Rarefied Hardsilver Monocle

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Rarefied Hardsilver Monocle is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 5 intermediates — Hardsilver Nugget ×2, Crystal Glass ×1, Larimar ×1 and 2 others — which resolve to 8 distinct raw materials totalling 22 units, plus 33 crystals.

That bill outweighs 8,402 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,234 of the 2,216 Goldsmith ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 24 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 17 Wind Crystal, 5 Water Crystal, 5 Wind Shard and 2 other kinds.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Goldsmith to Lv 56 and Alchemist to Lv 50 — 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, Hardsilver Nugget has the widest use: 88 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
