Golden Skeleton Key recipe in WoW Forever
Golden Skeleton Key is a Blacksmithing recipe. With the beta auction house prices of October 15, 2026 (1 player, test realm ClassicBetaPvE2, Alliance), its materials cost 26s 56c and 2 × Golden Skeleton Key resells for 12s 35c at the auction house after the 5% cut: a loss of 14s 21c per craft. It turns yellow at 125, green at 135 and grey at 145. It is learned from the profession trainer at 150 in Classic (the beta files have no trainer lists).

When does it give skill points?
- Orange 150 to 124: a point on every craft
- Yellow 125 to 134: a point most of the time
- Green 135 to 144: a point now and then
- Grey from 145: no more points
Classic rule: 100% while orange, then the chance falls evenly to 0 at grey. Green sits halfway between yellow and grey, as in Classic.
Average cost of a point: 26s 56c while orange, 53s 12c at the green threshold.
