Koppranickel Necklace of Casting

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Koppranickel Necklace of Casting is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Kyanite ×2, Koppranickel Ingot ×1, Ruby Cotton Yarn ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 21 units, plus 20 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,152 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,199 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 13 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Wind Crystal, 3 Fire Crystal and 1 Lightning Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 63 and Weaver to Lv 62 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 6 raw materials are gathered, and not one of their spots is timed, so nothing in the tree waits on the Eorzean clock.

Of the intermediates, Koppranickel Nugget has the widest use: 124 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
