Sky Pirate's Gaskins of Maiming ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Sky Pirate's Gaskins of Maiming is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Cloud Cloth ×2, Crawler Silk ×2, Grade 1 Strength Dissolvent ×2 and 2 others — which resolve to 12 distinct raw materials totalling 26 units, plus 24 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,543 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,273 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 4 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 20 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 7 Lightning Crystal, 6 Lightning Cluster, 5 Wind Cluster and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Weaver to Lv 60, Leatherworker to Lv 60 and Alchemist to Lv 53 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 12 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Cloud Cotton Boll (0:00, 4:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00), Silkworm Cocoon (1:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 4 Eorzean hours, about 12 real-world minutes.

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