A practical roadmap for evaluating spawner output and market prices. Rules and prices can change; use current in-game information for your final decision.

A sound calculation in three steps

Measure → calculate → verify
01 / 03

Measure spawner output

Count saleable items produced over a short period. Convert the period to hours and divide by spawner count. This gives you your farm’s actual rate instead of a generic estimate.

Deduct fees and costs

Subtract costs from gross revenue. Adjust the calculator’s five percent assumption to actual in-game conditions; it is not a verified server fee. Zero or negative hourly net income has no finite payback period.

03 / 03

Verify the price spread

When buying an AH listing to fill an open order, check the whole lot cost and remaining demand in that same order. The unit price of a 64-item lot does not mean you can buy one item. Open listings are not completed sales.
