Eikon Cloth Brais of Maiming ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Eikon Cloth Brais of Maiming is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 6 intermediates — Grade 1 Strength Dissolvent ×3, Eikon Cloth ×2, Eikon Leather ×2 and 3 others — which resolve to 14 distinct raw materials totalling 49 units, plus 47 crystals.

That bill outweighs 12,749 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,869 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 42 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 13 Lightning Cluster, 10 Wind Cluster, 6 Earth Cluster and 4 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Weaver to Lv 60, Alchemist to Lv 60, Leatherworker to Lv 60 and Goldsmith to Lv 58 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

9 of the 14 raw materials come out of the ground, and 5 of them are time-gated: Frost Cotton Boll (6:00, 18:00), Wattle Bark (2:00, 14:00) and 3 others. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 7 Eorzean hours, about 20 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.
