Invincible Miniature ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Invincible Miniature is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 9 intermediates — Camphorwood Lumber ×4, Darksteel Ingot ×2, Steel Rivets ×2 and 6 others — which resolve to 11 distinct raw materials totalling 77 units, plus 107 crystals.

That bill outweighs 13,389 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,476 of the 1,552 Carpenter ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 4 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 103 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 28 Ice Crystal, 28 Wind Crystal, 16 Water Shard and 7 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Carpenter to Lv 60, Blacksmith to Lv 52, Goldsmith to Lv 42 and Alchemist to Lv 41 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

8 of the 11 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Darksteel Ore (1:00). That window comes round once per Eorzean day, every 70 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Electrum Ingot has the widest use: 234 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
