Titanium Claymore

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Titanium Claymore is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Titanium Nugget ×4, Dark Chestnut Lumber ×1, Dhalmel Leather ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 46 units, plus 39 crystals.

That bill outweighs 12,540 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,675 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 32 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 20 Fire Crystal, 7 Earth Crystal, 5 Wind Shard and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses five disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 54, Carpenter to Lv 54, Leatherworker to Lv 54, Alchemist to Lv 51 and Goldsmith to Lv 42 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

5 of the 8 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 3 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Electrum Ingot has the widest use: 234 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
