How this guide is worked out
- Skill colours are the Forever client's (yellow and grey; green halfway between).
- An orange recipe always gives a point; from yellow to grey the chance is (grey - skill) / (grey - yellow): the standard Classic formula, our assumption for Forever.
- Forever has no auction house data, so nothing is priced from it: vendor materials count at the vendor's price, gathered and looted ones at 5 times what a vendor pays for them (or by item level), rarer herbs and ores more.
- Only recipes you can learn somewhere known count; trainers, recipe vendors and quests are Classic data (CMaNGOS classic-db) until players see them in Forever.
