Electrum Star Globe

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Electrum Star Globe is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Cobalt Ingot ×2, Electrum Ingot ×1 and Enchanted Electrum Ink ×1 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 13 units, plus 31 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,426 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 883 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 11 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 20 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 15 Fire Shard, 11 Wind Shard and 5 Water Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 45, Alchemist to Lv 43 and Blacksmith to Lv 42 — 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, Electrum Ingot has the widest use: 234 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
