Riviera Cushion ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Riviera Cushion is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Silk Thread ×3, Undyed Woolen Cloth ×2 and Woolen Yarn ×4 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 16 units, plus 18 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,959 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 860 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 2 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 16 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 10 Lightning Shard, 6 Lightning Crystal, 1 Lightning Cluster and 1 other kind.

Every step is Weaver work, from a Lv 38 intermediate up to the Lv 50 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

3 of the 5 raw materials come out of the ground, and 2 of them are time-gated: Silkworm Cocoon (1:00) and Waterfowl Feather (8:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 17 Eorzean hours, about 50 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Silk Thread has the widest use: 175 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
