Yew Longbow

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Yew Longbow is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Clove Oil ×1 and Rosewood Lumber ×1 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 8 units, plus 18 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 11 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 7 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Wind Shard, 5 Ice Shard and 1 Water Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 46 and Alchemist to Lv 14 — 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, Rosewood Lumber has the widest use: 83 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
