I needed a guide for the non-researchers in my guild to be able to recognize research components that would help me and other casters in our research. This is categorized by the type of component and then sorted by name to make it easy to find information about odd thing on a vendor quickly.
My guild seems to find this useful:
Research Components
First, to give credit, all the information in that file came from this site. I ran some macros over the information to produce a guide for my guild. (I then deleted the macros from the spreedsheet, because Excel *is* a security hole.)
When I'm looking at components, if it's a class I don't have, I generally only care if the components will go well in the bazaar. Anything in the "Advanced" sections is likely to be rare and valuable. Many of them can be used in priest research and all of them are used in post-50 spell research. Anything used in a swatch is also likely to be popular.
When I ask them to collect for a specific person who is training up research, I tell them what to look for in the last four columns. Those columns represents how useful that item is to the given class. Examples:
* My enchanter has 170 skill. He needs a number in the first column over 170.
* One necromancer has 142 skill. He needs a number in the third column over 142.
* My wizard has 190 skill. He needs a number in the last column over 190.
Those four columns are calculated according to my own bizarre idea of what makes an item useful. The number is actually the highest trivial for any recipe made from that item, restricted to those spells that the given class can make.
