Mythril Mesail

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Mythril Mesail is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Aldgoat Leather ×1, Mythril Plate ×1, Mythril Rivets ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 11 units, plus 32 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,999 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 555 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 10 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 22 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 17 Fire Shard, 9 Ice Shard and 6 Earth Shard.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Armorer to Lv 42, Blacksmith to Lv 39 and Leatherworker to Lv 17 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

2 of the 3 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, Mythril Ingot has the widest use: 135 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
