The API publishes this series as an ordered set of samples over its own 7-day window without per-sample timestamps, so samples are numbered rather than dated — the last 12 of 21 are listed, and the sparkline draws all of them. Change is the first-to-last move, with no minimum-price filter. For the week's biggest moves across every item, see the 7-day movers board.
Where Astronomical Shield comes from
| Skill | Task | Level | Time | XP | XP/hr | Value/hr |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Smithing |
Astronomical Shield | 95 | 9.0s | 2000.0 | 800,000 | 1,789,999,600 |
Rates come straight from the official game data's action times and XP rewards, at base speed with no boosts, tools or clan upgrades. Value/hr is the gross value of the output at the current lowest sell offer, before input costs (the recipe below nets them). A dash means the game data publishes no action time or no XP for that task, which is also why it is absent from the ranked calculator.

Base value is the BaseValue field in the game's own item data, not a
verified shop price. That data publishes no stats, tier or level requirement for an item, so this
table compares published values, live sell offers, tracked wearers and producing tasks — it does
not rank power and it does not claim one of these items upgrades into another.
13 of the 13 have a sell offer right
