Griffin Leather Skirt of Maiming ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Griffin Leather Skirt of Maiming is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Griffin Leather ×3, Grade 2 Strength Dissolvent ×2, Astral Silk ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 15 distinct raw materials totalling 39 units, plus 29 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,756 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,756 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 4 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 25 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 10 Lightning Crystal, 6 Wind Cluster, 5 Lightning Cluster and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 60, Alchemist to Lv 60 and Weaver to Lv 60 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

8 of the 15 raw materials come out of the ground, and 7 of them are time-gated: Astral Moraine (0:00, 12:00), Clary Sage (0:00, 20:00) and 5 others. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 6 Eorzean hours, about 18 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Crawler Silk has the widest use: 178 recipes call for it, spanning five of the eight crafting classes.
