Flying Chair ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Flying Chair is 4 crafting steps deep and needs 6 intermediates — Riviera Armchair ×1, Undyed Woolen Cloth ×2, Steel Plate ×1 and 3 others — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 25 units, plus 91 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,313 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,327 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 1 recipe nests deeper.

Only 60 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 31 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 30 Lightning Cluster, 30 Water Cluster, 17 Lightning Shard and 3 other kinds.

The chain crosses five disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 70, Weaver to Lv 42, Armorer to Lv 27, Blacksmith to Lv 26 and Carpenter to Lv 25 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 6 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 3 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Undyed Woolen Cloth has the widest use: 154 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
