Vodoriga Sculpture ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Vodoriga Sculpture is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Mythril Ingot ×3, Rose Gold Nugget ×2 and Oak Lumber ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 25 units, plus 26 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,313 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,507 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 21 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Fire Shard, 9 Wind Crystal, 3 Wind Shard and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 50, Blacksmith to Lv 38 and Carpenter to Lv 32 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 6 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Gold Ore (9:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Rose Gold Nugget has the widest use: 179 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
