Murderous Moggle Mogfists ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Murderous Moggle Mogfists is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Saurian Leather ×3 and Cobalt Ingot ×1 — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 23 units, plus 17 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,647 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,208 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 3 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 14 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Earth Cluster, 5 Fire Shard and 4 Wind Cluster.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 50 and Blacksmith to Lv 42 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 7 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Shroud Tea Leaves (2:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Cobalt Ingot has the widest use: 145 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
