Rarefied Mythrite Pugiones

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Rarefied Mythrite Pugiones is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Mythrite Nugget ×2, Archaeornis Leather ×1 and Void Glue ×1 — which resolve to 6 distinct raw materials totalling 21 units, plus 18 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,152 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 874 of the 1,932 Blacksmith 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 9 Fire Crystal, 6 Earth Crystal and 3 Water Crystal.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Blacksmith to Lv 52, Alchemist to Lv 51 and Leatherworker to Lv 51 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 6 raw materials come out of the ground, and one of them is time-gated: Coerthan Tea Leaves (0:00, 8:00, 10:00, 12:00, 20:00, 22:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 8 Eorzean hours, about 23 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Mythrite Nugget has the widest use: 102 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
