How does the Albion Online refining calculator work?

Pick a resource line (ore, wood, fiber, hide, or stone), tier, city, and focus settings. The desk estimates material cost after city return rate, compares sell revenue from live AODP prices, and shows silver margin and helper sizes for max-raw or focus budgets.

Which cities have refining bonuses?

Each refined resource has a specialty city with a higher local production bonus. The calculator applies the correct city RRR so you can compare refining at home versus transporting raw materials to the specialty city.

Does focus change refining profit?

Yes. Spending focus raises return rate and usually improves silver per craft cycle, at the cost of daily focus. Use the focus helpers to size batches against your remaining focus pool.

Where do prices come from?

Sell and buy quotes are pulled from the Albion Online Data Project. Prefer recent city samples; when history is thin, UKF fair-value signals (tier-capped) can help flag outliers.

Albion Online refining calculator guide

Specialty cities, focus, and max-raw helpers — how to decide whether to refine or buy the finished resource.

Free refining desk

Open the Albion Online refining calculator and choose ore, wood, fiber, hide, or stone. The desk applies city return rates and live AODP sell/buy quotes so you see silver margin after expected material refunds.

Specialty city vs home city

Each refined line has a specialty city with a higher local production bonus. Transport cost (weight, risk, time) is not fully priced in — use the margin as a signal, then sanity-check haul size in the profit cart or session planner.

Focus and batch sizing

Focus raises return rate and usually improves silver per cycle. Use max-raw / focus-budget helpers to size batches against your remaining daily focus instead of guessing stack counts.

Transmute and refine-scan

Tier-up raw with the transmutation calculator. Scout refine scan ranks buy→refine→sell routes across cities when you want a market-wide shortlist.
