Before the first craft — buy it all at once
One trip to the auction house. Vendor lines are cheaper from the profession vendor than from the board.

26Questions
How this route is built
- What does it cost to level Blacksmithing right now?
- 16.6kg in reagents at today's US auction prices, over about 69 crafts. Sell the results and it comes back to 4.9kg.
- Where do these numbers come from?
- The skill thresholds are read from the game client data for build 12.1.0.68914. The prices are the region-wide auction house, refreshed every few minutes; these are the snapshot taken at 15:57 UTC.
- Why does the route change when I reload?
- Because the prices did. The cheapest recipe for a stretch of skill is whichever one's reagents are cheapest at that moment, and that moves through the day.
A first craft pays Knowledge, not skill, so it is shown as a badge and left out of the craft count. Vendor reagents are priced at the lower of the vendor and the auction house.
