Connoisseur's Red Carpet ★★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Connoisseur's Red Carpet is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — AR-Caean Velvet ×1 and Ophiotauros Leather ×1 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 11 units, plus 22 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,999 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 737 of the 1,968 Weaver ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 16 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 8 Earth Crystal, 8 Lightning Crystal, 4 Lightning Cluster and 1 other kind.

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

2 of the 4 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come 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.
