Classical Signifer's Fingerless Gloves ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Classical Signifer's Fingerless Gloves is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 4 intermediates — Amynodon Leather ×2, Grade 6 Intelligence Alkahest ×2, AR-Caean Velvet ×1 and 1 other — which resolve to 10 distinct raw materials totalling 28 units, plus 38 crystals.

That bill outweighs 9,936 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,414 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 32 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 12 Wind Cluster, 9 Earth Cluster, 8 Lightning Crystal and 3 other kinds.

The chain crosses four disciplines — Leatherworker to Lv 90, Alchemist to Lv 90, Goldsmith to Lv 90 and Weaver to Lv 88 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

6 of the 10 raw materials come out of the ground, and 3 of them are time-gated: Double-edged Herb (10:00, 22:00), Rhodium Sand (4:00, 16:00) and 1 other. The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 6 Eorzean hours, about 18 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, AR-Caean Velvet has the widest use: 136 recipes call for it, spanning six of the eight crafting classes.
