Sylphic Flower Vase

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Sylphic Flower Vase is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Electrum Ingot ×3, Growth Formula Gamma ×2, Mahogany Lumber ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 27 units, plus 38 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,763 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,338 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 10 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 28 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 20 Wind Shard, 13 Water Shard and 5 Lightning Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 43, Goldsmith to Lv 42 and Carpenter to Lv 39 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

5 of the 7 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, Electrum Ingot has the widest use: 234 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
