Cobalt Planisphere

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Cobalt Planisphere is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Cobalt Ingot ×2, Rubellite ×2 and Enchanted Electrum Ink ×1 — which resolve to 5 distinct raw materials totalling 11 units, plus 37 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,999 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 839 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 12 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 25 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Fire Shard, 16 Wind Shard and 5 Water Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 48, 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, Cobalt Ingot has the widest use: 145 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
