Features

Settings Explained



Why is my Minecraft name required?

If you enter your Minecraft name, it will determine your HOTM and Gemstone Collection level, making it more personalized and useful. (Note that API settings has to be changed in game in order to obtain for the calculator to obtain Gemstone Collection level.)

Alternatively, you could uncheck this "Use Profile" box, and manually input your HOTM and Gemstone Collection level.


Tax in bazaar

The bazaar has a tax rate of 1.25% by default. The community center upgrade Bazaar Flipper can bring it down to 1.125% for free-to-play players, and a further decrease to 1% if you spend gems.


Risk Managemnt

Trying to profit from the forge is similar to an investment, there is a possibility of loss. Forges that do not satisfy the above criteria would be highlighted in yellow at related cells as a reminder hoping to reduce the potential loss, but they will not be moved to the bottom.


Risk Level

An advice on how to adjust the three settings below, which may be less intuitive.


Budget

Maximum amount of money you would spend to buy the materials for the forge.


Minimum items in AH

More items in AH currently means the price is more stable. Since individuals would have less impact on overall price.


Buy in bulk

The amount of items you would buy at a time in Auction House at most.

e.g. You need 20 plasma

Current Auctions:

1. 20k for 1 plasma (20k per)

2. 1M for 40 plasma (25k per)

3. 600k for 20 plasma (30k per)

The calculator would ignore 2., even if it is cheaper in terms of unit price.

Table Columns Explained



Price of product (with tax)

It includes tax when you are selling your product, so it would be lower than the numbers shown in game.

Auction House (Buy It Now (BIN) mode): 1% if selling price is smaller than or equal to 1M, 2% otherwise.

Bazaar: The bazaar has a tax rate of 1.25% by default. The community center upgrade Bazaar Flipper can bring it down to 1.125% for free-to-play players, and a further decrease to 1% if you spend gems. Tax rate can be adjusted in the settings.

will bring you to a list of current BIN auctions. (note that the website is refreshed every 10 minutes, see FAQ)

will bring you to Coflnet, with graphs of the selling price of the product in the past.

It is highly encouraged to check on both of the links before investing on the materials, so that you know the potential variation of the selling price.


Unit cost of material(s)

It may be a range of prices if multiple items are needed from the AH.

will bring you to a list of current BIN auctions of the materials. (note that the website is refreshed every 10 minutes, see FAQ)

Disclaimer


Please note that the forge calculator calculates based on the instantaneous price of the items sold in bazaar and auction house, so the prices may fluctuate a lot from time to time, and so do the profit (as we all know the economy of Skyblock is quite unstable).

Think twice before making an investment. As the volume of items in Auction House is much less than items in Bazaar, the risk would be much higher than using the minions profit calculator, as you may make a loss from forges if you are not careful.

FAQ


Q: How often does this website refresh?

A: Bazaar prices would refresh as long as Hypixel API refreshes. While auction prices are refreshed every 10 minutes. As auction prices are stored in my server while bazaar prices are not.
