Summer Indigo Shirt ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Summer Indigo Shirt is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Manasilver Nugget ×1, Ovim Wool Yarn ×1 and Refined Natron ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 14 units, plus 31 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,557 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 823 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 14 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 17 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 14 Wind Crystal, 10 Lightning Crystal and 7 Water Crystal.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Weaver to Lv 80, Alchemist to Lv 76 and Goldsmith to Lv 74 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 6 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Ala Mhigan Salt Crystal (0:00, 12:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 12 Eorzean hours, about 35 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Manasilver Nugget has the widest use: 83 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
