Titanium Axe

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Titanium Axe is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Titanium Nugget ×5, Titanium Rivets ×2, Dark Chestnut Lumber ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 45 units, plus 42 crystals.

That bill outweighs 12,451 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,645 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 35 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 32 Fire Crystal, 4 Wind Crystal, 3 Earth Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 54, Carpenter to Lv 54 and Alchemist to Lv 51 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 6 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Titanium Nugget has the widest use: 112 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
