Resistance Materiel

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Resistance Materiel is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Resistance Materiel Component ×4 — which resolves to 1 distinct raw material totalling 4 units, plus 18 crystals.

That bill outweighs 3,935 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 746 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 12 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Wind Crystal, 4 Ice Crystal, 4 Water Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 63 and Carpenter to Lv 63 — 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, Resistance Materiel Component has the widest use: 8 recipes call for it, spanning eight of the eight crafting classes.
