High Adjudicator's Gavel ★★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one High Adjudicator's Gavel is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Ancient Lumber ×3 and Gold Ingot ×2 — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 18 units, plus 19 crystals.

That bill outweighs 7,380 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 740 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 4 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 15 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 10 Wind Cluster, 4 Lightning Cluster, 3 Ice Cluster and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 50 and Goldsmith to Lv 50 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 7 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Gold Ore (9:00), Native Gold (4:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 18 Eorzean hours, about 53 real-world minutes.

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