Titanium Alloy Ingot ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Titanium Alloy Ingot is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Titanium Nugget ×1 — which resolves to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 9 units, plus 7 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,492 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 597 of the 1,932 Blacksmith ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 3 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 4 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 4 Fire Crystal, 2 Fire Cluster and 1 Earth Cluster.

Every step is Blacksmith work, from a Lv 54 intermediate up to the Lv 60 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

All 4 raw materials are gathered, and one of them is time-gated: Sphalerite (2:00, 6:00, 10:00, 14:00, 18:00, 22:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 4 Eorzean hours, about 12 real-world minutes.

Titanium Alloy Ingot is itself consumed by 22 further recipes, spanning five of the eight crafting classes.
