor in your time and potential Guild Trader fees when setting your selling price.

      • FAQs

      Use add-ons like 'Master Merchant' or 'Tamriel Trade Centre' to get accurate, up-to-date pricing data from guild stores. You can also manually check guild trader listings, but add-ons provide the most comprehensive market data.

      A good profit margin in ESO typically ranges from 20% to 50%, depending on the item and market demand. Higher margins are achievable with rare or specialized items, while common materials may have tighter margins.
