Fur-lined Saurian Boots ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Fur-lined Saurian Boots is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Rubber ×1, Saurian Leather ×1 and Wolfram Square ×1 — which resolve to 9 distinct raw materials totalling 9 units, plus 10 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,492 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 665 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 3 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 7 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 5 Earth Cluster, 2 Ice Cluster, 2 Wind Cluster and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 60, Armorer to Lv 50 and Alchemist to Lv 7 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 9 raw materials come out of the ground, and 2 of them are time-gated: Ferberite (3:00) and Shroud Tea Leaves (2:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 23 Eorzean hours, about 67 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Rubber has the widest use: 191 recipes call for it, spanning four of the eight crafting classes.
