Rarefied Titanium Frypan

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Rarefied Titanium Frypan is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Titanium Nugget ×3, Dark Chestnut Lumber ×1 and Titanium Rivets ×1 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 26 units, plus 29 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,543 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 942 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 20 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Fire Crystal, 5 Ice Crystal, 4 Earth Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Armorer to Lv 56, Blacksmith to Lv 54 and Carpenter to Lv 54 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

All 4 raw materials are gathered, and not one of their spots is timed, so nothing in the tree waits on the Eorzean clock.

Of the intermediates, Titanium Nugget has the widest use: 112 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
