Saurian Shirt of Striking ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Saurian Shirt of Striking is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 7 intermediates — Saurian Leather ×2, Terminus Putty ×2, Hippogryph Leather ×1 and 4 others — which resolve to 13 distinct raw materials totalling 22 units, plus 28 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,402 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,157 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 3 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 25 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 6 Earth Cluster, 5 Lightning Shard, 3 Earth Crystal and 6 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 50, Alchemist to Lv 50, Goldsmith to Lv 50 and Weaver to Lv 50 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 13 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Gold Ore (9:00), Shroud Tea Leaves (2:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 16 Eorzean hours, about 47 real-world minutes.

Saurian Shirt of Striking is itself consumed by 1 further recipe, all of them Leatherworker recipes.
