Gazelleskin Codex

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Gazelleskin Codex is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Gazelle Leather ×2, Durium Nugget ×1, Enchanted Palladium Ink ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 26 units, plus 39 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,543 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,329 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 10 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 29 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 15 Water Crystal, 10 Earth Crystal, 9 Wind Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 68, Carpenter to Lv 68, Leatherworker to Lv 68 and Goldsmith to Lv 64 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

7 of the 8 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Durium Nugget has the widest use: 142 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
