Luminous Fiber Fishing Rod ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Luminous Fiber Fishing Rod is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Luminous Fiber ×3, Treated Camphorwood Lumber ×3, Gold Ingot ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 17 distinct raw materials totalling 39 units, plus 35 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,756 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,225 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 5 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 30 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 14 Wind Cluster, 8 Ice Cluster, 6 Fire Cluster and 3 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 60, Alchemist to Lv 60, Blacksmith to Lv 60 and Goldsmith to Lv 50 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

9 of the 17 raw materials come out of the ground, and 7 of them are time-gated: Crystallized Sap (8:00, 20:00), Lumythrite Ore (2:00, 14:00) and 5 others. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 6 Eorzean hours, about 18 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Gold Ingot has the widest use: 184 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
