High Steel Trident

Taken all the way down to base materials, one High Steel Trident is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — High Steel Nugget ×3, Beech Lumber ×1, Gagana Leather ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 30 units, plus 24 crystals.

That bill outweighs 10,368 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,066 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 19 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 9 Fire Crystal, 6 Wind Crystal, 4 Water Crystal and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 61, Blacksmith to Lv 61, Leatherworker to Lv 61 and Alchemist to Lv 55 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 8 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 4 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, High Steel Nugget has the widest use: 133 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
