Sailor Deck Shoes ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Sailor Deck Shoes is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Raptor Leather ×1, Rubber ×1 and Silk Thread ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 7 units, plus 14 crystals.

That bill outweighs 4,963 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 598 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 9 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 5 Earth Shard, 3 Earth Crystal, 3 Lightning Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 50, Weaver to Lv 50 and Alchemist to Lv 7 — 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: Silkworm Cocoon (1:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Rubber has the widest use: 191 recipes call for it, spanning four of the eight crafting classes.
