Mythrite Alembic

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Mythrite Alembic is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Mythrite Nugget ×4 and Mythrite Rivets ×1 — which resolve to 2 distinct raw materials totalling 24 units, plus 21 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,926 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 881 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 15 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 15 Fire Crystal, 3 Earth Crystal and 3 Ice Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Armorer to Lv 52 and Blacksmith to Lv 51 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

Both raw materials are gathered, and no spot for either is timed, so nothing in the tree waits on the Eorzean clock.

Of the intermediates, Mythrite Nugget has the widest use: 102 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
