Titanium-barreled Snaphance

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Titanium-barreled Snaphance is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 8 intermediates — Electrum Ingot ×2, Titanium Ingot ×2, Black Firesand ×1 and 5 others — which resolve to 12 distinct raw materials totalling 56 units, plus 62 crystals.

That bill outweighs 12,997 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,767 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 53 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 31 Fire Crystal, 10 Wind Shard, 9 Wind Crystal and 3 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 57, Alchemist to Lv 56, Carpenter to Lv 56 and Goldsmith to Lv 42 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 12 raw materials are gathered, and one of them is time-gated: Abalathian Mistletoe (6:00, 18:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

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