Doman Steel Frypan Caliente

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Doman Steel Frypan Caliente is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — Tama-hagane Ingot ×3, Persimmon Lumber ×1 and Oroshigane Ingot ×4 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 36 units, plus 45 crystals.

That bill outweighs 11,383 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,196 of the 1,441 Armorer ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 9 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 36 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 31 Fire Crystal, 5 Ice Crystal, 5 Wind Crystal and 1 other kind.

The chain crosses three disciplines — Armorer to Lv 67, Blacksmith to Lv 66 and Carpenter to Lv 66 — 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, Oroshigane Ingot has the widest use: 114 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
