Maelstrom Materiel

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Maelstrom Materiel is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Maelstrom Materiel Component ×3 — which resolves to 1 distinct raw material totalling 3 units, plus 15 crystals.

That bill outweighs 3,373 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 417 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 9 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Wind Crystal, 4 Lightning Crystal and 3 Ice Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 59 and Carpenter to Lv 59 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

The single raw material does not appear in the gathering data, so the whole bill comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Maelstrom Materiel Component has the widest use: 8 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
