Xark was able to make an arcanite rod. I ended up just buying the arcanite bars (3) and the dense stone (4) from the AH. Cost me about 151 g and I tipped Xark 5 g for his help.
I also blew about 80 g buying the last of the materials for my Truefaith Vestment (though I am torn whether I would prefer the Dreadmist Vestment (don't even mention the POS Devout crap, which is worthless IMHO)). The Truefaith required 10 Mooncloth (about 200 g), 4 Golden Pearls (about 60 g), 4 Righteous Orbs (about 140 g), 12 Runecloth Bolts (about 24 g), 2 Runecloth Thread (about 1 g) so it was a pretty substantial investment (though the +73 healing and mana recovery is nice and is very noticeable when I heal and I really like the increase recovery on Fade because I tend to draw a lot of agg healing).
