Oak Low Barrel Planter

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Oak Low Barrel Planter is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Growth Formula Gamma ×2, Oak Lumber ×2, Steel Rivets ×2 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 26 units, plus 31 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,543 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,329 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 24 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Water Shard, 10 Fire Shard, 6 Wind Shard and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 34, Carpenter to Lv 32 and Blacksmith to Lv 29 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 8 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Steel Ingot has the widest use: 125 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
