Steel Spear

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Steel Spear is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Crab Oil ×1, Steel Ingot ×1 and Walnut Lumber ×1 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totaling 8 units, plus 12 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,254 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 541 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 6 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 5 Wind Shard, 3 Ice Shard, 2 Fire Shard and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 30, Alchemist to Lv 26 and Blacksmith to Lv 26 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 4 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Walnut Lumber has the widest use: 128 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
