Deep Hive Ceiling Fan ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Deep Hive Ceiling Fan is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Birch Lumber ×3 and Aurum Regis Nugget ×2 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 37 units, plus 28 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,564 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,209 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 4,464 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 25 Wind Crystal, 2 Wind Cluster and 1 Ice Cluster.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 60 and Goldsmith to Lv 58 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 6 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Gold Ore (9:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Aurum Regis Nugget has the widest use: 185 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
