New World Hose ★★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one New World Hose is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Cashmere Cloth ×2, Woolen Yarn ×2, Saurian Leather ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 22 units, plus 15 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,402 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,106 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 3 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 12 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 6 Lightning Cluster, 4 Wind Cluster, 2 Earth Cluster and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Weaver to Lv 50, Alchemist to Lv 50 and Leatherworker to Lv 50 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

1 of the 7 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Shroud Tea Leaves (2:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Woolen Yarn has the widest use: 131 recipes call for it, spanning five of the eight crafting classes.
