Table Chronometer

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Table Chronometer is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Cobalt Ingot ×5, Cobalt Rivets ×4, Electrum Ingot ×2 and 1 other — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 26 units, plus 67 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,543 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,562 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 11 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 56 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 50 Fire Shard and 17 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 46 and Blacksmith to Lv 43 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 5 raw materials are gathered, and not one of their spots is timed, so nothing in the tree waits on the Eorzean clock.

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