Steel Zweihander

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Steel Zweihander is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Steel Ingot ×3, Boar Leather ×1 and Walnut Lumber ×1 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 14 units, plus 19 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,557 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 699 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 12 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 10 Fire Shard, 7 Earth Shard and 2 Wind Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 34, Leatherworker to Lv 33 and Carpenter to Lv 25 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 5 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, Walnut Lumber has the widest use: 128 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
