Rarefied AR-Caean Velvet Bottoms

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Rarefied AR-Caean Velvet Bottoms is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 3 intermediates — AR-Caean Velvet ×2, Ophiotauros Leather ×1 and Scarlet Moko Cloth ×1 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 20 units, plus 48 crystals.

That bill outweighs 7,876 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,022 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 16 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 32 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 32 Lightning Crystal, 8 Earth Crystal and 8 Wind Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Weaver to Lv 89 and Leatherworker to Lv 88 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

3 of the 4 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, Ophiotauros Leather has the widest use: 153 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
