Ramie Trousers of Aiming

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Ramie Trousers of Aiming is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Dhalmel Leather ×2, Ramie Cloth ×2, Ramie Thread ×5 and 1 other — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 25 units, plus 28 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,313 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,219 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 8 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 20 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 14 Lightning Crystal, 8 Earth Crystal, 4 Wind Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 55 and Leatherworker to Lv 54 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 4 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, Dhalmel Leather has the widest use: 106 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
