Patrician's Gloves

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Patrician's Gloves is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Undyed Felt ×2, Linen Yarn ×1, Woolen Yarn ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 14 units, plus 30 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,557 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 823 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 12 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 18 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 20 Lightning Shard, 6 Wind Shard and 4 Water Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 50 and Alchemist to Lv 25 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 5 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Woolen Yarn has the widest use: 131 recipes call for it, spanning five of the eight crafting classes.
