High Steel Guillotine

Taken all the way down to base materials, one High Steel Guillotine is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — High Steel Nugget ×3, Titanium Nugget ×2, Beech Lumber ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 10 distinct raw materials totalling 44 units, plus 32 crystals.

That bill outweighs 12,337 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,595 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 27 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 20 Fire Crystal, 5 Earth Crystal, 4 Water Crystal and 1 other kind.

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

6 of the 10 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.
